Hi,
Writing my 300th post.
We have all seen few fluctuations in SERPS in past few days and we all know that this fluctuation in G-SERPS is due to Big Daddy.
Even Matt Cutts revealed that now google will list only those sites in SERPS which are having more relevant links and those having irrelevant links will be thrown out of SERPS.
http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/indexing-timeline/
Now, Googlebot will also check the content on the page on which there is our site's link. (I think...)
Now, we all have to change the our strategy a little bit.
According to Matt, No Buying and Selling of Links.
Two of my sites are feeling the heat of Big Daddy.
They are supposed to be on page 4 but they are on 13th.
I would like to share your views on this topic, about your next strategies, etc.
Thank You.

Hi

Noticed same patterns with few of my sites, and... some contadictions in the cache report of google of the same DC's seen thru different channels. Few foums has refferred that Google has broken and is mending itself.

With Jagger, it was under discussion that PageRank is replaced with TrustRank as as far as SERPs are concerned.

Hi,

Congrats on the 300th post!

I never really trusted Matt Cutts, but tried to give him the benefit of the doubt.

After that blog entry, I'm very disappointed. Lots of webmasters have seen their sites go supplemental and Matt Cutts tried to suggest it was because of "spammy" link exchanges, when many respected people in the field are wondering if the real reason is a problem at Google.

Don't get rid of your recips just yet.... haha

Cheers,
Paz.

I haven't seen any negative impact as the results of the Big Daddy, and some client sites are very active in purchasing links. I think as long as the bought links are relevant, and limited, it creates a value that can be measured in the algorithm...

of course, I could also be completely wrong too...

Good Point Paz...

I think once google gets done exactly what they have in the burner then tweak as per tested theories. I have noticed more spammy sites have been removed from index or just have dropped very low. Let's hope they do as they stated in webmasterworld pubcon boston 2006. Matt Cutts mentioned they send out emails to the whois contact info to notify people about the de-index of a site. Hopefully we don't see the major issues some legit companies had from Jagger.

Good Luck everyone!

I wouldn't change my links page just because of some talk.
Nothing is proven.. maybe it's Google, maybe it's not. One things for certain.. they'll never tell

Links have been around forever and aren't going anywhere anytime soon, IMHO..

Ditto comments above - my guess is given how complicated all this stuff is, even the folks at Google sometimes aren't sure how their coding algorithm changes will influence results.

Hi,
Not removed my recips. yet, but the thing confusing me is the statement " The sites that fit “no pages in Bigdaddy” criteria were sites where our algorithms had very low trust in the inlinks or the outlinks of that site. Examples that might cause that include excessive reciprocal links, linking to spammy neighborhoods on the web, or link buying/selling."
That means if I had few irrelevant links, than i can be deindexed?
I don't know about anyone but my sites are feeling heat at this moment.
One site moved to 13th page from 4th and ohter one on 12 from 6th page. One site is not in SERPS when I checked on different DCs by mcdar tool.
Like me many others are feeling heat.
Google only knows what will happen next.
