Hey matt, thanks for the update I wanted to know how would it work in this case: http://www.google.com/#q=major+online+dating+sites+koopa&... We submitted an article to ezinearticles from our blog.koopa.com. Just wondering how our blog is not remotely listed but ezine which we posted are article through our blog has? How does this work when our authors submit to article directories? On that same note I notice a bu…
Glad to see that Matt went out of his way to help us geeks and the StackOverFlow community! In the future is there going to be some way for webmasters to do something like rel="canonical" across domains so if I want to syndicate a piece of content across two properties I own I can indicate which one is the original source? My understanding is that rel="canonical" is only meant to be used between pages on the same roo…
rel="canonical does work across domains.
Since Matt is responding here, I figured this is worth a shot, no harm in asking. Matt, would love a response from you if you get a chance, since the Webmaster Tools appeals process gives no insight whatsoever to our situation. Following on from one of the comments here, namely the idea that "value is in the eye of the beholder", I'd like to raise our own plight. I run a number of aggregator sites - the largest and o…
Respectfully - Sites like yours ruin the internet. You admit it yourself: you produce no content of your own. I do NOT want to see results from pages of that ilk when I google for things. Google made the right choice to de-index it.

Also, we do actually produce some original content, we have a small staff of writers who create "featured posts" every day - sold ourselves a little short there.

query: Mailengine with .NET API
The right page that should show up is
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1720900/mailengine-with-n...
If you google the link below you'll see that the page is indexed.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1720900/mailengine-with-n...
However, the page doesn't show up when you use the query I mentioned.

This is awesome! Now if only I could completely remove certain sites from my search results ala the Google Wiki stuff. I'd love to drop swik, and expertsexchange and a few other annoying sites. Its possible this algorithm change will make these sites less annoying to me though.
If the algorithm properly detected site relevance, importance and viewer satisfaction, those copycat sites should never have ranked higher in the first place. In a way this is admitting that it is impossible to stop the gaming of search engine optimization, and that the only way to deal with it is to "win" in some special cases.
That being said I provide no real solution, this is a huge problem with millions behind each side.
Although this is good news it is also gloom news.
