Interesting, Deb. I've seen my clients' pretty well ranked sites vanish from their positions for days, at times too. What do you mean they won't be doing deep crawls, though?

Google just went through a very large change in how they do things. It's taken approximately 6-8 weeks to complete, during which time pretty much all indexing was suspended. There is talk there will be no more deep crawls except for maybe one final one sometime after the current Google Dance. The Google Dance began just this morning, so the server updates are ongoing right now and take 3-5 days to complete. At this time all page ranking is in a fluctuating stage. Until the dance is over nobody can count on their sites ranking anywhere. Everyone is just waiting it out, many holding their breath. My best suggestion to you is not to do anything for a week or so, and then investigate his ranking again and go from there. The improvements they attempted to incorporate should benefit us all, as updating will take place more often and more regularly is my understanding.
