This week in the video search recap, I mention the monthly recap I posted this week. I talk about a possible test algorithm Google deployed for spammy results. Google released there Google Search Console, Search Analytics API. Google is now showing 3 local results, a 3 pack, as opposed to 7 local results. Bing has a new warning for fake pharmacy web sites in their results. Google has a new rich snippet for movie critics. Google tells you not to no index your web site when you go on vacation and that 404ing pages doesn’t lead to a Google penalty. Google is trying out removing Google+ links in the local results. Google Map Maker is an awesome way to find duplicate local listings. Google AdWords has a slick new reporting maker. Google AdWords now lets you restructure your product groups on bulk upload. Google AdWords released an update to the AdWords app that adds billing features. Finally, Google Analytics replaced the AdSense report section with the Publisher report section. That was this past week in search at the Search Engine Roundtable.
