Yesterday we reported that Google rolled out a “minor” update to the Google Panda algorithm, which we labelled Panda 2.5.2.

The thing is, the level of complaints and forum posts, as well as comments on my post, is at a level that seems to be more than “minor” by our standards.

There are literally hundreds of complaints, complaints maybe at levels closer to a full major update to the Panda algorithm, as opposed to what we saw back on October 9th.

Here are some of the many threads I’ve seen with complaints at the Google Webmaster Help Forums, HighRankings Forums and WebmasterWorld.

Here are some of the complaints:

My 3-year-old site is about sharing the adventure of the renovation of my little house, with emphasis on energy efficiency and downsizing. Traffic has been growing steadily, thanks to all the original content, lots and lots of original photos, how-to’s, interesting stories of the successes and failures. this is an ongoing project; as recently as last Thursday, I uploaded a page with some “Before and After” photos and descriptions.

I have followed all the rules over the years, yet on the morning of October 14 I woke up to an unexplainable 60% drop in traffic. I’ve heard that Google has been adjusting its algorithm or something. I don’t understand how that works but I know that I have not done anything to deserve this huge loss (which of course is translated into a corresponding loss of income from my site).

I would like to hear FROM GOOGLE why my site was singled out for this disaster and what I can do to regain my traffic and my confidence in Google.

Oct. 14, 2011 – mid day, notice huge drop in traffic, a visitor here and there from google maybe every 2 or 3 minutes. Site is over 8 years old, no major changes have been done. Survived many Panda updates/tweeks prior to today, not sure what happened or how to go about fixing it. any suggestions are welcome.

My site is about 13 months old. I have had increasing traffic until Oct. 14, when my traffic declined 67% overnight. I have put in hundreds of hours creating original, very informative, content to help my readers and I add about 4 pages per month. Is there something I have done to get this amount of loss in traffic?

Those are just a few of the hundreds of complaints in the various forums and blogs. To me, this October 13/14th update to Panda seems a lot more significant than what Google made it out to be. Or maybe I am wrong?

Every customer when making a purchase hopes to get the value they paid for. Things are no different when users are shopping for a web hosting plan. these days, users are spoiled for choice as there are so many types of hosting plans out there and most of them are available at rock bottom prices. these cheap price tags attract the attention of many customers as they promise a lot of features for a small price. However, some of these cheap hosting plans may not be worth the few dollars saved.

One of the most common problems faced by users of cheap hosting plans is the poor performance. as most service providers tend to use cheap hardware to run their operations, the performance provided to its users will be mediocre at best. The server’s performance might continue to deteriorate as the server increases the amount of websites it hosts. as a result, the users will end up with a slow site. Visitors to these sites will find that it will take a very long time to load these sites and it could be really frustrating for them. Some customers may never return again if the site’s performance is really bad.

Aside from a slow site, many users face the problem of constant downtime as well. Basically, when your site is experiencing downtime, visitors won’t be able to visit your site. instead of displaying your site’s contents, an error page will be displayed instead. This problem stems from the fact that cheap hardware was used to run the server. This problem will persist more often if the number of sites on the server continues to increase. However, if you search carefully, there are cheap hosting companies out there that offer 99.9% uptime.

Spamming is another common occurrence associated with cheap hosting plans. Most spammers choose cheap hosting plans to run their operations due to the low cost. as such, they will run hundreds of their websites on the server. these spamming websites usually get reported and they are usually banned by search engines. since it is hosted on a shared server, any site hosted on the same server shares the same IP address. This means, if you happen to share a server with a spamming website that gets banned, your site will be banned as well. This can be a very costly problem if you running an online business.

As mentioned above, there are quite a number of problems that may arise from using a cheap hosting plan. you should consider these issues carefully before you sign up for it. if you are planning to host an online business site, perhaps you should consider a more reliable hosting plan. However, if you prefer to start with a cheap hosting plan, you should opt for reliable hosting company to avoid any of these problems.
