"Yesterday we broke the news that there was an other update that overlapped the EMD update that we had on friday targeting exact match domains.I wasn't sure what that update was, so I emailed our friends at Google and Matt Cutts responded that it was a Panda update that began to roll out on Thursday and has been continuing to roll out even today and will likely finish rolling out through the weekend.This is not a basic data refresh to the Panda algorithm, it is an update to the algorithm itself.  Meaning, new sites and old sites are more likely to be impacted even without making any changes.  In fact, Matt said 2.4% of English queries were impacted and 0.5% of non-English queries were impacted.Here is the quote:Google began rolling out a new update of Panda on Thursday, 9/27. This is actually a Panda algorithm update, not just a data update. A lot of the most-visible differences went live Thursday 9/27, but the full rollout is baking into our index and that process will continue for another 3-4 days or so. This update affects about 2.4% of English queries to a degree that a regular user might notice, with a smaller impact in other languages (0.5% in French and Spanish, for example).Panda Overlaps EMD UpdateNow, this is overlapping the EMD update! So it would be hard for some EMDs to know if the EMD update hurt them or if it was a Panda update that hurt them.  I hate when Google does this but they likely had good reason to do so.  Matt Cutts is not dumb, he understands the webmaster - despite what most of you think - and he made a conscious decision to let a major Panda update overlap the EMD update.  Panda #20: Why Not Panda 4.0Why are we moving away from version numbers for the Panda update? Technically, I would have named it Panda 4.0, but Danny Sullivan decided he rather just number them based on how many updates there have been.  So we had 20 Panda updates and only 2 Penguin updates (at least on the record).Past Google Panda Update:\r\n\r\nPanda #20 on September 27th\r\nPanda 3.9.2 on September 18th\r\nPanda 3.9.1 on August 20th\r\nPanda 3.9 on July 24th\r\nPanda 3.8 on June 25th\r\nPanda 3.7 on June 9th\r\nPanda 3.6 on April 27th\r\nPanda 3.5 on April 19th\r\nPanda 3.4 on March 23rd\r\nPanda 3.3 on about February 26th\r\nPanda 3.2 on about January 15thPanda 3.1 on November 18th\r\nPanda 2.5.3 on October 19/20th\r\nPanda 2.5.2 on October 13th\r\nPanda 2.5.1 on October 9th\r\nPanda 2.5 on September 28th\r\nPanda 2.4 in August\r\nPanda 2.3 on around July 22nd.\r\nPanda 2.2 on June 18th or so.\r\nPanda 2.1 on May 9th or so.\r\nPanda 2.0 on April 11th or so.\r\nPanda 1.0 on February 24thForum discussion at WebmasterWorld, Google+ and Google Webmaster Help."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
