    Yes, another update rolled. Google claims it's for low quality EMD. But my site, nowhere close to EMD, got affected too badly..I am clueless.May be it's the Google dance for now.But no one knows what Google is trying to implement. Is it bad or not? I do not know.

    My website where I worked in the past 2 years has droped from serp, I got almost no google visitors since 7-8 hours.
    And like someone said, is far from a spammy EMD website.

    Looks like someone has a war on exatct match domains:

    "Daniel Foley @ danielfoley
    @ mattcutts Do you ever go out and enjoy life? Or do you literally live for Google? Go and have a beer and drop the whole Google thing "

    My 3 high earning EMD sites have disappeared completely. The were on page 1 for domain keywords and now not even in the first 10 page. So annoyed. All contents were unique. I posted two unique articles per week and now nothing, zilch, nada. Arrrrghhhh. Hate this industry.

    One site of mine was hit bad also. From 1st page it went nowhere near the first 5 pages. This is also not an exact match site with good quality. I hope for adjustment to this algorithm because so far is seems like a mess.
    Google's dictatorship is stepping on too many people's nerves / money. Something should be done about this!

    Yeah it looks like things are being moved around again. Living in fear that google will lower my website serp isn't nice. Think it's time to find other ways to generate traffic.

    My EMDs were not overly affected. My main keywords remain intact but I lost a few minor keywords.

    EMD = Exact Match Domain

    From what I heard, they also targeted partial match domains, where your domain contains the query and other words. So if someone searches "buy cars," domains like "buy-cars-online.info" should have a harder time ranking well.
