It looks like there is a big Google search ranking algorithm rolling out now, on August 10th. This is not a confirmed update by Google, at least not yet. But the chatter since 2pm ET today has been really high within the SEO community. The rank checking tools have not yet updated, but I suspect the tools will show something tomorrow.
The comments on my post about this past weekend’s update is now rumbling with comments about today. Here are some quotes from there:
HUUUUUGE MOVEMENTS Right now. I thought it was just me but checked all my competitors, things are going absolute bonkers right now. Websites from the 6/7th page are #1 on top competition search words right now
Absolutely insane. What’s happening right now?
I believe it’s still in progress. Crazy movements here too. If it stays like this, I am wiped out.
Doesn’t look like a “glitch”, looks like a major update.
Funny, right after everyone get an email about class action in regards Google+ they do this sh*t. Got to push everyone to PPC to cover the settlement I guess
I am seeing big fluctutations currently, big jumps on a desktop and big drops on a mobile for one of my sites in the UK. Strap in folks, this could get messy.
The WebmasterWorld forums is spiking with chatter as well:
Anyone seeing a significant decrease in traffic today ? French Websites
Yes a significant drop in traffic since Monday (ecommerce FR, Brand website)
I had a huge drop on Saturday, Sunday and this morning. Only now at lunch did I notice a significant improvement.
Tourism, USA
Seems like a big update in progress here in Italy.
Every niche I follow is messed up. Shops are gone, affiliate sites have disappeared, serps are full of Amazon, ebay and news sites.
wow insane big update here in Norway, never seen so big change.
And Black Hat World has a spike in chatter:
Some of my white hat e-commerce sites seem to have taken a beating over the last three days. What’s happening chaps?
Looks like a new big update is releasing
Here are some folks on Twitter asking me:
@rustybrick there’s an update per 10 Aug, seems like a big-impact update on SERP @seroundtable @sejournal

@rustybrick huge update going on in Italy and other European countries, seems like Google applied a filter to exclude affiliates and small shops from serps. 1st page made by amazon+ebay+news sites. Hope this is a test / bug.

Again, it is too soon to look at the rank checking tools but something big is going on.
Google has not confirmed any changes, yet. It might be a bug or it might be a new Google search ranking release or maybe something else.
I’ll keep watching things overnight and if I see anything new, I will report back in the morning.
Hope you are all seeing positive signs.
