Google's Panda Update Graduates To Rolling Update
In last Panda Post, I mentioned the SMX west conference, in that conference Matt Cutts gave hit about Panda algorithm update but now Google Matt Cutt, the head of search spam has announced today that now this panda algorithm will soon be more incorporated into their overall continuous algorithm updates.
Still, no one know about this either this update is confirmed or not. I am waiting for confirmations from Google about Panda algorithm updates. This algorithm is going to be less clear to entire Webmasters and SEOs. The updates will be more real times. They will probably have minimum of an impact on the overall search results.
The update is pushing out over the weekend perhaps it isn’t being noticed by us.
I should note, we asked in the past if Panda was a rolling update and it wasn't. So it looks like now it is.
Here is the audio clip from the conference where Matt Cutts declared this.
When will this occur? As before as this weekend with the upcoming Panda refresh.
