Google Panda Update 2.2 – What it is all About?

This is something directly from the horse mouth. Matt Cutts, the undisputed and de facto leader of seo industry, finally confirmed that Panda 2.2 has been approved but hasn’t rolled out yet. Panda 2.2, the sequel of Panda that has left some big boys hurting pretty badly, is likely to include a change that might ( mind the word) help some website see bright side of life (get their ranking back of course what’s else there in a SEOer’s life save ranking ). Sites that are rumoured to get their rankings back are really good site, but due to Panda update they got affected for some reasons mysterious.

Matt: We’re working on that. There’s a change coming related to scrapers outranking people for their own content that will be released soon.

Matt: It could help as we recompute data. Matt goes on to say that Panda 2.2 has been approved but hasn’t rolled out yet.”

After Panda 1.0 update lots of people complaining about being hurt by Panda. Google employees and other forum members, as expected, did not give this opportunity a miss and started filling up the Webmaster Central help centre with their suggestions about what they should do and what not to do (and a good many of them are heavily affected by the philosophy of life). However, the never-ending list of complaints have forced them see the sad side of Post Panda which every Google Employees vehemently opposed as if Google loves all and sundry and is a philanthropic organization ( do not think about Google Adwords). So, now here are they, making great fuss and busy controlling the damage.

But wait this not that easy at all, this update is not about the revoking the penalty from the sites that get effected, they are just going to re-compute the data to make the system more powerful to detect content scraper. This is not a reversal of a penalty; it is a redefinition of the scope of competence of the algo.

Matt: The general rule is to push stuff out and then find additional signals to help differentiate on the spectrum. We haven’t done any pushes that would directly pull things back. We have recomputed data that might have impacted some sites. There’s one change that might affect sites and pull things back.”

What you will expect from this update – Improved Scraper Detection
Most of the webmaster complaining about: sites that scrape and re-publish content and are out-ranking the original source of the content. In this update (Panda 2.2) Google will do some tweak in the Panda algorithm to solve this issue.

“A change has been approved that should help with that issue,” Matt said.

If your site got affected from Panda Update and still haven’t change your website as per recommendation given by Google, then immediately do that and get your site Panda 2.2 ready.

Google Announces new algo to restrict Content Farms

Search algo is becoming interesting game; whenever you’ve figured out the rules, they change them right away. At least, Google likes to change the algo to keep everything interesting. Anyway I really like to be a part of this interesting game.

This time they have introduced a massive algorithm change; this is really a big change they are going to implement on their search queries. Google says the change impacts 11.8% of its search results. So it’s going to be big challenge for SEO guy. For the time being the change only impacts results in the US. It may be rolled out worldwide in the future. It’s a change that should dramatically improve the quality of Google’s search results.

Google says that they have revised the algorithms to reduce rankings for low-quality sites that add little value for users, especially those who copy content from any other websites. The main problem here is that Google does not define the terms “quality site”, “content farm” or “low-quality”. In my opinion this change will be beneficial for those website who provide quality and research oriented content and its going to affect those sites who are blatantly copying content from other website or just rewrite them.

After this change content will be the strong SEO tool. Now this is the time to believe that “Content is King” until we haven’t found any other tools to match the changes that google have introduced. I am eagerly waiting for how following websites get affected for this algorithm change ehow, answers.com, mahalo and the all article directories like ezinearticles, single-page sites like hubpages or Squidoo.

View Movies Free Online From Youtube

There are many websites that currently offer the opportunity to watch movies free online. While these sites are “Illegal” offering up the chance to see films, even before they are released .

But now it has enabled YouTube a new section called “Movies” In which we can see totally free online movie (though this section is available for quite some time , YouTube just shown recently). The new section has categories for different genres, among which are : Action and Adventure , Comedy , Documentary , Horror , Mystery & Suspense , Drama , Animation, etc .

While we will not be able to enjoy movies, is a very good chance if we want to see free movies and high quality. Undoubtedly, there are films that have premiered in 2009 , and probably many others will love it.

New features on Orkut!

After trashed by Facebook last year, Google is now planning to do something different to recollect its lost reputation (Read – User). In this regard they have introduced some new features on Orkut. Few days ago it changed its design a bit too. But that was a minor change to the design, which made me visit Orkut again, but found nothing as much interesting as it should have been.

So let’s get onto the new features that Orkut has to offer for better user experience,

  • Group Scraps
    Group Scraps is similar to the groups we create on facebook for Facebook chat. But fb doesn’t allow us to send updates to each group selectively which we choose. This probably is the only stand out feature when you compare the new orkut & facebook. It’s pretty simple. Create a group which includes people whom you would like to send your updates to. Choose that group while sending a scrap & that it!
  • Send scraps to Selected people
    This would take care of privacy & ensure discussion among the people you have selected to make your scrap appear to them. You can select ‘n’ number of people among your friend lists to view your scrap. Suppose you’re a blogger & you want a discussion regarding blogging but pro blogging, then you can select some pro-bloggers & discuss your issues with them.
  • Better Privacy
    Privacy is the main issue when it comes to Social Networks. With this additional privacy feature you can select from the drop down to whom you want to display your update to. To Select individual users look for the above (second) option.
  • Post an Update from any profile page
    Previously Orkut had a scrapbox for every profile page to send an update to them. Keeping that feature intact, it has now added an option to send updates to all your selected users from any profile page. Now its like you can add recipients to your updates.
  • Tab System
    Now you can change the last tab in your profile page. Unfortunately you can’t add/remove but only change the last tab. This seems like a feature which either should be enabled completely (enabling add/remove tabs) or it shouldn’t have been added at all.
  • Application Box
    Now your homepage would be having an Exclusive box on the sidebar for the applications you use, just below the Friends & the communities’ box. This would make it easier for the user to access the application directly.


I don’t think that Orkut will regain its popularity with all these new features. It’s more look like Facebook. They just want to create another Facebook with different look and feel. Copy Cat Google :) What do you feel?
