Google Algorithm Change History 2012 : SEO Tips
on Wednesday, 31 December 2014
2012 Updates
30 - (Search quality Highlights - 2012
Google announced 30 changes over the previous month, including image search landing-page quality detection, more relevant site-links, more rich snippets, and related-query improvements. The line between an "algo update" and a "feature" got a bit more blurred. For more refer the original source below.30 search quality highlights - with codenames! (Google)
Google Announces “Megasitelinks,” Image Search Improvements & Better Byline Dates (SEL)
Panda 3.2 - January 2012
Google confirmed Panda 3.2 data update, although suggested that the algorithm hadn't changed. Only data refresh has been done a week ago.
Page layout algorithm - Ads Above The Fold - January 2012
Google updated their page layout algorithms to devalue sites with too much ad-space above the "fold". It was previously suspected that a similar factor was in play in Panda. The update had no official name, although it was referenced as "Top Heavy" by some SEOs.
Panda 3.3 - February 2012
Google rolled out another post-"flux" Panda update, which appeared to be relatively minor. This came just 3 days after the 1-year anniversary of Panda, an unprecedented lifespan for a named update.
Search Quality Video - March 12, 2012
This wasn't an algorithm update, but Google published a rare peek into a search quality meeting. For anyone interested in the algorithm, the video provides a lot of context to both Google's process and their priorities. It's also a chance to see Amit Singhal in action.
Panda 3.4 - March 23, 2012
Google announced another Panda update, this time via Twitter as the update was rolling out. Their public statements estimated that Panda 3.4 impacted about 1.6% of search results.
Parked Domain Bug — April , 2012
After a number of webmasters reported ranking shuffles, Google confirmed that a data error had caused some domains to be mistakenly treated as parked domains (and thereby devalued). This was not an intentional algorithm change.
Panda 3.5 - April , 2012
In the middle of a busy week for the algorthim, Google quietly rolled out a Panda data update. A mix of changes made the impact difficult to measure, but this appears to have been a fairly routine update with minimal impact.
Penguin Update - April , 2012
After weeks of speculation about an "Over-optimization penalty", Google finally rolled out the "Webspam Update", which was soon after dubbed "Penguin." Penguin adjusted a number of spam factors, including keyword stuffing, and impacted an estimated 3.1% of English queries.
Panda 3.6 - April , 2012
Barely a week after Panda 3.5, Google rolled out yet another Panda data update. The implications of this update were unclear, and it seemed that the impact was relatively small.
Google : list of Quality Update till April - May, 2012
Google published details of 52 updates in April, including changes that were tied to the "Penguin" update. Other highlights included a 15% larger "base" index, improved pagination handling, and a number of updates to sitelinks.
Knowledge Graph - May 16, 2012
In a major step toward semantic search, Google started rolling out "Knowledge Graph", a SERP-integrated display providing supplemental object about certain people, places, and things. Expect to see "knowledge panels" appear on more and more SERPs over time. Also, Danny Sullivan's favorite Trek is ST:Voyager?!
Penguin 1.1 (#2) - May , 2012
Google rolled out its first targeted data update after the "Penguin" algorithm update. This confirmed that Penguin data was being processed outside of the main search index, much like Panda data.
Panda 3.7 (#15) — June , 2012
Google rolled out yet another Panda data update, claiming that less than 1% of queries were affect. Ranking fluctuation data suggested that the impact was substantially higher than previous Panda updates (3.5, 3.6).
Panda 3.8 (#16) — June , 2012
Google rolled out another Panda data refresh, but this appeared to be data only (no algorithm changes) and had a much smaller impact than Panda 3.7.
Link Warnings — July , 2012
In a repeat of March/April, Google sent out a large number of unnatural link warnings via Google Webmaster Tools. In a complete turn-around, they then announced that these new warnings may not actually represent a serious problem.
Panda 3.9 (#17) — July, 2012
A month after Panda 3.8, Google rolled out a new Panda update. Rankings fluctuated for 5-6 days, although no single day was high enough to stand out. Google claimed ~1% of queries were impacted.
DMCA Penalty ("Pirate") — August, 2012
Google announced that they would start penalizing sites with repeat copyright violations, probably via DMCA takedown requests. Timing was stated as "starting next week" (8/13?).An update to our search algorithms (Google)

Exact-Match Domain (EMD) Update — September, 2012
Google announced a change in the way it was handling exact-match domains (EMDs). This led to large-scale devaluation, reducing the presence of EMDs in the MozCast data set by over 10%. Official word is that this change impacted 0.6% of queries (by volume).Google's EMD Algo Update - Early Data (SEOmoz)

Google Algorithm Updates - 2013
on Monday, 31 March 2014
Authorship Shake-up - December , 2013
As predicted by Matt Cutts at Pubcon Las Vegas, authorship mark-up disappeared from roughly 15% of queries over a period of about a month. The fall bottomed out around December 19th, but the numbers remain volatile and have not recovered to earlier highs.
Google's December Authorship Shake-up (Moz)
Penguin 2.1 (#5) - October, 2013
After a 4-1/2 month gap, Google launched another Penguin update. Given the 2.1 designation, this was probably a data update (primarily) and not a major change to the Penguin algorithm. The overall impact seemed to be moderate, although some webmasters reported being hit hard.

Google Penguin 2.1 Was A Big Hit (SER)
Hummingbird - August , 2013
Announced on September 26th, Google suggested that the "Hummingbird" update rolled out about a month earlier. Our best guess ties it to a MozCast spike on August 20th and many reports of flux from August 20-22. Hummingbird has been compared to Caffeine, and seems to be a core algorithm update that may power changes to semantic search and the Knowledge Graph for months to come.

In-depth Articles - August , 2013
Google added a new type of news result called "in-depth articles", dedicated to more evergreen, long-form content. At launch, it included links to three articles, and appeared across about 3% of the searches that MozCast tracks.

Multi-Week Update - June , 2013
Google's Matt Cutts tweeted a reply suggesting a "multi-week" algorithm update between roughly June 12th and "the week after July 4th". The nature of the update was unclear, but there was massive rankings volatility during that time period, peaking on June 27th (according to MozCast data). It appears that Google may have been testing some changes that were later rolled back.

Google Webmaster Guidelines
on Thursday, 27 March 2014
Best practices to help Google find, crawl, and index your site
Following these guidelines will help Google find, index, and rank your site. Even if you choose not to implement any of these suggestions, we strongly encourage you to pay very close attention to the "Quality Guidelines," which outline some of the illicit practices that may lead to a site being removed entirely from the Google index or otherwise impacted by an algorithmic or manual spam action. If a site has been affected by a spam action, it may no longer show up in results on Google.com or on any of Google's partner sites.
• Design and content guidelines
• Technical guidelines
• Quality guidelines
When your site is ready:
• Submit it to Google at http://www.google.com/submityourcontent/.
• Submit a Sitemap using Google Webmaster Tools. Google uses your Sitemap to learn about the structure of your site and to increase our coverage of your WebPages.
• Submit a Sitemap using Google Webmaster Tools. Google uses your Sitemap to learn about the structure of your site and to increase our coverage of your WebPages.
• Make sure all the sites that should know about your pages are aware your site is online.
Design and content guidelines
• Make a site with a clear hierarchy and text links. Every page should be reachable from at least one static text link.
• Offer a site map to your users with links that point to the important parts of your site. If the site map has an extremely large number of links, you may want to break the site map into multiple pages.
• Keep the links on a given page to a reasonable number.
• Create a useful, information-rich site, and write pages that clearly and accurately describe your content.
• Try to use text instead of images to display important names, content, or links. The Google crawler doesn't recognize text contained in images. If you must use images for textual content, consider using the "ALT" attribute to include a few words of descriptive text.
• Make sure that your <title> elements and ALT attributes are descriptive and accurate.
• Check for broken links and correct HTML.
• If you decide to use dynamic pages (i.e., the URL contains a "?" character), be aware that not every search engine spider crawls dynamic pages as well as static pages. It helps to keep the parameters short and the number of them few.
• Review our recommended best practices for images, video and rich snippets.
Technical guidelines
• Use a text browser such as Lynx to examine your site, because most search engine spiders see your site much as Lynx would. If fancy features such as JavaScript, cookies, session IDs, frames, DHTML, or Flash keep you from seeing your entire site in a text browser, then search engine spiders may have trouble crawling your site.
• Allow search bots to crawl your sites without session IDs or arguments that track their path through the site. These techniques are useful for tracking individual user behavior, but the access pattern of bots is entirely different. Using these techniques may result in incomplete indexing of your site, as bots may not be able to eliminate URLs that look different but actually point to the same page.
• Make sure your web server supports the If-Modified-Since HTTP header. This feature allows your web server to tell Google whether your content has changed since we last crawled your site. Supporting this feature saves you bandwidth and overhead.
• Make use of the robots.txt file on your web server. This file tells crawlers which directories can or cannot be crawled. Make sure it's current for your site so that you don't accidentally block the Googlebot crawler. Visithttp://code.google.com/web/controlcrawlindex/docs/faq.html to learn how to instruct robots when they visit your site. You can test your robots.txt file to make sure you're using it correctly with the robots.txt analysis tool available in Google Webmaster Tools.
• Make reasonable efforts to ensure that advertisements do not affect search engine rankings. For example, Google's AdSense ads and DoubleClick links are blocked from being crawled by a robots.txt file.
• If your company buys a content management system, make sure that the system creates pages and links that search engines can crawl.
• Use robots.txt to prevent crawling of search results pages or other auto-generated pages that don't add much value for users coming from search engines.
• Test your site to make sure that it appears correctly in different browsers.
• Monitor your site's performance and optimize load times. Google's goal is to provide users with the most relevant results and a great user experience. Fast sites increase user satisfaction and improve the overall quality of the web (especially for those users with slow Internet connections), and we hope that as webmasters improve their sites, the overall speed of the web will improve.
Google strongly recommends that all webmasters regularly monitor site performance using Page Speed, YSlow,WebPagetest, or other tools. For more information, tools, and resources, see Let's Make The Web Faster. In addition, the Site Performance tool in Webmaster Tools shows the speed of your website as experienced by users around the world.
Google Hummingbird Update Does not Mean Your SEO Ruined
on Wednesday, 9 October 2013
Hi,
Hummingbird "Google`s 12 years old Algorithm has been totally upgraded" for providing more better results in terms of search query .Many people have been frustrated by Panda and Penguin, and they’ll now see Hummingbird in a negative light. Don’t fall into that trap. If you’re the best at what you do, these updates Google has been rolling out are opportunities to separate yourself from your competition. They may have been engaging in spammy tactics to get good rankings, but if you’ve been focusing on creating content that provides real value to potential customers, their days are numbered. These changes will help you rise above, and the good news, as mentioned above, is if you’ve been doing the right things for your SEO you don’t need to change a thing.....
"For Your Information Google has update this few months ago .so there is no need to think about that it will really impact.they had released into press after implementing the same "
Thanks

Seo is not Dead - Start Link Earning Stop Link Building
on Thursday, 8 August 2013
Google: Guest Blogging Stop Link Building , Start Link Earning
Hi,
Please Have a look .
Gave a highly entertaining and informative presentation about link building through guest blogging.
Guest Blogging Works, But You Have to do it Right
It’s a scenario that’s far too typical in the SEO world. An awesome new tactic is discovered, word gets out, and it gets done to death, resulting in it not working anymore (sorry, but it’s true).
Link building through guest blogging has definitely suffered this fate. Starting out as an incredibly effective means of generating high quality white hat links, over-use and poor implementation have resulted in bloggers cringing at inboxes full of poorly written, self-serving pitch requests, and ultimately ignoring the vast majority of would be guest posts.
However, guest blogging still works, and it works well, but it has to be done right. The key is to stop thinking about it as link building, and start thinking relationship building. Build real relationships with the real people running the sites, and the links will come.
Follow these six tips to make your guest posting more effective than you ever thought possible:
#1 Upgrade Your Research
The old way to find potential link sources was a simple Google search for the kind of blog you want a link from. While this technically still works, this is exactly what your competition is doing, and you want to stand out from the crowd.
A much better way to research sources is through social media channels, especially Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. Try searching using relevant keywords with modifiers like:
Blog
Blogger
Editor
Critic
Etc.
#2 Don’t be Too Direct
The underlying themes to most unsuccessful guest blog pitch attempts are desperation and laziness.
Something along the lines of:
Hi Blogger,
Here is some content. Give me a link.
From,
XXXX
Maybe that’s an oversimplification, but far too many guest outreach emails follow this format, and it almost never works. Remember that you are reaching out to a real person, and it’s a huge turnoff when you immediately demand something.
The first time you contact a blogger, don’t pitch to them; get to know them. Most bloggers are happy to help out people they like, but the only way to get there is to focus on the relationship before the link.
#3 Approach Through Social Media
Better yet, skip email altogether for the first contact. Instead, reach out through social channels, where you are much more likely to get a response.
Twitter is one of the best social networks for finding and connecting with bloggers, and should be your first step in reaching out. Start by following, then tweet directly to them, but don’t ask for a link on the first tweet.
#4 Personalize the pitch
Nothing will get your guest post denied quicker than sending a generic pitch. Taking the time to personalize each pitch to the person you are sending it to will greatly increase your success rate, and is well worth the five extra minutes.
What if you don’t know enough about the blogger to make it personal? Then it’s too soon to be pitching!
#5 Offer Value
The best way to get what you want is to give something back. The primary value you should be offering is excellent content, but don’t stop there.
Some other great ways you can bring value:
Promote and share their content on your social networks.
Bring technical issues to their attention, such as dead links or broken forms.
Leave comments and participate in discussions.
#6 Maintain the Relationship
Oftentimes when guest bloggers manage to get a placement, they pat themselves on the back, take the link, and are never heard from again.
You’ve put the effort into getting that link, but that’s just the beginning of the potential benefits you can gain from maintaining good relations. If your content plays well, the blogger will be eager to publish more of your submissions in the future. This is particularly good advice for agencies, who can leverage these relationships with multiple clients.
The key to effective guest blogging is to stop thinking in terms of links, and start thinking in terms of relationships. Stop treating guest blogging as a numbers game, and the links will roll in.

Guest Blogging Works, But You Have to do it Right
It’s a scenario that’s far too typical in the SEO world. An awesome new tactic is discovered, word gets out, and it gets done to death, resulting in it not working anymore (sorry, but it’s true).
Link building through guest blogging has definitely suffered this fate. Starting out as an incredibly effective means of generating high quality white hat links, over-use and poor implementation have resulted in bloggers cringing at inboxes full of poorly written, self-serving pitch requests, and ultimately ignoring the vast majority of would be guest posts.
However, guest blogging still works, and it works well, but it has to be done right. The key is to stop thinking about it as link building, and start thinking relationship building. Build real relationships with the real people running the sites, and the links will come.
Follow these six tips to make your guest posting more effective than you ever thought possible:
#1 Upgrade Your Research
The old way to find potential link sources was a simple Google search for the kind of blog you want a link from. While this technically still works, this is exactly what your competition is doing, and you want to stand out from the crowd.
A much better way to research sources is through social media channels, especially Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. Try searching using relevant keywords with modifiers like:
Blog
Blogger
Editor
Critic
Etc.
#2 Don’t be Too Direct
The underlying themes to most unsuccessful guest blog pitch attempts are desperation and laziness.
Something along the lines of:
Hi Blogger,
Here is some content. Give me a link.
From,
XXXX
Maybe that’s an oversimplification, but far too many guest outreach emails follow this format, and it almost never works. Remember that you are reaching out to a real person, and it’s a huge turnoff when you immediately demand something.
The first time you contact a blogger, don’t pitch to them; get to know them. Most bloggers are happy to help out people they like, but the only way to get there is to focus on the relationship before the link.
#3 Approach Through Social Media
Better yet, skip email altogether for the first contact. Instead, reach out through social channels, where you are much more likely to get a response.
Twitter is one of the best social networks for finding and connecting with bloggers, and should be your first step in reaching out. Start by following, then tweet directly to them, but don’t ask for a link on the first tweet.
#4 Personalize the pitch
Nothing will get your guest post denied quicker than sending a generic pitch. Taking the time to personalize each pitch to the person you are sending it to will greatly increase your success rate, and is well worth the five extra minutes.

Types of Robots.txt
on Tuesday, 5 March 2013
Hi,
Good morning every one .
Today i am going to point out the few things regarding robots.txt file .A robots.txt file defines the privilege for Search engine crawler that which part of the website will be crawled and which part will not.
Example : Suppose in the root folder of your website there are many folders ,which you don't want to give access to anyone or robots (Crawler) like anon_ftp , cgi-bin , you can simply restrict these folder by adding a file in your root directory called robots.txt. Here is the format
User-agent: *Disallow: /anon_ftp/
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
The above example defines that for all the crawler these two folders are restricted , they cannot index the content of these folder.if you wish , you can specify the different crawler by different restrictions.
Like you want only Googlebot not index these above mentioned two folders. then the syntax of robots.txt file will be .
User-Agent: GooglebotDisallow: /anon_ftp/
Same applies for other crawler also .
Blocking user-agents
The Disallow line lists the pages you want to block. You can list a
specific URL or a pattern. The entry should begin with a forward slash
(/).
- To block the entire site, use a forward slash.
Disallow: /
- To block a directory and everything in it, follow the directory name with a forward slash.
Disallow: /junk-directory/
- To block a page, list the page.
Disallow: /private_file.html
- To remove a specific image from Google Images, add the following:User-agent: Googlebot-ImageDisallow: /images/dogs.jpg
- To remove all images on your site from Google Images:User-agent: Googlebot-ImageDisallow: /
- To block files of a specific file type (for example, .gif), use the following:User-agent: GooglebotDisallow: /*.gif$
- To prevent pages on your site from being crawled, while still displaying AdSense ads on those pages, disallow all bots other than Mediapartners-Google. This keeps the pages from appearing in search results, but allows the Mediapartners-Google robot to analyze the pages to determine the ads to show. The Mediapartners-Google robot doesn't share pages with the other Google user-agents. For example:User-agent: *Disallow: /ediapartners-Google Allow: /User-agent:M
Note that directives are case-sensitive. For instance,
Disallow: /junk_file.asp
would block http://www.example.com/junk_file.asp, but would allow
http://www.example.com/Junk_file.asp. Googlebot will ignore white-space
(in particular empty lines)and unknown directives in the robots.txt.Hope this is helpful, Suggestions please write me akhi8601@gmail.com

PubCon 2012 slides: disavow links tool
on Wednesday, 6 February 2013
Webmaster level: Advanced
Today we’re introducing a tool that enables you to disavow links to your site. If you’ve been notified of a manual spam action based on “unnatural links” pointing to your site, this tool can help you address the issue. If you haven’t gotten this notification, this tool generally isn’t something you need to worry about.
First, a quick refresher. Links are one of the most well-known signals we use to order search results. By looking at the links between pages, we can get a sense of which pages are reputable and important, and thus more likely to be relevant to our users. This is the basis of PageRank, which is one of more than 200 signals we rely on to determine rankings. Since PageRank is so well-known, it’s also a target for spammers, and we fight linkspam constantly with algorithms and by taking manual action.
If you’ve ever been caught up in linkspam, you may have seen a message in Webmaster Tools about “unnatural links” pointing to your site. We send you this message when we see evidence of paid links, link exchanges,
or other link schemes that violate our quality guidelines.
If you get this message, we recommend that you remove from the web as many spammy or low-quality links to your site as possible. This is the best approach because it addresses the problem at the root. By removing the bad links directly, you’re helping to prevent Google (and other search engines) from taking action again in the future. You’re also helping to protect your site’s image, since people will no longer find spammy links pointing to your site on the web and jump to conclusions about your website or business.
If you’ve done as much as you can to remove the problematic links, and there are still some links you just can’t seem to get down, that’s a good time to visit our new Disavow links page. When you arrive, you’ll first
select your site.

select your site.
You’ll then be prompted to upload a file containing the links you want to disavow.
The format is straightforward. All you need is a plain text file with one URL per line.
An excerpt of a valid file might look like the following:
An excerpt of a valid file might look like the following:
# Contacted owner of spamdomain1.com on 7/1/2012 to
# ask for link removal but got no response
domain:spamdomain1.com
# Owner of spamdomain2.com removed most links, but missed these
http://www.spamdomain2.com/contentA.html
http://www.spamdomain2.com/contentB.html
http://www.spamdomain2.com/contentC.html
In this example, lines that begin with a pound sign (#) are considered
comments and Google ignores them. The “domain:” keyword indicates that
you’d like to disavow links from all pages on a particular site (in this
case, “spamdomain1.com”). You can also request to disavow links on
specific pages (in this case, three individual pages on
spamdomain2.com). We currently support one disavowal file per site and
the file is shared among site owners in Webmaster Tools. If you want to
update the file, you’ll need to download the existing file, modify it,
and upload the new one. The file size limit is 2MB.
One great place to start looking for bad links is the “Links to Your Site” feature in Webmaster Tools. From the homepage, select the site you want, navigate to Traffic > Links to Your Site > Who links the most > More, then click one of the download buttons. This file lists pages that link to your site. If you click “Download latest links,” you’ll see dates as well. This can be a great place to start your investigation, but be sure you don’t upload the entire list of links to your site -- you don’t want to disavow all your links!
