What Is The Google Pigeon Update?
Launched on July 24, 2014 for U.S. English results, the “Pigeon Update” is a new algorithm to provide more useful, relevant and accurate local search results that are tied more closely to traditional web search ranking signals.
What does it Mean?
Your local search results rankings can increase or decrease depending on the accuracy of your Google profiles. To gain web site referrals, leads and business from the changes you need to make sure your Google Maps and Google Plus pages are accurate and complete to 100%.
IGoogle said that this “new algorithm improves their distance and location ranking parameters”.
