The "good" results seem to be spreading slowly. * I just had an idea...an online stress management course for Google datacenterwatchers. Anyone think there's a market for this?! Rod

petehall- Just an observation: For one important and very competitive keyword we monitor, we rank well on the "good" datacenters and not so well on the rest (page 6). On all datacenters, we rank well for allinanchor & allintitle for that keyword but here's the difference. On the good datacenters, we are on the top of the second page for allintext but we don't show up at all in the rest of the datacenters. I've checked to about 700 results.

Im only seeing the "Good Results on 5 Datacenters". On the positive side, We are also moving up in position for the "Bad" datacenters.

Don't want to dissapoint anyone but 64.233.187.99 seems like a heavy anchor-text and keyword stuffing type of place. Any joy might be short-lived on this datacentre. Someone is playing with the filters there...;)

Just an observation on datacentre updates in general: Pre BigDaddy Google used to 'relax' the filters during an update. The effect was lots of traffic for websites burried in the search results. So many people felt like Christmas during that period and returned to the usual dose of Prozac after the end of the update. Post BigDaddy the engineers can now play with the filters without going public with the results, or by using more obscure datacentres and although some of these do sneak back in to the main index for short periods of time they are not long enough there to cause a major upset. Hope that I am making sense here...

You got it about right on both posts Stakaman. Those good results referred to have been sitting there for quite a while. I also see them as to commerce intensive (order forms) for Google not to exact a price on them with filters. I always hope to be wrong.

Once again the great results are appearing on the following Google search partners.... search.comcast.net home.att.net/find_members.html www.business.com search.earthlink.net These are the results some of us seen a few weeks back and they are here yet again. Not a single datacenter reflects these results either! Will the madness ever end Google?!

Yup there they are again. <panic ensues at the Googleplex... "who forgot to put the garbage in the comcast feed again?!"> ==== The earthlink ones at least are switching back and forth between the good ones and a normal batch of crappier ones, so refresh your page a few times.

I think these "good results" have been occasionally popping into normal Google for the last few days. I've been seeing searches for a keyword on page two for a sandboxed site for the last few days, but the site only gets Google traffic in little short bursts - for like half an hour it will get several Google hits, then nothing. That's happened about 5 times over the last three days. When I went to check, it's nowhere on any of the datacenters. But sure enough, it's on Comcast this morning on page two.

I've never subscribed to the conspiracy theories about Google using irrelevant SERPs to force people into AdWords/AdSense, but to fan the flame, isn't it funny that the GOOD results are being displayed at 3rd party portals where AdWords ads aren't being displayed?

I haven't been able to spot these new results yet but are they similar to what Google showed 16th and 17th of May? I have one site that dropped down in the SERPs on March 30 but was back on top on those two days. I've been hoping for it to make a comeback that will last a little longer. Any hopes on this or are the current "good" test results different with more filters turned on etc?

These results are completely different than anything on Google. Just go to comcast.net if you want to see them.

So, these 'good' results on the 8 datacentres, do we think these will actually go live throughout google at some point, or are they just something to get us excited?

jaymer "So, these 'good' results on the 8 datacentres, do we think these will actually go live throughout google at some point, or are they just something to get us excited?" I guess Google's engineers keep on repairing and tweaking the poor BigDaddy. And I wouldn't be surprised, if they hurry (after each repair and tweaking) to this thread to read our reactions. Sooooo. In future if you like what you see on specific DCs, you may wish to post; I don't like what I see. That way, Google engineers might keep the results you like :-)

I wonder if Google are just holding back on updating DCs etc while they are still figuring out the hyphen domain site problem thing.
