I am back in New York and this week's video recap should be clearer. SEOs have been begging for a Toolbar PageRank update and some got it. Google AdWords changed their display URL policy, they will lowercase the domain portion of the URL. Google shocked some AdSense publishers, saying they only allow unique content to participate in the program. Google launched Engage for Agencies in the US and UK. Google Product Search now gets some of their data from the source. Google News has continued delays in including new publications. Google hired two new SEOs, including Gary Illyes and Pierre Far. There is an outstanding thread you have to read, between a sketchy SEO and John and Matt from Google. SphinnCon Israel was this past Sunday and we have the recap. That was this week in search from the Search Engine Roundtable. Happy New Years!
