So, i am already aware of the BERT that took place around 26th or something. The problem is i am seeing huge rankings drops from Oct 28th to date now.

Is this the effect of BERT or i messed up a bit as i did brought Press Release and few Guest Post package for my site.

Anyone seeing anything similar? It's a legitimate site.

same for me, all of my keywords dropped.. this is crazy, I hope this will stable and my keywords will be back to previous spots. I was doing really well, top 1-2 spots for my keywords now many dropped over page 2... don't know what to do. I checked also Google Search Console and there is no info about any kind of penalty.

If you target long-tail questions like keywords then BERT could be the problem. If not another update may be rolling out.

Give it a few days these rankings bounce for a while they’ll settle in coming days, just keep adding links and content and you’ll be good

Hmmm, My ranking were stable in top 4, 5 and 10th places for the past 4 months. I did added some guest posts and PR to further boost them up.

How about your competitor's ranking? is that stable?
 
Then it might be an issue with links built, let's wait for a few days, hope keywords settle on the top. :)
 
Lol my rankings are going thru the roof. If you have good concise and well structured content this update = Awesome. Has nothing to do with links.
 
Rankings in SERP trackers appear stable, even showing some small increases for certain KWs. But there's been a significant drop in traffic of around 10-15%.

another thing that can be done, update your PBNs and web 2.0 with new content.
 
There's a long thread about this. Search for google update and sort newest first.
 
My site got completely destroyed too, but that has been going on for about 15 days now. Steadily dropping traffic from 350 unique/day to ~50
