You won’t see the same sites on the first two pages.

So much fluff from Google.

There are plenty of factors that can lead to a decrease in traffic, many not related to the update at all. Monitor your sites and look for fluctuations in data and then investigate if the change in traffic happened algorithmically or by other factors.

Sites like that will eventually lose their 2 seconds of fame and come crashing down. It’s only a matter of time.

I think the first couple rounds of updates last year shook everyone up a bit, so now people expect all updates to knock them off the radar. But what seems more correct is this is just a minor tweak to the major update that was already done. They should have called this one Penguin 1.1, but then nobody would have panicked, and I’m sure Google is trying to keep people on their toes.

“Update: I see now where the confusion comes from, via TWIG, right over here where Matt said Penguin looks at the home page of the site. Matt must mean Penguin only analyzed the links to the home page. But anyone who had a site impacted by Penguin noticed not just their home page ranking suffer. So I think that is the distinction.”

Penguin though is automatic and I was referring to the automatic clasification of links.
