Anyone notices the effect of the panda update for the rest of the world?
-
Friday google applied the Panda Update for the rest of the world, I checked my rankings and nothing seemed to have changed , does anybody notice any of the effects already? Is it to soon to draw any conclusions after 2 days?

Saw a major increase in traffic from analytics on the 12th and it's stayed steady. The problem is, our numbers are not correlating with the data from analytics, so I'm guessing its a Google issue, otherwise it would be awesome if we saw that positive effect here in the US lol.

Have heard stroies about chinese based sites which aggregate content been struck with a loss in rankings.
Yet also on a side note I have been hearing stories about .com.au sites been hit recently even though the roll out was April for the com.au side of the business.
I will have to chat with a buddy at work who runs some multi lingual websites for clients and see if any effect has been had.

Effects of forwarding content to another site?
Our e-commerce store is moving away from a set of products. Instead of just redirecting these to an another section of our site, we were considering redirecting them to another site that sells the product. I don't mind losing that traffic, but I don't want it to inadvertently hurt our other product lines. Any thoughts on the impact of 301 redirecting a certain section of traffic to another domain? Anything I should we on the lookout for or consider?

Redirect to a new domain and seo effects
I created a one page blogger with listing of several affiliated websites.It gained some visibility on google but it was very plain so i decided to create a wordpress more complex and fancy and to reach the top of search positions. At the moment i decided to keep the listing on blogger and add some links on the page saying "i've moved to a new website. click for more info" and it redirects to my page. But i dont get many clicks to my new site so i was thinking to maybe create a full redirect from my blogger to my wordpress or a iframe to fetch the wordpress but im afraid it may hurt my seo on my blogger. what should i do? thanks in advance

Panda Recovery ETA?
I have a blog hit by Panda in 2011 and 2012. The thing is, I've no-indexed around 1000 posts out of 11xx. No-indexed tags and archives. But, Google was taking a very long time to remove them from their indexes. So, I had to do a manual removal from Google WMT. Removed /2011/ and /2013/ as directories, and removed /pages/ (this is an WordPress site) so all of them are now no longer in their index. It was a smartphone blog started in 2011 which I turned into an tech blog on a new domain (I let the old PR3 DA 30+ domain expire and now someone's asking me $200 if I am to get it). I had a team when it was a smartphone blog. Our articles had been featured on places like Engadget, PhoneArena, UberGizmo etc. So, with the loss of the domain, we've lost quite a few important backlinks as well. Also, Authorship doesn't work for the site. The Rich Snippets testing tool says everything's all right, but it never really works / shows up on SERPs. I fear it's because of a penalty. It seems to me like no one has ever thought about a penalty that affects Authorship. So, now you know the problem, and the things I did in order to fix it, could you tell me if: Google will lift the penalty whenever they wish. (And an ETA?) They'll lift it when the next major algorithmic update occurs. (I made the changes on September 28th) But I don't see how this is a possibility since Panda has now been integrated into the core algorithm. Anything else. Thanks in advance everyone!

What is the most effective way of indexing a localised website?
Hi all, I have a website, www.acrylicimage.com which provides products in three different currencies, $, £ and Euro. Currently a user can click on a flag to indicate which region they are in, or if the user has not manually selected the website looks at the users Locale setting and sets the region for them. The website also has a very simple content management system which provides ever so slightly different content depending on which region the user is in. The difference in content might literally be a few words per page, like contact details, measurements i.e. imperial to metric. I dont believe that GoogleBot, or any other bot for that matter, sets a Locale, and therefore it will only ever be indexing the content on our default region - the UK. So, my question really is if I need to be able to index different versions of content on the same page, is the best route to provide alternate urls i.e.: /en/about-us

/us/about-us
/eu/about-us The only potential downside I see to this is there are currently a couple of pages that do have exactly the same content regardless of whether you have selected the UK or USA regions - could this be considered content duplication? Thanks for your help. Al0
