      We have been with SEOMOZ for just a couple of weeks now.

      We impemented all the recommendations made in page analysis and crawl errors but since making changes we have started to fall in ranking for these keywords.  Should we undo all his work or sit it out.

      Why would our rankings fall if these changes are for the better ?

      Thanks

          Ranking don't always increase right away (although it's ironic that they seem to drop fast, eh). Google will need to recrawl and reprocess your information. SEO "stuff" doesn't always make sense - and, while I am sure you did everything correctly, there could be something else going on.

          As Stephan posed, if you are willing to share your URL, someone may be able to peak and see if they notice something you haven't.

            Thanks

            The website is www.kerryblu.co.uk

            Google has crawled the site site the changes were implemented and the result appeared to be a sudden drop in ranking.

              I agree with Stephen and Andrea.

              Sit it out.   I would allow 2 more weeks for a powerful site and a month for a site that is new or without a lot of connectivity.

                OK in 2 seconds - your redirects are incorrect

                http://www.kerryblu.co.uk redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/

                but

                http://kerryblu.co.uk/ redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/index.asp

                Aslo change the redirect on kerryblu.com to point to correct url

                Where else might you have got this wrong? are you running Xenu or IIS crawls?

                You also have too little content on your pages

                http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/bridal-earrings-2-c.asp

                http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/crystal-allure-bridal-jewellery-set-869-p.asp

                I see you have been linkbuilding with the term "Kerry Blu - wedding accessories"  make sure your link text diversity is natural

                  Thanks for taking the time to have a look.

                  Not too sure I can do much with the re directs ( except the .com ) as it is a limtation of the company hosting the site.

                  Will try a little more content and link variation too.
