Has anyone else noticed over the past 12 - 24 hours the serps have changed drastically? I have 10 sites I'm watching, 5 of them that are all on completely different ips, different niches, different everything and I hadn't touched them or added a single backlink to them since penguin because I thought they were dead. Suddenly today even though none of the 5 have anything to do with each other and they are completely different they jumped right back to exactly where they were at before penguin.
I've also noticed the other 5 that are in similar niches that I have been playing with post penguin have also significantly shot up in the ratings. The fact that it's happening to all of them at the same time leads me to believe they must of either updated Penguin or adjusted it's effectiveness somehow.
Just wanted to post to see if anyone else has noticed something similar in the past 12 - 24 hours?
Personally I feel that this is happening because google is freaking out about Microsoft announcing bings new 3 column layout which most of you probably don't know about anyways so I mise as well as tell you about this. Bing is going to include facebook and twitter in their search results in a new 3 column layout. Say for example you search for "Bestblackhatforum" on bing, in the 3rd column bing will show your facebook friends who have already signed up to bestblackhatforum and without signing into facebook you can discuss it with your friends right on bing. Microsoft has exclusive partnerships with both facebook and twitter and has exclusive access to their data, google cannot possibly compete with this.
You can somehow sign up for a beta for this it was either this week or next I'm not sure.
From my end from what I'm seeing with Piwik Analytics it's as if they completely turned penguin off, my numbers on all 10 of these sites I'm watching are 100% what they were pre penguin, but this could be temporary.
