  1. Good podcast! I’ve read somewhere that a smaller quantity of web content has been penalised after the latest Penguin update – less than 1% of the websides. I wonder if webside optimization practicess have become more Google friendly, i.e. less black hat technicks applied, or Google itself has lower its ranking requirements. I really doubt that Google has become more tolerant towards bad link bilding, but who knows…
