Over last few days I have been seeing news items about an upcoming google algo change.
Google say their hand has been pressed by a recent link bomb attack on automobile companies and they are taking steps to change the algo to stop these spam attacks being effective.
I guess they are talking about people who use software like xrumer but how will they achieve this?
Previous updates have seen the depreciation of meta tags, keyword stuffing, gateway pages and reciprocal links. What will it be this time?
My money is that people doing blog marketing will be effected. Seeing as the software exploits the comment field on blogs then I am guessing that they will work out a way to identify links in blog comments and greatly depreciate them.
Anyone else have any ideas?

I think they already do this. Same with forum signatures. Or maybe they're going to devalue them even more? Good news for me

The future of linbuilding is in the social sector. Sites that have a social reputation.

I feel it is very difficult to change that algo completely, but yes there can be some modifications. we never know what google is upto.

Directories already lost its importance. But social media and bookmarking will be still there. With changing algo, our linkbuilding technique is also going to get modified.

Has anyone seen any changes? I've read a lot about people recently going from page one to page ten, and other people moving up a lot. But it hasn't happened for any of my stuff, like the search "trade show marketing advice". In my field we all seem to be stuck in the mud where we are - changes are very slow. Maybe it's only the competitive search terms?
