On the surface, with it’s different spokespersons and Webmaster Tools,
\nGoogle is becoming much more transparent when it comes to how they rank
\ncontent on the web. They are openly discussing such things as:
\n
\n
\n1. Reasons Why Your PageRank On the Google Toolbar Would Drop?<\/b>
\n
\n
\nBesides having fewer links pointing to your site, there are many more
\nreasons why you may lose PageRank. You may have made internal
\nlinking changes which are affecting your PR. The Googlebot may
\nhave trouble accessing all of your content. Google may believe
\nyou’re selling links and have penalized your site. There may
\nbe canonicalization issues with the www vs non-www versions of
\nyour site.
\n
\n
\nAll these issues are discussed in this Matt Cutts Video:

2. Google May Let You Know About Any Automatic and Manual Spam Action Against Your Site?<\/b><\/p>\n

Google is becoming much more open about reporting both automatic and
\nmanual spam penalties taken against your site. Webmasters may now find
\nout if their site is violating Google’s Webmaster Guidelines and how to
\nfix any problems. Google says it will become more active in solving these
\nissues for webmasters.<\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3. Webmasters Can Even Make A Reconsideration Request To Get Their Site Back On Track.<\/b>
\n
\n
\nIf you do have find yourself or your site having an automatic or spam
\naction against your site, you can use the “Reconsideration Request” after
\nyou have fixed the problems. Google says it will be more open and transparent
\non letting you know about the status of your site. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“Now, if your site is affected by a manual spam action, we may let you know
\nif we were able to revoke that manual action based on your reconsideration request,”
\nexplained Tiffany Oberoi and Michael Wyszomierski (Google’s Search Quality Team)
\nin a blog post. “Or, we could tell you if your site is still in violation of our
\nguidelines. This might be a discouraging thing to hear, but once you know that
\nthere is still a problem, it will help you diagnose the issue.”<\/p>\n

You can find more about making a Reconsideration Request below:<\/p>\n

4. Google Browser Extension Which Lets Searchers Block Your Site.<\/b>
\n
\n
\nGoogle has announced that it is letting searchers, through a browser extension,
\nto block sites that they don’t like. Now Google is using this data and incorporating
\nit into their algorithm to lower these blocked sites in their search results.
\nOne of Google’s search quality engineers Johannes Henkel has stated: “We’ve also
\nstarted incorporating data about sites people have blocked into our general search
\nranking algorithms to help users find more high quality sites.” <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For those webmasters in very lucrative niche markets, this is extremely scary
\nstuff and wide open to abuse. One can even imagine “less than honest” people
\nhiring or utilizing whole armies of paid searchers blocking the sites of their
\ncompetitors.<\/p>\n


\n
\n5. Google’s Aim To Return “Single Page” or “View All” In Their SERPS.<\/b>
\n
\n
\nThis may be an important ranking factor since it is something all webmasters
\ncan easily fix. Instead of placing a long article or a lengthy piece of content
\non several pages – place this content on a single page. Google is placing more
\nemphasis on these View All pages and are ranking them higher. This all has to
\ndo with improving the searcher’s overall experience and providing quality content
\nin their SERPs.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These are just Five recent Google changes or issues which every webmaster should
\nbe aware of and acting on – if any of these affects your site. Google is THE most
\nimportant search engine and it is in your best interest to keep Google as Happy
\nas is Humanly possible. Just make it your daily mantra.<\/p>\n
