Google Gives Search a Refresh!!!
- Thread starter projectx
- Start date
Well, in my opinion, google is a corporation, and they have stocks. They need to release some info to get their stocks going up. I don't think they are actually going to do much to change the search principle, I think it's more to just give the media some info that they are doing something.

The guys over at IMNorth wrote about it also. http://www.imnorth.com/google-semantic-search/
Perhaps they are right, kngine.com might give us an idea in what direction Google is heading.

Interesting article and the article mentions that this might affect 10-20% of searches so there is still a very large majority of searches that will not be affected.

This new Semantic Search is(still) just about relevance and quality. I've said it countless times, and I will say it again - Google has always been about providing the most relevant results to people using their search engine.
That is how they keep the majority of the market share which in turn gives them more money from their advertising platforms.
To be honest, this is really nothing new. Google has been trying to get their algorithm to the point where it can "think" more like a human would for years. That is why they are continually testing new changes to their algorithm and collecting data on those changes.
It looks like maybe they finally have collected enough data to validate a change in their algorithm, but if you have high-quality websites that are relevant to their targeted niche/topic(not an EMD with a few pages of similar KW-targeted content), I don't think you will have too much to worry about.
