Much relief over the weekend - the steady fall in visitor numbers has arrested and volumes have plateaued out.
The results from Rank pulse suggest that the "Google Update" activity has ceased now - with quiet days all over the weekend.
But our Reladvance observations are showing continuing changes for us - mostly gently positive. It has also been interesting to see the consistency of results across data centers varying over time. Most days there is some variation on the small sample of keywords and pages we have been watching. Then every so often all variation is eliminated and a day or two later the local experiments/changes start again. Not only SERPs but also pages indexed are showing this sort of variation.
It is tempting to think that this is Big Daddy at work but perhaps it was always like that and we just didn't see it because we weren't using Reladvance or MacDar's Google Dance pages.
And we've had an e-mail from a satisfied customer - more of that tomorrow ....
