Hi everyone,

I just read a tweet by Matt Cutts, head of the webspam team at Google.

He tweeted this on the 28 Sept 2012:

"Minor weather report: small upcoming Google algo change will reduce low-quality "exact-match" domains in search results."

What effects will this have on websites/blog rankings & search results?
#domains #exact #match

    The effect is already here - update from September 30th, which reduced the importance of EMD domains.

    Yeah, this update has hurt a lot of people on WF. Look around for some fairly expansive threads.
