    Absolutely destroyed our new site! The site was ranking well for a number of good terms and I don't do any black hat seo. The site is a voucher code / offer site and in my view offered good content to my members. The update wiped the site completely out of the rankings even though the site still exists in the index. We aren't even appearing for the long tail search terms.

    It seems like Google is punishing many sites with "duplicate content", which can be interpreted as in "your site shows the same coupons like others". You know... Google loves to punish sites that show pretty much the same content as other sites. Just something I saw very often lately ...

    Yeah I thought that but it is a real problem because the vouchers are pulled in via a feed, the idea being that site can be automated. I am not sure what to do next, there is the possibility that I can apply a check to voucher when it first arrives i.e place a pending on it and then allow it to be reworded by me.

    Google normally does not want to harm sites, actually they wanted to protect from spam and low quality pages.. if you're well & good enough in making great site then Google supports you definitely.

    PS: But sometimes I say they are taking some extreme steps for their Adwords Advertizers..

    I have to agree with this in general. I've rarely seen a 'worthy site' be knocked down because of an update.

    I was pushed up to first pages on all my establihed sites. I even go as far as refusing the google bots from indexing my content on the robots.txt

    It seems that the worse I treat google indexers, the better ranked I get.

    I personally enjoy new updates because even though it temporarily affects us, most of the people it affects will just give up which will leave less competition when we figure out the new algorithm :). For this new update I have found that getting a diverse amount of backlinks has become extremely important!
