Even though all I could see was an amazing array of fancy graphics, confusing charts that showed the hurricane spinning off in all different devastating directions, several amateur cell phone camera videos of swaying trees, and a few newscasters in neon slickers getting pelted by rain drops… you had this ominous sense that: It was coming!

Read MoreGoogle’s New Algorithm Change Puts Unique Content Ahead of the Rest…
Published on March 7, 2011So it’s been almost 2 weeks since Google announced their new algorithm change, and websites are still freaking out. Content farms and other sites like Ezine Articles and Mahalo lost first page rankings overnight. Mahalo had to lay off 10% of it’s employees, you can read the article here.

Google is rewarding those websites who use unique content and penalizing those who use crappy content to trick the search engines. So where does Mod Girl Marketing stand in all of this? Still at the top, of course!
