It seems like Webmasters and SEOs are getting restless again, this time with the Panda update or lack there of.

The last time webmasters had an official Google Panda update was on September 25, 2014, Google Panda 4.1…

There is no doubt in the vast majority of SEOs and Webmaster’s mind that there was indeed a search algorithm change last week with Google. Google wouldn’t confirm it but did tell us it was not related to Panda or Penguin…

Let me give you the timeline I am working on and yes, I know some of you are sick of this…

Honestly, I am shocked that we are seeing so many fluctuations, reversals and changes to Penguin hit sites. Today, there are more changes with sites impacted by the Google Penguin algorithm. Google has NOT confirmed any of this…

We’ve been seeing a lot of Penguin related chatter recently, specifically around Penguin 3.0 launching, with several slow pushes on that algorithm through the past several weeks. We saw a huge spike around that over Thanksgiving, which they confirmed a…
