While a lot of Americans were voting or at election night parties, Google pushed another Panda update. According to Google, the worldwide update has so far affected 0.4% of queries, while if you are in the US, 1.1% of results have been affected. Search Engine Land says this is the 21st confirmed update which was in line with their 4-6 week update schedule, they’ve also published a timeline of all the updates.
As for South Africa the results have been varied, we have personally noticed a decline and many site rankings mostly due to having insufficient content or poor linking strategies another factor which seems to be playing a role is domain age and website loading speeds.
