Why do I say this Google Dance was best (its not because my PR has increased or dropped) 1. It is filtering out sites that are doing aggressive "Link Popularity Campaign". It means even if get as many as ethical links to our site, it is not going to effect your PR and in return it will be blow the website by dropping its PageRank 2. It is eliminating sites that are over using advertisement on it site specially flyers, popups etc. 3. Google Search Ranking has not dropped but PageRank has dropped. It clearly indicates that PR has no relation to Google Search Ranking. Now it is merely a reputation management feature. 4. Home page & inner pages with static content is given more preference than dynamically generated content. You should not change your Meta's frequently.. I got few of these learning's from this Google Dance Greetings of the seasons.
I don't agree with this point though the other points are really nice to know... Google loves fresh content... Also,In mattcutts blog,he has said that google no longer uses the meta keywords for SERP ....
I also think this way. Maybe Google is updating because he is preparing for the application of Google Caffeine.
The good thing is like many other people, my SERP has increased. Sadly, even after an update, Google still displays the wrong meta data for my website. Sigh.
Actually google search ranking was never related to page rank.But your views on google dancing is right,but how can we guess with google algorithm ?
Leepee just wait until the end of the week. As far as I know Google Dance's effectiveness will be 3 days to 1 week.
Yeahh...im still trying to grasp the enormity of this update. I ve seen some of my sites drop and some rise ( as always happens at update ). Strange this is that I have sites that went from PR 3 to PR 5 and even PR 6 without doing any serious SEO work and I ve seen some sites fall from PR 7 to PR 6 and vice versa. I think this update was good for bloggers as most of my blogs have risen including most of the inner pages. I think this update underlines the importany of having high ranking back links pointing to your site, even if you can count them on one hand. This is probably the reason some of my sites shot up from PR0 to PR 5 and PR 6. I also think that the days of collecting hundreds of links from mass directories and article submission sites are long gone. All ups and downs taken into consideration....this was one of Google better updates but there again...Im only talking for myself.
What are you talking about?All my sites are doing wht you write but i have 500% increase of traffic last month. So you are obviously wrong.
Number 4 may be right on but uts hard to say. Ive noticed Google picks up on any meta changes pretty fast.
