Hi Roy
I didn't expect much over the w/e - it never does. And I was expecting
the 3 DCs to return, and they did.
So, although things are bad, just hold tight and I think everything
will be okay again.
One site of mine was between 9 and 40 for different highly targetted
keywords. These are no longer in the top 500.
But, as the 3 DCs are back again showing results, I see that I am
still where I was before the hassles.
Worried ? No.
Impatient ? a bit.
plh
Paul
