Googles recent changes

Some website owners have seen some fairly dramatic changes with their website traffic. Some had a good experience while others may have had a negative one. If you are wondering what is going on with Google, read on. Google changed their algorithm, which is a technical way of saying they changed their secret recipe. Google is in the business to attract users that will search the internet using their search engines. The more users that use them, the more businesses will pay to get listed on the top. However, if you do not want to pay every time someone clicks your ad on some obscure website, you get listed based on where Google wants you listed. You must improve your page ranking in the organic fashion. This is not all bad! Google is trying to make the users experience a happy and productive one. This means they want to put websites with fresh unique content at the top of the list. Well, there is more to it than that, but you'll be on the right track. Sites that belong to the free server farms, or get all their content by copying from other sites are finding their way to the bottom of the heap in a hurry. Whereas, sites that are written in updated code practice, have fast loading images, and good original and helpful content are being rewarded with web traffic and higher page rankings.    I build and optimize websites for a living so I am very glad to see Google finally implement the rules they have been pushing on us.  It was getting frustrating seeing sites that barely qualifying to be classified as a website  gaining search results on page one. Those days are ending. Now high quality websites will dominate the top rankings. Steve Thomas evolutions46.com
