Hey Guys,

I know this might not be the greatest example for it, but recently running a search in google.com for "world of warcraft" delivers a slightly different SERP.... now has the option to refine your search results?

Anyone else notice something similar to this? Perhaps that holiday update that was rumoured to take place they are testing?

Hi Brett

I have seen it too. However result seen by you is only coming when I have searched for the keyword mentioned by you. I have searched for few other keywords but nowhere I get the similar result as of "world of warcraft".

But nice to see the new look.

Not very new. http://www.webmasterworld.com/google/3089761.htm there were few who pointed out this sometime back.

I have never investigated on it but people believe that it is applied for few sections only.

You can make it happen for almost any keyphrase example for Hedir.


If it happens for your industry its really bad Sad. First the visitors will get confused and secondly you will lose some good traffic. I am not sure whether google will apply it for all the words.

Don't see any reason why it would be bad? and secondly it seems Google is trying to teach browsers how to search Rolling Eyes if they use it

Bad if you are ranking high for some major keyphrases.

Like for the keyphrase ""World of warcraft" the #1 site will lose some traffic to communities or reviews.

It is a good news for Hedir look at this
Phparch.com Reviews or any site submitted for review.
