2010: The Dawn of the Modern Google
Mayday Update was the first major update targeting content quality and a precursor to Panda.
Brand update allows domains to show up more than once in the search results.
Social signals from Twitter and Facebook are used for the first time as a supplemental proxy for links in Google’s
ranking algorithms.

2011: The Year of the PandaOverstock.com penalized for link-building scheme while JCPenney is outed and penalized for buying links. Google
starts enforcing link ethics.
Google rolls out Panda, the most profound update ever related to content quality. Over two dozen iterations of
Panda have since been released.
The hits kept coming with the introduction of +1 and Google+, Schema, authorship markup encrypted search
and Freshness update.
![Page 28: Google Hummingbird in a Social Media World](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051613/54c6e6c14a7959fe038b456d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What Was Panda, Again?
• Major update focused on website quality• Low-quality and thin-content sites were heavily
filtered from the search results• Well-known brands with rich, exceptional
content were the big winners while content farms such as About.com, e-How.com and Mahalo.com saw crippling losses• Website quality extends to on-page factors, domain
factors, page speed and content engagement

2012: The Year of the Penguin
Penguin is the other shoe for black-hat SEO. Whereas Panda focused on content quality, Penguin decimated most
shady link building practices. Five updates have been made to Penguin since.
Google also rolled out Knowledge Graph, one of its first major uses of Schema.org markup.
Search+ Your World and the Venice update, which affected local search queries, round out 2012.

What Was Penguin, Again?
• Major update focused on backlinks• Google wages war on “Black Hat” SEOs• Link-building schemes such as link networks, paid
linking, link directories and low-quality link acquisition dry up• Google stresses earning links naturally through earning
attention of the voices that matter in your space• The era of high-quality content marketing and Inbound
Marketing begins• Great search now all but demands social collaboration
