Google Gives No Comment On Pigeon Updates

Aug 5, 2014 - 8:56 am 15 by

Google PigeonOn Friday we reported on a refresh of the local search results, after the major Google Pigeon update a week or so before. We named it the Pigeon 1.1 update and asked Google for a comment.

Google basically told us they have nothing to say on this and likely will not provide future details on local search algorithm changes.

Here are the search results for the query [ice cream] I have been tracking:

Pigeon 1.0:
google-pigeon-ice-cream-before

Pigeon 1.1:
google-pigeon-ice-cream-after

Today, about the same but different order:
google-pigeon-ice-cream-after after

Again, Google would not confirm 1.1 and likely won't be confirming future Pigeon refreshes.
