From there, Google started posting monthly lists of &#8220;search quality highlights,&#8221; looking at changes (many algorithmic) the search engine had implemented in the previous month. This did continue on a monthly basis for some time. <\/p>\n<p>At some point last year, Google slowed down on putting these lists out. They started coming every other month, with multiple lists released at a time. It&#8217;s now over a week into February, and we haven&#8217;t seen Google put out one of these lists <a href=\"http:\/\/insidesearch.blogspot.com\/2012\/10\/search-quality-highlights-65-changes.html\">since October 4<\/a>. This is the longest they&#8217;ve gone, by far, since they started doing it. <\/p>\n<p>The lists were an attempt by Google to &#8220;push the envelope when it comes to transparency&#8221;. That&#8217;s cool. It gives the rest of the web a glimpse at the kinds of things Google is taking into account when making algorithm changes, even if it doesn&#8217;t give away Google&#8217;s entire secret sauce (which would likely be he downfall of any search result relevancy). <\/p>\n<p>But where are the last four months worth of highlights? <\/p>\n<p>The last time I <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webpronews.com\/google-algorithm-changes-seriously-is-google-not-sharing-them-anymore-2012-08\">wrote a post about Google not putting out these lists<\/a>, they put one out shortly after. Maybe that will happen again. <\/p>\n<p>One thing is for sure. If Google gets back to putting these lists out, we&#8217;re going to have a whole lot of info to dig into for the time that has passed. <\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:wF9xT3WuBAs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:wF9xT3WuBAs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:7Q72WNTAKBA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=7Q72WNTAKBA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:mfZ73u_VV2s\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=1ZYadmjy-i8:FlN0Nk95KTk:mfZ73u_VV2s\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/webpronews\/all\/~4\/1ZYadmjy-i8\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On December 1, 2011, Google announced a &#8220;monthly series on algorithm changes&#8221; on its Inside Search blog.
