No Penguin 2.0 Update - Matt Cutts Confirmation 2013-05-10

[totalodds]

I've just had confirmation from Google's distinguished engineer Matt Cutts via Twitter;

@mrjamiedodd nope, no new Penguin update this week.

@mrjamiedodd we do expect to roll out Penguin 2.0 (next generation of Penguin) sometime in the next few weeks though.

The anchor text is usually just the URL and I never see hundreds from one forum pointing to one URL. It's naturally spread out as you'd expect. So far I haven't seen any negative effect from this (pre?) Penguin shuffling. I don't want to jinx it though.

I am very happy to know about the Google Penguin 2.0 update, but its very bad thing that the results are coming on search engine are unexpected, I don't know what the changes going on but I am sure there is some issue.

Just so no one misses it, in the 12 days since this discussion started, Google has indeed rolled out the next version of their Penguin algorithm. So let's take any further discussion to the new thread: Penguin 2.0 is upon us - May 22, 2013 [webmasterworld.com]
