Yeah, I also am suspect that Google Search is using it in their Ranking calculation. After migrating a large client to GAE we've seen traffic go the wrong way, which shouldn't have happened considering that by every metric the migration made the pages faster, (bonus in rankings).
While it is possible that what we are seeing is that with a deeper index that Google found more things to Dislike about the site. Bing/Yahoo Traffic is through the roof since the move... Apparently in their scoring we are served BY Google equates to Made by Google. And we have 10x'd our traffic from them, which off sets the 30% drop in traffic from Google Search. But since Google Traffic seems to monetize better, revenue is off about 10%. Matt C is way more tight lipped about what things may or may not be changing results than he used to be so I haven't asked if this might be the case. -----Original Message----- From: google-appengine@googlegroups.com [mailto:google-appengine@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Robert Kluin Sent: Wednesday, April 13, 2011 10:53 AM To: google-appengine@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [google-appengine] AppEngine IPs in SpamHaus On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 02:35, Barry Hunter <barrybhun...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 13 April 2011 17:50, Ikai Lan (Google) <ika...@google.com> wrote: > >> On another note: does the world really need more URL shorteners? > > Does the world need *any* URL shorteners?
