anyone saw major changes on G today?

I had to reverify one site. I also noticed that late last night and this morning the estimated CPC was not present in G Keyword tool. I have read the last time that happened it's because Google was making some changes. The CPC just came back a couple of hours ago.

I had to reverify one of my sites in webmaster tools as well this morning. So far its ranking is still the same on page one, hopefully I will gain some more rank now that they know someone is paying attention to the site :)

The bad thing is that google webmasters only show stats from a few days ago. If something happened today youll see in some days.

There is something happening, my greyhat sites have about the same. Pure spam sites have lost some rankings and my sites without links went up.
 
A big PR update happened. I have hundreds of sites that dropped in PR and these all hurt some of my money sites. I guess just keep linking and get the PR's back up.
 
Something has happened and it's not the usual Google Dance.
I have seen a lot of changes in serp in different niches.
 
This is FAR from the usual Google dance. They broke something, I noticed that when checked one of my minor blog, which ranks first for some less popular niche.

Today it was ouranked by that website hxxp://vvv.thompsoncoburn.com/ the funny thing they are not related to my niche AT ALL. They are not even close to it.

It looks like a bug of big G. Probably it is not the only place where such a thing happened.
 
What bothers me the most is that I'm MISSING THE SHOW! :D
That's not fair. I can hardly see any SERP changes in my niches. NADA!
 
Whoa Folks! I just got blasted in Google webmasters tools. 28 messages and rising concerning doorway pages! All of these sites were exact match domains. However quite a few were not actually what they defines as doorway site at all!

3-4 words EMD?
Autoblogs on WordPress CMS?
Duplicate content / spinned content?

I hardly doubt it they will devalue 2-words EMDs.
 
Saw excellent changes in my ranks today, hit page 1 for some very competitive terms, very pleased.

What is a doorway page?
 
I too have noticed some major changes. The main thing though is that they were all positive. Across the board, and many new keywords that weren't ranking before.

Whats interesting though is that I go more towards the grey hat link building side. I utilize many services here for link building and don't do anything else. I'll be curious as to the underlying reason and main changes.
 
I saw no changes in my SERPs today. Still holding at #7 for my best site. None of my other sites moved either.
 
Solid #1 position for my big keywords.

No changes at all here.

heres Googles definition:
"
Doorway pages are typically large sets of poor-quality pages where each page is optimized for a specific keyword or phrase. In many cases, doorway pages are written to rank for a particular phrase and then funnel users to a single destination.
Whether deployed across many domains or established within one domain, doorway pages tend to frustrate users, and are in violation of our Webmaster Guidelines.
Google's aim is to give our users the most valuable and relevant search results. Therefore, we frown on practices that are designed to manipulate search engines and deceive users by directing them to sites other than the ones they selected, and that provide content solely for the benefit of search engines. Google may take action on doorway sites and other sites making use of these deceptive practice, including removing these sites from the Google index."

Generally 3 or 4 words two of them because of the location Cape Cod.

Html sites and wordpress CMS, no autoblogs, and content either original or highly spun, tested and in good english.

Im really thinking its in the linking back to my company site. I need more crap in between so to speak.
 
Thanks for the heads up
Checked on some of my sites went from 11th position to 600th position
SUCKS!!!
