How did your sites do with update - allegra?

How has it changed?

Here's what Aaron Wall of SEOBook.com had to say about it in the latest issue of his newsletter -

Google did an update in early February which caused many sites to
no longer rank for their official site names.

Some have stated that they thought Latent Semantic Indexing was
used on links while others still believe it is technically
impossible. Whether or not they did that I still think it is
important to understand the general concept of LSI and what
it does.

A few common problems amongst sites which fell were: inadequatley
mixed anchor text, low deep link ratios (few other sites linking
into their deeper pages relative to the # of links pointing at
the home page), and many sitewide inbound links.

This was also seen more often on sites where their official
names were well aligned with their keywords, as that also
consolidates anchor text variations.

And here are some additional link that you may want to checkout -

Thanks for the information. 🙂

I don't know about my websites but my alergies aren't bothering me any more. 🙂

Hasn't affected my site at all. I still get no visitors. So perhaps I should say my traffic has doubled? Double nothing is ......

This has been a b***h of an update for a lot of sites...

I've been hit pretty hard by some of the new algo tweaks...

All greetings!

I am here at a forum newcomer. Until I read and deal with the forum.
