Google and Bing are the big buzzers on this week’s top search-related news.

Google Penguin to Roll Out Indefinitely

We’ve been talking a lot about the new penguin update, and until now, there’s still something to talk about.

In what could be taken as either good news or bad news for webmasters, Google’s John Mueller confirmed Penguin 3.0 is still rolling out, and will continue indefinitely.

Addressing questions in a recent Webmaster Central Hangout, Mueller said the Penguin update is, essentially, still rolling out to some extent. It’s because the search giant is doing a slow and cautious roll out.

Asked if there will be formal notification when the update is complete, Mueller says don’t count on it. They’re hoping the algorithm will just keep on updating.
