  Big Daddy Progress Update

From Matt Cutt's Blog:

"We’re down to just 1-2 data centers left in the switchover to Bigdaddy. It’s possible that the Bigdaddy switchover will be complete in the next week or two. Just as a reminder, Bigdaddy is a software upgrade to Google’s infrastructure that provides the framework for a lot of improvements to core search quality in the coming months (smarter redirect handling, improved canonicalization, etc.). A team of dedicated people has worked very hard on this change; props to them for the code, sweat, and hours they’ve put into it."

loving this update. gone from pos.2 out of 9mil to pos.1 out of 36mil on .co.uk

same search term on google.com puts me in pos.3 out of 8mill though

Seem to have lost about 2k links (or maybe they are just not showing up now?)

I think I can live with that.

Read rollback thread. I think this could explain your loss in links. It will only be temporarily while all the sites are re-crawled.

Quite the contrary we are still getting similar levels of traffic from Goog to both CompareStorePrices and our W3A sites but it's always a nervous time when any change to the algos are rolling out.
