Co-op's can get you banned. From Matt Cutts
A direct quote from Matt Cutt's blog. Take it for what it is.
Matt Said,
December 30, 2005 @ 12:42 pm
Michael, I have no desire to rank for plumbing queries. Hagrin, I don’t mind being a webmaster punching bag at times. The thing I wanted to remind people of is that there are often two sides to a story.
Shoemoney, the site that you mentioned in your other comment looked like it had been involved in a lot of co-operative link networks and such? If you’re not involved in that stuff any more, I’d file a reinclusion request for the site. It was also a little strange that you had sites for each wireless provider.
graywolf, I’m sticking with 1.0.7 until everything is available on 1.5. Call me selfish, but I can’t afford to have an unstable browser for my job.

Test DC May spread this weekend
I want to stress that this is my GUT Feelings alot like Gibb's would have on the CBS show NAVY NCIS. But from watching the test Data Center evolve over the past 30 days it appears that the tweaks are almost done.. My gut tells me that it will spread this weekend. Let's see if my gut is wrong. More talk will be forthcoming at Vermont Webmasters

Google's BIG UPDATE
Okay here goes. I know I have had a discussion with Caryl in the past about a theory of a Christmas update mixing up the serp's to push adwords as well as push Christmas related sites to the top whiole the rest of us drop off. Now if this theory is true then I just realised where I might have made a horrible mistake prior to Christmas this year... Our main site is a wheel and tire site.. This year for Jagger we dropped off the map for the most part.. Now last year I remember the serp's being all messed up however My site (if memory serves me correctly did fine) However last year on many pages I put " wheels & tires make great Christmas gifts" as well as a couple of other ctchy frases for Christmas... This year I did not do that and boom look what happened.. I only started thinking about this after reading these 2 posts on Webmaster World.
Post 1 "caution: wild theory follows
I follow these update topics just like everyone else when my site drops in the rankings for no apparent reason. My site, for the last 3 years, has dropped dramatically in the rankings just prior the "Christmas" buying season(middle/beginning of Nov.) only to return to its previous identical/near identical ranking very soon after Christmas. No changes to the site at all. This year is no exception. The "jagger" update dropped my consistent top 10 ranking to anywhere from 180-500. Guess what happened yesterday? I have jumped back to the top 10 to my original pre-"jagger" position.
I am not convinced that there was actually a "jagger" update. My theory is that the pre-christmas "update" (every year for past 3 years) is really a completely seperate index not just an algo change to help push retail sales type sites to the front for searchers looking to shop for Christmas or something along those lines."
Post 2 "You may not be so crazy. For the past two years, my Christmas site has shot up in the rankings right before the season, and then lost them again right after Christmas. This morning, all my fabulous rankings are gone (just like last year). Luckily, for me, my rankings were good during the time period I needed them to be.
I have been under the assumption that traffic had a lot to do with it. If G sees people going to the site, it ups the rankings. If G sees a dropoff, it drops the rankings. However, your theory could hold some water as well.
There's definitely a pattern developing with my site...just not sure what the pattern means yet."
I was ridiculled real bad for bringing up this theory on another forum.. So bad I believed I was probably wrong.. Well Now I am believing that maybe I was right to begin with.. What if Jagger was just a cloud of smoke brought on to cover up something else? I do see that the results on the test DC are very simialer to pre jagger...
Thoughts please and thanks for listening.
Todd

Putting the AOL deal with Google into perespective.
From the Google blog
About the AOL announcement
12/22/2005 06:25:00 PM
Posted by Marissa Mayer, VP of Search Products & User Experience
The recent announcement of the AOL partnership has been the source of a lot of rumors and misconceptions. We'd like to clear some of those up.
- Biased results? No way. Providing great search is the core of what we do. Business partnerships will never compromise the integrity or objectivity of our search results. If a partner's page ranks high, it's because they have a good answer to your search, not because of their business relationship with us.
- Indexing more of AOL's content. Our goal is to organize all of the world's information. When we say "all the world's information," this includes AOL's. We're going to work with the webmasters at AOL -- just as we work with webmasters all over the world -- to help them understand how the Google crawler works (with regard to robots.txt, how to use redirects, non-html content, etc.) so we don't inadvertently overlook their content.
- AOL will receive a credit towards advertising purchased through Google's ad program. You might wonder if this will affect the ad auction. It won't. We don't offer preferential treatment on advertising (in either the auction or the display) to any of our partners.
- We have a service called "onebox" for which we provide some additional links separate from ads (sponsored links) and search results. (Try searching on [new york transit strike] and look for the news section.) AOL and its products have always been a part of onebox, along with many other providers, and will continue to be.
- There will be no banner ads on the Google homepage or web search results pages. There will not be crazy, flashy, graphical doodads flying and popping up all over the Google site. Ever.
Our service and our business works because of you - our users. You're important to us and something that we think about all the time -- as we build new products, negotiate deals, and think about what our future holds.
We're looking forward to what AOL can help us do for you, and believe that our new agreement with them will only create a better experience for you in 2006 and beyond -- one where you can continue to trust that we're giving you a result because it's the best one we can possibly provide

Matt Cutts on post Jagger and the test DC going live
Matt Cutts posted tonight at 9:28 (Sounds like a cover up for the Christmas update. Caryl you said after the 2oth.. Wow are you good today is the 21st)
"Let’s see, where are we? Jagger wrapped up by about November 18th. I tried to impress on folks at Google that to the extent possible, you don’t want to make major shake-ups to the index during the holiday shopping season, so people should either launch their changes relatively early (e.g. like Jagger), or try to hold off until after the holiday season is winding down. Sometimes you don’t really have a choice because something is ready to go, but post-Jagger I think things were pretty quiet in the index this past month.
We’re getting closer to calling for feedback on 64.233.179.104, but I probably won’t ask for reactions for another week or two. Right now that datacenter isn’t serving traffic 100% of the time as people pull it out of the rotation from time to time to tune things up under the hood. That data center has some infrastructure that I think in time will work better for canonicalization and redirects. We also recently improved site: to show slightly more logical urls as well. "

Google deal with AOL goes public
A 5% stake in AOL: $1 billion. Google's new all-time high share value: $432.50. Rubbing Bill Gates' nose in it: Priceless.
America Online parent Time Warner (nyse: TWX - news - people ) and Eric Schmidt's Google (nasdaq: GOOG - news - people ) announced a broadening of their search and advertising partnership late Tuesday, which will leave the spurned Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ) suitors cursing their rotten luck as a chance to get a grip on the lucrative business of selling online ads goes begging.
As well as besting the Microsoft chairman, Schmidt's inking of a deal to join its colors with AOL means Google retains the Internet portal's pay-per-click dollars that make up 10% of its revenue and simultaneously forges a relationship with a huge content producer. It will continue to provide search technology for AOL.
Other tie-ups: Google also agreed to integrate AOL's video clips in its embryonic video service, and AOL also gets credits to promote its Web sites and content through the search engine's keyword ads, known as sponsored links. The Google Talk instant-messaging system will be dovetailed with AOL's instant-messaging program, as long as users sign up for a free AIM screen name. While wanting to keep the salt away from the already stinging wounds, Microsoft will rue this tie-up--it had long hoped to strike a deal with AOL to make its MSN Messenger compatible with AOL's market-leading messenger service.
Yet Microsoft's failed courtship demonstrates the software leviathan isn't the hot-headed sort. "I think they've learned that you don't do a deal at any price just to do a deal. You do a deal that makes sense for you," one analyst was quoted as saying by The Associated Press. "For Microsoft it was kind of a nice to have," opined another. "For Google it was a must have."

Matt Cutt's definition of a Google Update
Definition of a Google Update from Matt Cutts.
(Normally I, you know, think before I post. I’m experimenting with the quick-post-with-very-little-thought technique here.)
What is an update? Google updates its index data, including backlinks and PageRank, continually and continuously. We only export new backlinks, PageRank, or directory data every three months or so though. (We started doing that last year when too many SEOs were suffering from “B.O.”, short for backlink obsession.) When new backlinks/PageRank appear, we’ve already factored that into our rankings quite a while ago. So new backlinks/PageRank are fun to see, but it’s not an update; it’s just already-factored-in data being exported visibly for the first time in a while.
Google also crawls and updates its index every day, so different or more index data usually isn’t an update either. The term “everflux” is often used to describe the constant state of low-level changes as we crawl the web and rankings consequently change to a minor degree. That’s normal, and that’s not an update.
Usually, what registers with an update to the webmaster community is when we update an algorithm (or its data), change our scoring algorithms, or switch over to a new piece of infrastructure. Technically Update Gilligan is just backlink/PageRank data becoming visible once more, not a real update. There haven’t been any substantial algorithmic changes in our scoring in the last few days. I’m happy to try to give weather reports when we do our update scoring/algo data though.

Google's BIG Daddy data center comes into play.
Interesting post I just found about the Test DC that Now is coming into play. This post was made yesterday however the person had not read what Matt Cutt's wrote in his blog about the test DC moving into regular rotation.. Anyhow it is an interesting read...
"OK - Jagger is over - long live "Big Daddy" - as named by MC for the test DC.
The index growing on 64.233.179.104 does seem to be largely a Mozilla Googlebot generated index - and this new index is being built for the future - so can we say Mozilla Googlebot is now taking over from normal Googlebot.
OK ignore supplimentals etc for a moment - as all DCs have this problem and have a look at the cache dates for pages that are indexed...... some of these pages have only been fetched by Mozzilla Googlebot (even on the same day as normal Googlebot visited)
Eg. On the test DC I have a homepage cached 30th November at 5:40 - fetched by Mozilla Googlebot - while on the other DCs it is cached on 30th November at 3:40 - fetched by normal Googlebot.
So in many ways this does look like building a whole new index parrellel to the existing index - with largely Mozilla Googlebot crawl data.
Some pages appear very old - eg another page is cached on the test dc on 6th November - but on the other dcs it has cache in December - checking the logs - 6th November was the last time Mozilla Googlebot visited this page.
OK - there are pages in the test DC only visited by normal Googlebot - however, pages crawled by Mozilla Googlebot do not appear on other DCs.
The newest pages on the DC crawled by Mozilla Googlebot seem to be in November - eg no pages crawled by Mozilla Googlebot in December have made it to the index yet.
Some pages crawled by Mozilla Googlebot in November have not made it to the index - so I dont know if G are working with a sample data size......
For confirmation that this is a whole new build of the index MC said on his blog:-
"the test data center certainly has some different crawling and indexing characteristics."
OK - folks remember also that MC said that this index will roll out in months and is in a test state so I guess no need for early panic stations and slagging of Google in this thread.
Now 301s, 302s, Canonicals - for me a lot more 301s Google has crawled and indexed correctly. 302s - still lots in the index (mainly supplimentals) - not seeing any new 302s that show the url of the linking site but the content of the destination site (seeing the newest at about August 2005 time) - no doubt others may find some.
What are other observations people have seen with the new crawling and indexing on this test dc. "

Interesting post I found on a Forum
Just my 2 cents—possible interps of what is going on:
• G is making a legit attempt to fix issues but got lost in the update wilderness
Proof—terrible search results, unto ridiculous even (my well written little site fell from p1 to 16 overnight, and my listing on p16 is a secondary page—sometimes even my /links page—with the main page for the keyword indented beneath it, my link partners come up on the first several pages with my listing on their site highlighted—even for a search by my site name, one listing ahead of mine is for a knitting pattern service—which made me laugh and then want to cry, and much more silliness).
• G is playing games to make more money (increased adwords revenue, which one must increase to keep G traffic at its usual levels, to make any damned money)
Proof—all of my traffic from G is adwords given my new all-time low search results
• G is now a big corporate monster in spades and does not care if our businesses suffer, the biggest fish in the pond and so filled with big-fish hubris because the other SEs pale by comparison in their reach
Proof—everywhere you look on any G search (and this forum)
• G really has a plan and it will be made clear to us in the end, like God’s plan when one dies (and trying to contact G is pretty much just like saying a prayer: the words go off into the ether without hope that we will ever hear a reply: please show us a sign oh mighty G!)
Proof—none because the big fish doesn’t feel it needs to tell us anything at all; the inscrutable G-fish just listens in on these forums and laughs heartily as the krill scheme and hypothesize and vent (like I am doing now), so smile, for indeed we may be the butts of a cosmic joke--until G gets some real competition (but then the jealous G might kick in: ‘thou shalt have no other SEs before me,’ and what punishments might we expect then?)

More Test DC news
Well this is from MAtt Cutts blog.. This may have something to do with the Christmas theory who knows
"That data center (64.233.179.104) recently moved into regular rotation recently, and I wouldn’t be surprised if one more data center joined it in the next week or so. After that, I’d expect those two data centers to stay in the rotation (but not spread) until after the holidays. Not sure about that, but that’s my best guess."
