Comment on Google Testing 3 Organic Results? by David

Andrew, it’s a standard Google “everything” result, it showed up again this time with 6 places and 6 organic results. If I select “more places results” I get a full page of just places listings.

It doesn’t appear to be a hybrid result it seems to be the new Organic results which are being tested.

Andrew, I did the search on my PC running on ADSL but tried to replicate it again and I couldn’t replicate it. Darryl King said he saw the same thing last night on a search he did.

Are you sure that you are not getting hybrid places listings? Do another search in places on its own and post a picture.

Are you on fixed line or mobile broadband?

Comment on Refresh trends to end 2011 by David

Hello Peter,

Ah yes certainly a bit of overkill as it appears Google has refreshed it’s toolbar already and rolled back to a Hybrid model of the black toolbar it just replaced!

Thanks for helping me get an idea of this stuff. Could be refresh overkill?

I just have not been able to really get into the Facebook Timeline thing much. I like the idea, but it seems to be a large departure from what people are used to. Over time I am sure more people will jump onto it too.

We shall see.

And they removed the RSS-feeds for each account, which is very sad.

Interesting. Not showing it on my end (in Virginia, USA) for these phrases. Must be geographical, or something else.

It seems to do it for a few variations such as "rug shops", but I tried a number of other variations such as clothes or toy shops and it did not work. I did find it also worked for "tile shops" and "carpet shops". So I assume there must be something unique about those types of search queries that Google is able to understand and see a benefit if it broadens the search term. One other curve ball is that Google is boosting it's search volume for those terms for some commercial reason.

Very interesting.

I couldn’t replicate this though. What was the exact search phrase that you used, David?

Also it may be that they are still testing this (displaying this selectively).

The perils of wildcard DNS, topped of by the absence of canonical tags
