Breaking: Panda Update Result Of Pressure Of The Online Publishers Association - GoFuckYourself.com

Agent 488 · 04-20-2011, 06:31 PM

Google changes search algorithm to favor large publishers over small-time blogs and websites last Friday in a move that shifted $1 billion in annual revenue to members of the Online Publishers Association (OPA).

The Online Publishers Association, an insider organization representing large websites and magazines, applied pressure on Google to adjust its search algorithm in favor of ?quality? content as the industry continues to suffer declining subscription revenue.

?A private understanding was reached between the OPA and Google,? an office assistant with e-mail evidence told Politically Illustrated. ?The organization is responsible for coordinating legal and legislative matters that impact our members, and one of the issues was applying pressure to Google to get them to adjust their search algorithm to favor our members.?

Its time for people to stop supporting this evil google. Stick a search box for Bing or someone else on your website, stop spending your advertising dollar with with Adsense. just boycott all google products.

Traffic to sites that belong to the Online Publishers Association grew between 5% and 50% the day after Google's tweak, according to Pam Horan, president of the OPA....http://money.cnn.com/2011/03/08/tech...ange/index.htm

they are taking bribes in exchange for favoring certain groups of people, it devalues google as a whole and makes them basically useless and contrary to what they claim to be.

If you have a monopoly in an industry there are certain guidelines you have to adhere to be responsible and fair.

1. There are at least three other search engines. So it's hardly a monopoly.
2. You do not 'pay' for them to be fair. They provide you a free service.
3. As for the bribes, they are 'lobbied' like the members of congress.

There are other operating systems besides Windows, too.

Yep. Apple doesn't seem to be hurting for business.

Agent 488 · 04-21-2011, 10:30 AM

did a lot of search research yesterday, panda really consolidated the results in a few hands.

say take the first page results across ten keywords, pre-panda there would have been maybe 80 different sites, now they are distributed to maybe 30-40.

and panda really gave tons of traffic to authority sites, but they are not authority sites me or you could ever make in this lifetime ... their new measure for authority is a CORPORATE site, like cnn, or bbc, or amazon. it's like they now factor in the net worth of an organization into the algo. and that's not really a joke.

Babaganoosh · 04-21-2011, 10:39 AM

I keep seeing people complaining about the latest changes but I don't understand why. Do you run splogs or sites with crap content? My sites with original, hand-written content are kicking ass lately. I'm pretty happy with the changes.

Add to that 4: Microsoft and Yahoo have been doing this since 2002.
I love the page 1 listings of blogs that have "zero" backlinks.

Agreed, you are 100% correct. Now, fair enough some people are lucky to be getting a boost from the Panda and good luck to them, but their thinking is very short, they are only thinking about today, they do not seem to understand what happened with Panda, its got NOTHING to do with quality content, its exactly as you say, its about turning the web into a monopoly for big corporations, and if people dont wake up to what just happened they wont be in business in a few years from now.

Interesting article here shows how Panda is favouring scrappers over original content....

if people won't be happy with search results, they will go to alternatives

what alternatives?
bing and yahoo are just bing. Unless Microsoft smells blood and does something to knock google in the mouth

moeloubani · 04-22-2011, 12:58 AM

seems like google doesnt care about their results as much these days

the idea it seems is to make sure you take sites that already have a good reputation so you get the quality part of it done for you, rank them at the top, and let people buy ads for anything else

more ads get sold, big companies are happy, google is happy, and the only person that loses is the average joe who once again has to get his or her information from a limited number of places as opposed to what it was like before when you could get information from all over the place about different things

Agreed, Google has succeeded in destroying the web, they have did what was once thought impossible, they have limited the web to big business.
