Expect the September Indiranks to be low
For some reason the Mozranks showed a big spurt in August 2013 and as a result all Indibloggers enjoyed good Ranks. Looks like now mozrank is back to its pre-Aug days so expect your Indiranks to decrease and dont feel sad because you know the reason why Indirank will decrease
Ohh.. is it... and I thought only my moz Rank had leaped!! Any reason for that jump @VP?
IMO, Shri, to me, it seems to be a bug in Mozrank update. It just fell drastically just a few days after we had an indirank update in August. And you're not alone. I, Ranjith, Pankti, ND were also affected, maybe, VP has also faced this issue. I'm quoting a few people because I know that blogs of these people suffered.
Already expecting a drastic fall in the september Indirank. There was a drastic fall in the MozRank just days after the last IndiRank update in August. As a result, a lot of the users encountered a drastic fall in the moz ranks of their blogs. Maybe, SeoMoz had some bug which spiked the mozranks of all our blogs and websites. This seems to be resolved now, so most of us should expect a decline in IndiRank for September.
Yep Shri CK is right No Idea about the jump but I guess it was something to do with the Googles Hummingbird in some way.
But, how could Hummingbird affect the MozRanks? I don't know too much details as to what goes into calculating mozrank (SeoMoz too likes to keep their recipes secret, as IB), but, I do not expect any drastic change in the mozrank that could be caused by Google updating their search algo.
AFAIK, Google Hummingbird is just an updated set of search algorithms to further modify the Penguin and Panda updates, and has been in place for around a month (since the news about it broke out a few days back). Our blogs had a somewhat similar mozrank (compared to what we have now) before the Indirank update (don't exactly know when this drastic change of inflated moz rank happened), and after that again, we can see a drastic decline in our mozranks, somewhat near our last month's mozrank (we can see it in IndiRank stats for July). So, in my opinion, this drastic change in MozRank can't be attributed to Hummingbird, as it's to me seems to be a correction in a buggy mozrank update (the way our IndiRank gets corrected for people for whom the blog feed is not detected).
CK AD Humminingbird is not a update it is full redesign of the Google search algo whereas the Panda and Penguin were Caffeine updates and Mozrank spurt happened during the same time when the hummingbird was let loose. You can read the Danny Sullivans Hummingbird FAQ here. I know it is far fetched but I think somehow everything is linked. And AD hummingbird has been good to me as well as my adsense Revenue has jumped up
The entire universe is interrelated. The flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil can set off a tornado in Texas.
Wow Ranjith, nice article, thanks
Ranking is just Ranking.. No worries
Yep a Ranking is ranking but it sure sounds nice to have a 80+ Ranking and getting 2 points for every vote
2 points per vote..?
You din know that
VP, I still don't care if my ranking goes below 80
election votes
