    It appears that links from non-relevant sites may now be discounted. This of course places a premium on relevant links.

    A couple webmarketing newsletters claim they are losing recip links...then recovering the ones that are highly relevant, in articles, on topic pages etc. I take those reports with a grain of salt though since their main purpose is to appear to know things...rather than actually knowing anything.

    Haven't noticed any changes. Recip links are still ok for me - I'm going to exchange links further... At least I'm sure that won't hurt my websites

    As far as I know, there's NO real evidence of the fact that Jagger davalues recip links (except those marketing ads, of course)

    Just today I also got a newsletter (SitePro News) with the mentioned article ("Are Reciprocal Links Dead? Google's Jagger Update")... It sounds convincing, but I wouldn't be too sure, especially after reading all the posts about it here..

    I haven't noticed much of a change except for a slight drop in traffic this summer and on that may be caused by various of other things..

    Thanks
    Daniel

    Links are still important, but AGE of links is MUCH more important.

    I havent noticed any extra value or devalue put on relavant links or recipricals, or pretty much any strategy yet. However I think the important thing to learn from this is to diversify your SEO strategy so if in the future they do decide to devalue something it will effect you less.

    I was running link building campaigns for our sites. Those were mostly reciprocal links.
    After the update I am little confused.

    There is no proof of anything right now - at least that is concrete. Settle back and continue to build good content and diversify your marketing efforts.

    In essence the impact of Jagger is to prioritise relevant links. I don't believe there's any real impact on reciprocal links.

    What proof do you have that this is true? I read a lot of people asserting this but no one can provide any hard facts.

    I can't proof it, but I have better ranks by being linked from 2 authority sites on a word that hardly appears on my site but which is the one they rank for.

    Interesting. Are those authority sites related to your theme? And how competitive are the term(s) that you are ranking for?
