Google Webmaster SEO ReportIt has been a very busy month, I believe the busiest month since doing these monthly Google webmaster recaps. As most of you know, I summarize the past month of Google changes as they related to SEO and web search concerns. It is often based off an ongoing WebmasterWorld thread.

This month, the thread has been dominated by the Farmer Update. But it is easy to forget with all that is going on that there were some other major webmaster related occurrences this month in relation to Google.

The month had a few themes:

(1) Farmer/Panda Update
(2) Big Brand Penalties
(3) User Interface & Feature Updates

Below is a break out of our stories in those three categories, followed by a miscellaneous category for other SEO topics related to Google in the past month. And don't forget, you can also see the February 2011 Google report to get up to speed.
