    Google made algorithm change last Thursday, which creates huge impact on SERP.Most of big and websites which doing pretty well since 2005, got huge rank fall on Google.We got good impact on SERP after Mayday update, but this change becoming drastic for some big websites,now the thing is Google is showing pure results by this latest algo?My personal opinion is scrappers sites and blogs still doing well for some cases and original sites going down on SERP?Is that algo change is justified engineering so far?Lots of questions comes but the answer is keep patience and watch the Google’s movement.Another cruel part of this algo is some people will loose their job or some might get pink slip.Hope Google will balance everything…

    Now the question comes from SISTRIX who are the loosers:
    # Domain Change SISTRIX (before) SISTRIX (after) # KWs (before) # KWs (after)
    1 wisegeek.com -77% 121,58 28,22 74.024 21.940
    2 ezinearticles.com -90% 65,08 6,65 184.508 54.277

    4 hubpages.com -87% 55,16 7,40 152.998 50.178
    5 buzzle.com -85% 43,25 6,55 86.472 24.423

    14 mahalo.com -84% 20,49 3,23 33.875 9.740
    15 business.com -93% 17,24 1,13 21.556 4.813
    16 doityourself.com -77% 20,89 4,90 23.256 6.870
    17 merchantcircle.com -85% 18,43 2,67 93.347 34.681
    18 thefind.com -83% 18,95 3,27 74.506 45.495
    19 findarticles.com -90% 16,98 1,74 64.810 20.189
    20 faqs.org -91% 16,52 1,46 33.648 11.142
    21 tradekey.com -89% 16,83 1,79 37.364 16.268
    22 answerbag.com -91% 12,93 1,11 67.314 26.054
    23 trails.com -87% 12,05 1,62 38.346 8.511
    24 examiner.com -79% 10,54 2,19 70.781 31.272
    25 allbusiness.com -88% 8,86 1,08 16.457 6.034

    We can see, the site got huge impact on SERP who used scratch contents and content firms….but if this the point then what about eHow, eHow still wins the game.?Another question coming if some one is distributing his articles to other websites is it a penalty?If yes why this will be counted as penalty where the original content owner is distributing or syndicating his own get the link back from the website and additional visitors from that particular website..Hope Google will identify which one is distributed by the original owner which one by the scrapper just to get link back..

    Few winners are from SEO Book author AAron Wall:
    [​IMG]
    Another question arises is Google is biased for the big brands for this algo?If you see the changes Associated Content is one strong looser where a point comes on Wepronews this one run by Yahoo.Another important part was:Bing Engineer Accuses Google Of Profiting Off Search Spam, so it was debated that Google need more better results.

    Now, we need to figure out whats Google’s direction for latest algorithm that a Big online retailer’s to a small website owner get benefit from it, make them profitable.

    The original game is for Big websites and mainly content based websites....where traffic decreased 30% to 40% and SERP movement is accordingly downsized...in case of small and new websites having a less impact with this algo change, till the date...though still waiting for more changes on this Farmer algo to get some specific signals...which one loosing and gainer why..

    The impact seems to be erratic and unpredictable (past some huge link farms). Someday I hope to be worried about my relative position on page 1.
