New Google Penguin Update Rumors: Penguin 1.1


May 25, 2012 • 8:26 am
Tedster, the administrator at WebmasterWorld, started a thread at WebmasterWorld asking if others feel that Google pushed out or is pushing out an update to the Penguin algorithm.
He believes they are due to the increase in discussion in the various forum threads of people claiming recoveries and also new people claiming they were hit. That is the same metric we use to detect and report on possible Google updates - but this time, I am citing Tedster.
We thought we saw Penguin updates before, once around May 13th and then again around May 15th but Google said no, it wasn't Penguin, Panda or anything else.
Is this the real Penguin update? Is this version 1.1 of Penguin?
I do not know - did you recover?

    Thank you for giving me more information on SEO and the new Google Penguin update. I have seen my website drop to the fifth page when I search it on google. I will try to use this information to boost my rank.

Two Weeks In, Google Talks Penguin Update, Ways To Recover & Negative SEO

It’s been about two weeks since Google launched its  Penguin Update . Google’s happy the new spam-fighting algorithm is improving things as intended. But some hurt by it are still wondering how to recover, and there remain concerns about “negative SEO” as a threat. I caught up with Matt Cutts, the head of Google’s web spam team, on these and some related questions. Penguin: “A Success” The goal of any algorithm update is to improve search results. So how’s Penguin been for Google? “It’s been a success from our standpoint,” Cutts said. What About Those Weird Results? Of course, soon after Penguin was released, people quickly started citing  examples of odd results . The official Viagra site wasn’t listed, while hacked sites were. An empty web site was listed for “make money online,” and there were reports of other empty sites ranking well. Scraper sites were reported outranking the sites they scraped. How could Penguin be a success with these types of things happening? Cutts s...

Google Update Brewing? What Is Going On?

May 16, 2012 •  9:13 am As of yesterday, the  WebmasterWorld  thread and some other forums starting lighting up again with discussion and SEO chatter around Google's search results starting the shuffle and fluctuate. These are typically signs of an update happening in Google. Maybe a Panda or Penguin refresh? Maybe a new Google bug? Maybe a new penalty or an old one being run again? Maybe Google is testing an algorithm or update? Or maybe it is something completely different or people are on crack? I do not know but earlier this week, when I saw similar discussion around this, I asked Google if there was a  Penguin refresh  and they said no. It wasn't Penguin, Panda or anything else. So do I go back to Google and bother asking about yesterday's increase in SEO chatter? Did you notice ranking and traffic changes between Monday and today? Forum discussion at  WebmasterWorld .
