HubPages, Examiner, Mahalo nailed by the Google algo changes

During this week, Google announced a significant algorithm-update which aims to increase quality in Google?s search results. Domains containing low-quality content are supposed to be found less often, high-quality pages are to achieve better rankings. At the moment this update is active in the US-Index, more countries are about to follow.

Quickly named an ?Anti-Demand-Media?-Update, I couldn?t find any real data proving this claim. I?d like to change this with this posting: Based on a dataset of one million keywords, which were checked before the update and yesterday I can determine the biggest loser of this algorithm-change. The SISTRIX VisibilityIndex is an index value calculated from traffic on keywords, ranking and click-through rate on specific positions. Let?s start with a list of the 25 biggest losers:
Lots of others affected too.
hubpages -87%
examiner -79%
mahalo -94%
