Do you have a speculation about when Google will update?

• Do you think there has been a backlinks update?
• Do you think there has been a PR update?
• Are you seeing Google fluctuations?
• Do you think there has been an algorithm update?

Have you been keeping track of how your site(s) is/are doing all these fluctuations?

These fluctuations won't die down, it seems like we've been reporting these tremors and fluctuations a lot since the beginning of the year and even more so since the release of the March 12th core update.

We are seeing more Google update chatter around these fluctuations from around March 29th through today, April 1st - and no, this is no April Fools joke...

Google Ranking Update Fluctuations Continue (3/29-4/1)
