I know there have been an update a few months back that many EMD sites are losing their ranking power, however for the past month it seemed to be that a lot of EMD sites are actually ranking high again, so much so that they're even higher than aged non EMD sites with backlinks. Have anyone else here noticed this? For example, go to google.com.au (australia) and search "insurance brokers sydney" and you will see what I mean.
From what I've seen, EMD sites have always had good power and the EMD update didn't do much to stop that.
I have seen SOME changes, but they were mainly non EMD sites being ranked higher for keywords that they dont have in their domain.
EMD still ranks higher than others... In EMD update, those sites were penalized which were of low quality!
