Hello all, I follow alot of SEO news and there is some chatter about Caffeine possibly rolling out this weekend. I have done a press release about it and what i have found. Let's see if this is true. The release is here Google Caffeine going live Labor Day weekend?
too slow google caffeine live? seeya in the charts whoops too late http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=google+caffeine+live+&aq=f&oq=&aqi=
well WMW do, dont they? and the guys on there are often right to the day with their predictions. i think its pretty likely. im gonna be watching closely for sure
Update: Some of the serps have been starting to match The caffeine test DC since yesterday. I have noticed this since late yesterday and others have noticed it a little sooner. Anyone else seeing this? I think the rollout may have started. Here is a quote from WMW of what others are noticing. "What is interesting is that the initial link (for me) now shows full ads, but mimics the exact same SERP's that were shown last night on different DC's. Whatever differences there were on that sandbox url are now matched with regular serps. "
I wouldn't say the same, but there's something afoot, definitely different from previous decaffeinated, more like a blending in of the 2 serps which is how it often looks, I think it's started.. who's nervous?
Not nervous here just waiting for the flux to end once theis starts propogating through the data centers.
Nice press release. I was at a conference last weekend and we had an SEO expert speak to us about Caffeine. I'm still not all that clear on what the difference is and what I should be telling or warning my clients about it.
http://www2.sandbox.google.com/ Please try your search again in a few hours. We are upgrading elements of our data center. The Caffeine sandbox should be available for searching again in a few hours. Maybe they are updating now. To be continued...
I think it might have already started, in the UK at least. The results have been noticably different since yesterday.
Search terms that I have not seen come up in a long time are popping up everywhere. I am likeing this rollout so far.
Lol, I was under the impression that Google Caffeine has already been live, wow. Well, I'm not sure, I've been seeing welcome changes though.
Google always loves to do major updates on long weekends. I still miss the excitement of old days of Googledance You are on a vacation at a beach and ur buddy calls up, hey googledance is on. Bingo there goes the vacation.
I've noticed the flux started late last night. Like the above stated, some keywords I have that I'm not pushing for bounced up into the light sort of speak.. Can't wait for the full on change!!!
hmm that's very odd, was expecting that post to just settle in at the top of that search, and it's gone this morning which I assumed meant they've dropped the post temporarily, but on looking it's dropped to position #30. they never do that, we can usually always outrank DP for whatever the term of the time is. it looks suspiciously like a manual -30.
Looks like I'm seeing caffeine for all of my sites and keywords. My sites have not changed much from earlier positions. Based on the KW I may be up or down one or two spots. /*tom*/
