@snyxiusAug 05.2014 — #That is google Pigeon update
Google would not give us metrics on how large it was but it was large enough for them to inform us about it.
That being said, we had SEOs and Webmasters claim they love the results and hate the results. Which is not uncommon but I do not see levels of complaints as I would see when Google releases a Penguin or Panda update.
@AvniShergillAug 05.2014 — #Recently their was Pegion update, which was related to the local search and will have minor effect on the Google maps and classifieds listing.
@ileaddigitalAug 18.2014 — #Pigeon is all about local business marketing. It is new Google Algorithm launched in July of 2014. It will monitor all local business factors, specially Map locations, citations, business reviews, local business listings, etc. and much more.
