Cross linking your own domains should trigger a filter also, because this means artificially inceasing link popularity.
In other words they should still be indexed but GG would eventually filter them for competitive KW's.
Also...don't trust GG backlinks...use MSN because it will give a better representation of what's the actually LP status of a site.
I'm still waiting for my cloaking specialists in europe to be penalized though!
Other than that I have submitted to other cheaters: one hidden text, the other domain hijacking and they have been penalized (PR back to 0) so well done Mr Google, they were cheating and penalty went fast!
Hopefully this will clean up SERP's, I would actually suggest to submit feebacks also to MSN and yahoo actually. We deserve clean SERP, no cheaters!
216.239.37.99
216.239.37.147
So we now have 66.102.11, 66.102.9 and 216.239.37 C blocks with the new serps.
Just wondering whether anybody's had the same experience as me as a result of Jagger.
My site has both static and dynamic content, both were doing great for their relevant areas before the update started.
Static content (100+) pages, fine, no problems, stayed where they are, maybe moved one or two places, but nothing that is going to lose me sleep.
Dynamic content has gone...nowhere to be seen. That's 300,000 + pages that have just disappeared, still being crawled, but not ranked..[scratches head] I'm just hoping that when everything settles down they come back..they better or I might be in trouble..
See my post above. Just spread onto two more dcs.
I can only hope that 66.102.7.104 spreads and not the others.
Kinda weird month: Started really low 1/3 traffic that rose to extreme heights and now dropping again, not as bad though in the moment, but when the trend stops who knows. This seriously sucks.
Maybe each Google employee turning around on that algorithm should have his/hers income linked to the success of their algorithm so they emotionally understand what they are doing.
66.102.11, 66.102.9, 216.239.37 are NEW results and are spreading.
Interestingly enough my Alexa stats [Pageviews, Rank and Reach] are skyrocketing .. I wished I could see this in my real stats? :\
Arggh.. ;)
For those that think Google should rely less on algo solutions and more on human judgement to weed out spam
Its called the ODP and they can't keep up with the demand for sites to be added let alone weed out spam. Humans may make a better judgement as to a sites 'worthiness' or 'usefulness but a computer can do it way faster, all day, everyday.

ODP is a volunteer-run non-profit directory. It has always been under-resourced.
Google is a very well financed, for profit, wannabe information monopoliser with enough money to pay lots of staff.
