Finally the panda update slapped 4 of my sites. they are 3+ years old, all push down from #1 to #6 7 8, one actually push all the way back to page 8.

The rest of my network is fine, hope thats it for now, others stay up there. My sites have gone through alot of updates and everytime they stood strong and never dropped half a spot. But this Panda update it just shook some of them. I hope is temporary, but seems like this is a big one its going to last for quite a while.

got slapped pretty hard myself on several sites, and have been watching everything 'panda related' trying to come up with an idea/pattern on how to counter-react. only got some theories at this point that i'm testing out

All of my stuff is original content and all is very closely related to the keywords I am targeting so I didn't even notice the update happened other than some of my sites moved up.

The Panda bit me, but in strange ways. It lowered PR on a few of my sites, but my traffic and rankings improved on those sites.... When I check my rankings for the same keywords re: those sites on Bing, I slipped on Bing by at least 2 - 3 pages. PR maintained on another site, but nowhere to be found on the serp's :-( Definitely going to be doing some tweaking due to the Panda.

Got slapped in a pretty weird way! Traffic is the same but sales dropped like never before.

Not sure if it's Google's Panda or the fact that my sites suddently suck

Rick, I have been wondering if that is a different issue.
