The SEO overlords at Google were pretty quiet during the month of June but maybe that’s because they were so very busy rolling out Panda 4.0 back in May. In fact, many of the stories that made SEO headlines in June were a direct result of the blowback caused by the Panda rollout. Google, it…
Google's recent Panda 4.0 update was the latest in a string of algorithm updates that should be sending a clear signal to web publishers of all kinds - Google is very serious about quality content; site relevance, and user interaction. Anyone who doubts the previous statement should take a long, hard look at the sites…
Google kept the SEO world on its toes last month with a pair of major updates that impacted some of the web’s biggest sites. But Google wasn’t the only one dishing out headaches in the month of May. Thanks to a major ruling from the European Union, Google may be making major changes to their…
After an extended period of relative silence on the algorithm update front, Google rolled out two major updates this week; Panda 4.0 and Payday Loan 2.0.

This is exactly what happened to BetOnline a couple of weeks ago. The site wasn't…
Was March, 2014 the month that Google finally lived up to its promise to no longer announce algorithm updates? It sure looks that way. Though there were plenty of relevant news bits in the SEO world, and most of them coming in the form of Matt Cutts video announcements, there did not seem to be…
