oh…cr@p… here i am just recovering from Y!’s yo-yo and now G’s gone and done a dance too? But what the heck am I complaining about… I’m one of those one-year old site guys and if I debut at page #20 I’d still smile… LOL!

The ” jumping” doesn’t seem to be restricted to Google alone.
On Yahoo, for one of our keywords, our ranking changes from #2 to #67 sometimes within minutes. This started around a week ago. I assume it will eventually stabilize.

Spencer…yes I would…but sometimes even the whitest of hats can get caught in “collateral damages” of updates and get crappy rankings….but mostly I see little increases which I feel is due to slow and steady link growth.

Thanks for the update Jim!
Do you agree that the more White Hat your SEO is the less your changes in the SERPS when a dance occurs?

Jim, I’m seeing the same thing and the best part is there are a number of one year old sites that are coming in from #1000 to top two pages in G. Goodbye sandbox for these sites!
