Google Search Index March '08 Update!

GOOGLE Updated :Google Search Index March '08 Update

The two data centers that appears to be shuffling around include:

  • 72.14.207.104
  • 64.233.183.104

1) Old sites that have done nothing wrong suddenly dropped out of Google's index around the end of February, early March

2) Cache data has been inaccurate and appallingly unrefreshed even though the index reports that new content and links are working.

3) New sites take excruciatingly long time frames to be indexed whereas up until late February/early March it was a fairly quick and painless process

4) Your index numbers don't agree in Webmaster Central

5) Site: queries don't match up with inurl: queries

6) Many site: and inurl: queries which normally fluctuate for large content sites became "frozen" and continued to report the same numbers every day for at least the last two weeks

7) Less relevant results have floated to the top of many queries because more relevant pages have either dropped out of the index or (temporarily) lost their inbound links

Latest SEO GOOGLE News! Google Algorithm Update

Google Algorithm Update:“Dewey” Algorithm Update


Well, you probably already know about the new Google update. While the last several updates don’t have a distinctive name, this past update which came roaring in during March and April wreaking havoc to all SEO’s deserves a name like a great storm- this one named “Dewey” after a code word used in Matt Cutt’s blog. Following is some of the information I have been able to collect on Dewey, hopefully giving SEO’s information that can be useful for their clients and websites.

Dewey Wreaks Havoc

Older Sites in General Suddenly Disappear: One of the first alarm bells that went off was that many of the quality old sites that we love and nurture suddenly disappeared from the top ranking positions to pages in the tens or twenties of the index

Less Relevancy: Many web surfers and SEO’s noticed that searches were not nearly as relevant as before.

New Sites Were Loading Extremely Slow

Problems with Cache Data

Many SEO’s realized that cache data was not showing up accurately even though index reports were showing otherwise.

Microsoft's bid Failed: Yahoo! Rejects Offer

Microsoft's bid Failed:



Microsoft Corp.'s decision to drop its pursuit of Yahoo! Inc. increases the pressure on

Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer to make his money-losing Internet business succeed

against Google Inc.


Ballmer and Kevin Johnson, president of Microsoft's Internet unit, met two days ago in

Seattle with Yahoo co-founders Jerry Yang and David Filo, two people familiar with the

negotiations said. Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft, the largest software maker,

offered to raise its $44.6 billion bid by about $5 billion, to $33 a share. Yang and Filo

refused to accept less than $37 a share, the people said.


Google gained 10 percentage points of market share in Internet queries since June,

providing 59.8 percent of the searches done in March, according to researcher ComScore

Inc. in Reston, Virginia.


ABOUT MICROSOFTS BUYS:

Microsoft has spent $7.5 billion on its Internet unit over the past 2 1/2 years,

estimates Matt Rosoff, an analyst at Kirkland, Washington-based Directions on Microsoft.

The online services business lost $745 million last fiscal year as Google outsold

Microsoft in Internet ads by a 7-to-1 margin.

The company released its AdCenter Internet-advertising service two years ago to challenge

Google with a program that targets ads by age, gender and location. Microsoft also bought

Seattle-based AQuantive Inc. in August for $6 billion to gain tools that help advertisers

track the success of their marketing efforts.
