Well I noticed another big change on placement on our search terms. I am again down to oblivian from holding #3-#8 for most our important searchs. Many of our competitors made a big shift today as well. Time to hang on and see if we bounce back in a week as usual.

I also noticed a substantial changes in my rankings. Not down to oblivion, but much worse than the average daily swing.

After looking furthur it seems that google missed many of my links in this last update so I am hoping once they are picked up again I will bounce back

How did you determine that?

Hope you did not used the link: command.

I used both the marketleap tool and link command.

Do not rely on them. What Google choose to show as a backlink in the sample (and is also used by Marketleap) has NO relationship what-so-ever to what Google actually use to determine PR and rankings.

Thanks then it must be something else. I have been in the top ten all year for most search terms. I dropped out one other time earlier this year but was back about 10 days later.
