Anyone else get a serious bitch slap from google today?

[jollyperv]

Traffic down about 70%...I'm talking multiple 6+ year old quality blogs sunken into oblivion.

GAY

[AzteK]

No I can't say I have. If you have some good content, hit it with quality links.

[nickutis]

some of my sites got hit pretty hard. I know at least two other webmaster who got hit too

damn google

[Klen]

I was not seriously bitch slapped,but some bitch slapping is definitely in progress.Also,if you have original content,check does someone making a copy of your content,that can cause instant penalization.

[B.Barnato]

Sorry to hear but interesting none the less.

Had a small network of mainstream sites double in traffic yesterday, today still up a good 25k impressions compared to normal.

[jollyperv]

got a bad feeling about this particular dance

[GAMEFINEST]

looks ok here...

[looky_lou]

Went from #5 to #40 on main keyword on biggest blog.

[PornHustler]

Yea felt the hit also. been talking to some others who have been hit also. All original hand written stuff so no dupe issues.

[anexsia]

about 11 of my main blogs gained a shitload of traffic...every time google has been updating I have been getting more and more traffic I'm totally loving it. A few of my blogs will lose a lot of traffic for a day or so but then BAM, the traffic goes up double or triple. I made sales today on blogs I haven't had much traffic at in awhile.

[beks001]

I got a big slap as well. No good. 50% down just today. Not sure how to approach it either . Let it fix itself or get things jump started
Forgot to say all hand written too. Weird.

[Jakez]

Quite the opposite. They've decided to more than double the traffic they usually give me for the last week.

[PornStarToys]

Down 85%. Yay. From a couple weeks ago though, was hoping it would bounce back but didnt.

[Mr Pheer]

I went from #3 to #4

[Sin_Vraal]

not seeing any change so far... traffic seems to be steady for me as usual.

if you guys have mainstream sites and you need links from pr 6-7 pages with HIGH AUTHORITY domain ( as opposed to a high pr low quality bullshit vapor ware page), let me know. Multiple niches
I'm selling for 40-150/mo per link.

[Mr Pheer]

The guy that was #1 is now #5, and fucking xvideos.com took the #1 spot and they werent even on the first page before.

[korke]

yeah got hit yesterday. lost lots of traffic. I have blog network and all with handwritten content and regularly updated. Maybe this is just some kind of weird dance... I hope that it will fix because it is so f...ing disaster...

[jollyperv]

Well fuck, at least I know it isn't just me

[Horny Joe]

Seems I got a little bit more SE traffic on a couple of sites I checked. I did a keyword search and notice that I am om page #2 with a new .me domain now. Was WAAAAAY back there last time I checked.

It was a Panda update....Matt Cutts from Google confirmed it on his Twitter....http://twitter.com/#!/mattcutts/stat...05069748559872

Cutts also issued a weather report earlier around October 5 there will be flux in the serps over the next few weeks.
Websites will go up and down over this period....losses may turn into gains into losses into gains.

Its part of the Panda whitewash to eliminate small webmasters from the internet. The only real winners here are google properties or members of the OPA.

For those talking about building backlinks...it is irrelevant...Panda does not count backlinks...its a artificial neural learning algorithm. Its also run manually from time to time and only runs against a small percentage of the web at a time. If you were not affected it may only mean you missed the scan.

Right now google do not give a stuff about adult...Panda is about mainstream....any adult caught in the middle are only a byproduct.
The Adult version of Panda is due next year...thats when you can kiss away your business.

[PromoterX]

Strange, my traffic went up about 70%.... hmm.

[halfpint]

Nope I havent seen any increase or drop

[geirlur]

Business as usual here

[cybermike]

My tgps got hit pretty hard.. I see no improvement in my blogs to make me feel any better

[Ronzo]

Yea felt the hit also. been talking to some others who have been hit also. All original hand written stuff so no dupe issues.

Ditto on this.

I honestly do not think Google gives a stuff about anything except sites that directly promote Google, its products, and/or make it money.

Google is - very slowly - eliminating everything that isn't a Google product, partner, or promoter.

Having said that, Google actually sent me some really good traffic the last two days. I made more sales Friday / Saturday than I made during the rest of the week combined.

This roller-coaster is starting to get nauseating, though - I never have a clue what will happen next.

[porno jew]

you are a retard.

I had 1 of my top 10 blogs go from number 1 with 2k hits day to obscurity and under 100 hits, and another one is still ranking number 1 for it's main keyword, but literally overnight went from over 5k hits a day to under 300 Obviously I was ranked for something else I no longer am.

[TheSenator]

Here is my check list as it pertains to structure and Google suggestions on how a site should be built.

HTML5
PageSpeed 92
Proper Taxonomy Structure
Proper SEO implementations
Original Content
Bounce Rate
Time on Site

[shimmy2]

fri/sat sales good. but then again its always good those days. traffic overall took a huge hit about 2 weeks ago. sales stayed the same though

What is happening is your losing all your long tail keywords...its happening all over the web to everyone. Those long tail keywords are going elsewhere, usually google owned properties or the big boys. Google does not want small webmasters on the net anymore and they are slowly exterminating you.

100% correct.

Im the source. You can work it out from long term study of their algorithm pattern. Their already testing in little patches here n there over time. For example, ive seen test patterns where for terms such as gay or lesbian, all adult disappears and only educational websites on those topics appear with the 1 to 100 serp range. This is the start and it will move from there. Your website will still be listed, but somewhere so far back in the serps it will never be found. When the Panda first rolled out in Febuary a lot of people were singing googles praises....or should I say those that did not get hit in the first panda were big noting themselves...ive since seen plenty of those same people get their websites wiped out in further panda updates. There has been a lot of heavy discussion on this over at webmasterworld....notice the pattern of that discussion since the first Panda in Febuary? In those days anyone who had their website wiped by google was blamed and bad mouthed as though it was their fault. The google ass lickers were out in force. But as more updates arrived and more people got slaughtered people have finally woke up to what the fuck is going on. Most of those google ass lickers have since had their websites wiped and lost their homes. Very few survive...but their days are numbered.

Here is a example of how Google are slowly removing porn from their serps.

First, go to Bing and type in Lesbian....of the first 20 results I get 14 that are porn related.

Now go to Google and type in Lesbian....Of the first 20 results only 1 result which comes in at number 11 is slightly adult related....and take a very very close look at that...because its fucking Youtube...a Google owned business. This same trend is slowly happening all over the google serps. Within 2 years at current trend rates, the only adult related terms that will appear anywhere within the first 100 serps will be youtube. Now you think about that, google sending all those adult searches to youtube....thats billions in advertising revenue to google. The smart adult webmasters are already working a youtube presense, but eventually adult will need to pay to be on youtube. You dont have to be a rocket scientist to see what is happening here.

Thats why we have to link to eachother , that made the world wide web. Because you could click thru all the link to virtual every page in the world and even google Page Rank was created for that.
Only relying on google is very easy and as you pointed out useless in the future.

Hopefully then surfers searching for porn will soon start switching to Yahoo and other search engines. Google might attempt to block porn from search results but it won't stop the surfer attempting to sniff it out.

"Lesbian" is not a term that should be owned by porn, so I understand what they may be doing there

as for the youtube part. well yeah they've been doing that for a while. but if someone is planning a "youtube presence" for porn - and youtube is a google company - you''re pretty much jumping into the same boat... "sexy lesbian wmovie" .... when i clicked it i got:

This video has been removed as a violation of YouTube's policy against spam, scams, and commercially deceptive content.

and to the OP.... one of my more established sites has seen a boost the last few days. haven't checked the rest yet

Now go to Google and type in Lesbian Porn or Lesbian Sex....Of the first 20 results I get 20 that are porn related.

Those are some of the search terms anyone with half a brain would optimize their adult sites for.
