This was a pretty mild week in search as reported at the Search Engine Roundtable, which is good because my iPhone 6 is on the FedEx truck now. Bing dropped out 130 million URLs for keyword stuffing and explained how they did it. Google may have penalized Turkish news sites for content spam. Google Sitelinks Search box is working for publishers. But Google is promoting it to webmasters and also sharing common mistakes. I shared data on my HTTPS migration, you want to check it out. I shared why Google sometimes shows and not shows credit links for Knowledge Graph answers but why are some sources randomized? Google+ did not drop knowledge graph box details, yet. Google+ Business reviews is testing a new feature I think. Google AdWords ad preview and diagnosis tool bug is now fixed. That was this past week in search at the Search Engine Roundtable.
