Are you wondering how SEO strategies will be affected by the new Google Caffeine technology?

As we ready for the release of Google Caffeine, SEO consultants have been following the comments from testers from around the world.  On Google’s blog, the initial Google Caffeine press release, has resulted in over 200 comments to date.

A great article by Ben Parr showed some initial test results that concluded that Google Caffeine is fast and produces more relevant search results pages.

Matt Cutts from Google also discusses the Google Caffeine Update.  If you have not followed Matt’s blog I recommend that you do and some should consider just following his RSS feed.

Bing and Google Caffeine

Bing has been on an advertising roll lately poking fun at how much “clutter” is in search engine result pages.  Not naming Google specifically, Microsoft’s Bing advertisements hint that Bing produces cleaner and more relevant results.

When Caffeine rolls out, it may make that ad campaign obsolete.  I have been enjoying Bing, when I occasionally test our SEO strategies, but the logic behind their SERP’s is very different from Google.  Special optimization strategies need to be directed toward top rankings in Bing.  Never a dull a moment.

Google Caffeine SEO

We are actually very happy to hear that Google is upping the bar for SERP and of course we will be testing how Google Caffeine affects our SEO strategies.  We have done a few tests using the Caffeine sandbox tool located at: http://www2.sandbox.google.com

Some of the search phrases we have tested, that we have targeted for ourselves  or for our automotive clients are shown below:

Testing Google Caffeine

From what we can see, just looking at SERP results is not what makes Google Caffeine different.  I think that quality content and quality links will be more rewarded in Google Caffeine.  When Google Caffeine is released into production, we predict that our content rich microsite models will be lifted.

Our Automotive SEO clients will be doubly rewarded because of our network of high ranking automotive blogs and websites.
