In this week in search, I discuss how Matt Cutts of Google's statements on the nofollow attribute used for PageRank sculpting has sent shock waves through the industry. I discuss that topic for a while, so you may want to listen to it. Yahoo Search had a confirmed algorithm and index update. Google's search snippets can be dangerous and might even get you sued. Microsoft launched Bing early, people like it but it wasn't added to Google Analytics, doesn't seem to support the NOODP tag and hijacked IE6 users. AdWords is testing a very neat feature named Bid Simulator. Google Local Business Center added nice analytics. Google Square is live, what should SEOs know about it. SMX Advanced was this passed week, don't miss the live blogging. That was this past week at the Search Engine Roundtable.
