Google Changes Up The Search Results Page
-
Hi Guys,
As you Google has made changes on search results page. I have two points two discuss here :
1. Are we going to see more ads on left sidebar in future ?
2. I think it will also affect the CTR of top three ads in SERP ?
Waiting for you guys opinion on it ?

I am using 15 inch LG monitor, and after just this update I only see one organic result on first page for "seo company" keyword. I don't know what will going to happen in tablets, ipads etc.
Please find attached screen shot from my computer. I am using Mozilla Firefox and window XP operating system.

No doubt the left hand real estate will be used for Google's benefit, time will tell if it's for paid search or for semantic results (which keeps a user on Google longer rather than them heading off to another website for information).
The more content above the fold would most likely affect CTR of the top three ads, but if it's more ads then perhaps it will also make the first page ads more accessible for high cost keywords for clients with medium to low budgets.
It hasn't been rolled out in New Zealand yet.... but I'm sure it's coming!

Yes, I have noticed this sporadically and now it seems permanent. I have to confess, I've had a few "Who moved my cheese?" moments...lol. I had a lot of trouble finding the "related searches" field. I still have to look for it every time I want to do fast and dirty keyword research. They've changed the image search too and moved the links to search tools from the left nav to the top. Right now I don't like it, but I think that's only because it's different and I can't find anything. Ask me again in 6 months

What are your opinions on the Google News vs Spanish Government Issue ?
Greg Sterling said: "Governments across Europe are justifiably alarmed by the declining fortunes of their respective newspaper industries. However punitive or parasitic taxation measures targeting Google, masquerading as copyright protections, are not the answer." Do you agree?

Does Google still have a standard search result? How can I get it?
I have heard a lot from the experts that there are no "Standard" Google search results anymore. They said that most of the SERP's of Google that show up are customized/tailored for each individuals even if they are not logged-in using their Google Custom Search. My questions are, Is there still a way to retrieve the standard Google search result? How? Are these scripts will be helpful when searching on Google? *webhp?

Why is Bing Showing Insurance Ads For Link Building Searches?
I keep seeing multiple (2-3 per search) car insurance ads when I search for "link building" on Bing. I made a blog post that shows a screenshot and has more details. I'm not aware of any retargeting or other targeting options Bing offers that would show nonrelevant ads on a search like this. Or is there such a feature that I don't know about? My best theories are that it is a bug, or that Bing is testing something new. Any ideas?

Anyone seen any dramatic changes in SERPs 18th Feb?
Hi Guys, Wondering if there has been an algorithm update or new Panda released today? Not seen any news in Google yet however noticed fair shuffle of all results in my niche, particularly in the top 3. The main take I've had from the brief research is that the brands in the niche have popped up a few spots and blogs / affiliate sites etc have dropped. Results noticed using Google.co.uk
