It's normal that when you make updates to your content the value of the page is changing and google recalculates it. Try to make changes only when necessary especially if you're editing:
- revenue delivering pages
- good ranking pages
You can use the low traffic pages and not good rankings as a test to see what is most beneficial. Try to group all your changes and make them only if necessary.
If you're doing that for freshness as I said before use articles or other pages which will gain new keywords, may be new links and build value there to flow to your listings pages.
You don't want your listings to bounce up and down in serps.

We have large Ecommerce site selling Johnson outborad engine parts ect. when we update i have seen drop in rankings. We found a lot of dupcate content and are fixing it. but this is taking a long time. So we have been updating web per sub domain. so what do you think once a day or once a month

Hi Trish, it really depends on what your site is about. If you're a news website google will expect many daily updates but if you're a less dynamic market it may be probably fine for you to make changes in longer periods. However to add freshness to a more stable website you may also:
- build a blog or an article sections which always attracts new users and helps feeding your social profiles
- change the order of your listings weekly so they may seem more dynamic than they are(not under google eyes but for users)

2 version of meta description and title
Hi guys, I have seen two versions of meta descriptions and meta titles for one URL (this is happening on a few of my pages). Initially, I thought Google is pulling the information from my page content. However, it is not the case. I have realized the information showing on SERPs are very old description (years ago information). Just a bit background information, we had a new website launched in April this year. The issue stated since the new website launch. Anyone experienced similar situation?

What is the best way to change keywords?
I have a client who is moving and I'll need to redirect their site to a new city. Taking local out of the picture, what is the best way to convert the site? Here are somethings I've already done. Changed the title keywords Ensured the page grade is an A for the new keywords. Changed the alt tags on images on the front page. Since I made these changes, the website has actually fallen in ranks from what it was initially ranking for the new city (the website was already ranking organically on page 2 and has dropped to mid page 3.) Thanks in advance

What is the best way to optimise a site that wants to target one service in multiple locations?
Hello! I would like to get some opinions about the best way to optimise a site/pages/URL's for a client that offers one service in multiple locations. The client has done work in various areas of the UK and wants to be found for these locations. They don't have addresses in these locations. What would be the best way to set up the pages/URLs for each location? Is there any reason why I can't have, for example, a main Portfolio page which has content about the service and a link to each portfolio in the different locations, e.g. /portfolio/london, /portfolio/hampstead, portfolio/kensington. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks Kerry

If I want to rank well on one keyword would it be better to optimize multiple pages on the website for the keyword or should I only optimize one page for that keyword?

Custom Web Fonts
If we decide to use custom web fonts - using CSS + linked .ttf files - will there be any sort of issue in terms of being looked down upon by SE's? I realize there would be a slight increase in download time - but other than that has anyone experienced any negative effects?

Changing page titles and google penalties?
I just recently learned that changing your page title earns you a google penalty. Unfortunately i learned this after playing around with my page titles a bit to get the most optimal page titles. Does anybody know how long this google penalty lasts? is it forever? or just temporary?
