Starting around Monday, November 23rd, there has been some signals that Google was pushing out another Google search algorithm ranking update. But the chatter is almost non-existent while some of the tools show big changes. Here is what I see, but again, this seems like a very narrow update at best.
Just to be clear, Google has not confirmed any update and for Google to release a Google search update prior to Thanksgiving – well, that just seems wrong on so many levels. So I do not know if this is a real big Google update or if specific sites are just having issues.
Let’s first start with the tracking tools, again, most of them show big swings.
Here is some of the limited chatter at WebmasterWorld:
Also received a few emails and tweets asking me about this:
I have to say that this is unusual because the tools are really showing big changes but the SEO community is pretty calm. Maybe folks are already off for Thanksgiving week and not obsessing over it? I am not sure. I did ask a few folks who track a lot of sites and they said it seemed pretty calm.
Have you noticed big changes?
