How Does Jagger Compare with Florida & Bourbon?

well... only time will tell then...

 

I believe the Florida Update effected a great many more sites. It also marked a change where Google put much more emphasis on inbound links and a lot less on on-page optimization.

For anyone interested in "visiting/re-visiting" the past...

I've been hit hard. The same thing happened with Bourbon, it took several weeks to come back. I'm not looking forward to the next couple of weeks. Arrrggg.

 

But in Bourbon, did you come back worse, better or the same?

And from your post, you seem to have at least some faith in things coming bcak to be a little more favorable, no? Are your keywords extremely competitive?

 

Jagger == Boubon.

This should be called the Jager update.

 

I would say I came back the same, but it took 2+ weeks or so. My prime keyword is not that competitive at all. "Chemistry question".

 

Was Bourbon the one this past February? I rebounded from that one about 2 months later but "Jagger" has hit me even harder.

Bourbon hit only a part of my site, the shopping mall. Jagger has hit ALL My pages and all my sites.

 

Do you mean jagermeister vs bourbon? I don't get it.

 

Exactly.

 

Hot dam!

I've been reading all these posts about Jagger for days.....

....and this is the best idea I've seen so far.

I'm gonna go get me one too.

I'll be back in a week or so, to see how this all turned out.

 

If Jagger is rewarding publishers based on quality and originality of the contents, I have no qualm about it. For a while I've been seeing competing websites using same contents taken from each other and hogging the top 10 result.

 

That's a pretty big "IF" at this point...

 

in my category, 3 of the page 1 sites (the much loved directory sites) all have adsense above the fold and basically the only real linkage/visible data in that 800x600 view is adsense ... and the header images.

sweet.

 

Hey, they gotta find the money somewhere for all those Christmas bonuses they'll be handing out at the Googleplex...

 

still not seeing any changes on my end... Kind of hope I don't unless it was to pull a couple of lame sites out of the list.

 

I am seeing the exact opposite effect.

 

WShoa! Whoa! Whoa!

TMI!

We don't want to know ANYTHING about what's going on with your end. Seriously. Let's stick to the topic here, which (I think) is an 80 year old rock band getting drunk at Disneyland.
