    Google's New Algo - Anti-SEO. I am not able to figure out How a site will rank Or will get natural links if we don't get backlinks in the beginning. How a person will find our site when it is launched.. Is there anyone who goes to the 10th page to see a new site?

    And where is the quality when there are blank sites ranking on top?

    Man! That 3% can really overkill, doesn't it? Well, a lot of SEO's survived the recent Google Panda update, so, we should be able to cope with that.

    I hope you'll be able to revive your site and bring it back on page 1.

    My site benefited from all the panda updates, which led me to believe I must be on the right track, but this change has hit it. Having said that, it improved from yesterday to today so I think it is too early to think about looking for problems, I will leave it a week or so and see what happens.

    Arn't these google serp changes fun !?!

    I know of a small business who is thinking about closing down, laying his 2 staff off, all becuase he is so dependent on web leads - I am suggesting he holds back and waits for things ot settle. His website looks good, not spammy, but in the eyes of a google robot he is terminated.

    Google needs to start understanding the responsibilities and dependencies from their search results. Sure make changes to get rid of spam, but maybe they should do it in a more incremental way ?

    Matt Cutts, if you are reading here on DP (some hope!), please note :)

    Matt cutts or google don't care if their latest algo change (to improve google) affects a small business.

    If he is dependent on web leads and that's where he get his sales why don't he push adwords ?

    Your friend should already have started to focus on adwords while he ranked and made revenue from serp keywords.

    This shouldn't come as a surprise, what worked 2 years ago arent working today.

    The internet game is all about adapting.

    I saw a drop in many keywords on many sites from page 1 to not in the top 50. Interestingly, though it has had an impact, it has not been quite the traffic bloodbath I would have anticipated, for the most part. I'm curious to dig through the numbers and figure out why.

    If some of the results we've seen are any indication, I expect Google is working on fixing this. I doubt it'll be rolled back, but if the goal here was increased quality, it was missed. Perhaps not in all cases, but certainly enough to cause concern. I see at least Viagra.com ranks where it should for its own keyword again, even if two compromised sites still rank near it, while the make money online spam sites seem to have been addressed. No doubt manually in both instances, so it's hardly fixing the problem.

    For one site where I went from #2 to page 4, now the top 10 consists of 8 sites that are irrelevant to the niche (quality, authority sites... but just not what the keyword is about). Of the 2 sites that are relevant, 1 is a broken dead end (though I don't expect a search engine to be able to tell that), and 1 is only of any use because it's just a bunch of (blatantly biased) links to the sites that Google should be linking to. In comparison, Bing's results, which are similar to what Google's used to be, are relevant.

    Eh, I wouldn't say they're anti-SEO. There are people that have optimized their sites the right way & didn't get hit.

    Few things that will help you improve your rankings, after this BS Algorithm. Hopefully

    - Keep your on-page targeted keywords down to a minimum (Very low, lower than anytime before). (If you repeat the keywords on your sites pages too many times that's one thing that Goggle will get you for). I think this one is the big one Google went after for this update.

    - (Wait a while until the dust clears for this one, if your rankings don't go back up) You might have to get rid of some of your reciprocal link trades. Keep your reciprocals low.

    - Build Links much, much slower than before. A few here and there, no going nuts. maybe even once a week for a couple of minutes. Varie your link text and be sure to use your site or site domain more often for link text now.

    - Build quality content that doesn't over expose your keywords.

    - If you have an exact keyword domain, be sure to work on it a lot more (New updates and great content). I think Google deranked low content quality SEO'd exact keyword domain names.

    - Yes lower down your off site SEO for a while to a mininum. Do some but not nearly as much as before. If you were a affected you might be on Google Crap List.

    - After a month goes by and your rankings are still bad Boycott Google and target MSN, Bing and Yahoo which all use the same search results and as of right now have much better, cleaner, more relevant search results than Google AS OF RIGHT NOW.

    There's a right way to do seo and a wrong way..only the folks doing things the easy way have a reason to complain..what give me the right to have an opinion? I have a site that went from 6,000 daily uniques to 120 daily uniques..and guess what I took it like a man and started doing things the right way..guess what also these updates have benefitted sites like mine which have unique content. So keep tossing your money away on auto seo software, and spam commenting software..you'll just keep getting google smacked. Senuke to me is one of the biggest issues on the net.,,when you use it its fine but when you become the target of it you'll understand what i mean.
