How Google Evaluate New Search Algorithms

Few days ago Head of Search Spam Matt Cutts gives us a video that describe how Google evaluating new search algorithm which one they are going to use or which one they are going throw away.

A question was asked by James Foster of Sydney:


What metrics Google used to calculate that one function of the ranking algorithm is gives the good quality result to user than other?

Matt Cutts give the answer into the three steps, that how they evaluate search algorithms:

  1. They test the results of the algorithms and compare their results rank with the new algorithms offline, If the URLs in the result are of high quality then the last algorithms takes place. The quality of a URL is based on search quality raters that how they rate the URLs in the last cases. If the URLs are not rated, then Google could request the raters  to rate the new URLs or benchmark the previous search result to this set of new test. Based on these metrics, Google can decide to carry on to the next level.
  2. Online Tests, here Google have the sample of real live searchers and place them to the new results with the new test algorithm sets. If Google catch the high rate of clicks in new search results, then it shows that the results in this are better than older ones. Matt Cutts said that, this case is not for always but in general the more click at the specific search result page more is the quality result.
  3. After that the Search Quality Launch Committee of Google have to decide that the algorithm is going to live or not. Matt Cutts told that Google have a “very pretty system” but they need to filter some of his processes within the workflow.

Tesla Model S & BMW i3 Get New Skins

Tesla may be the most American car company nowadays, and especially once the gigafactory gets rolling. In honor of Veterans Day , Tesla rolled out a a Tesla Model S with camouflage vinyl wrap and louvered back windows. The special Model S was also stamped with a nice Twitter hashtag, #TeslaVets. It’s a nice tribute to the guys and gals who put their lives on the line in the name of the USA, and it also brings attention to the fact that one of the best ways to protect the country from some of its biggest threats, global warming and oil wars, is to go electric. But this isn’t Tesla’s first sign of support for vets. The California-based car company has also committed to hiring a lot of them . “The actual work was done by SS Customs, and also features unique camo wheels, a roof rack, and yellow military-esque headlights,” GAS2 writes . “Tesla revealed the Veterans day tribute via its Facebook page , with this simple message; ‘A heartfelt Veterans Day thank you to all wh

Taylor Swift Unhappy After Princeton Review Misquotes Her Lyrics in SAT Test Paper

Image courtesy: TaylorSwiftVEVO/YouTube The popstar of several multi-million dollar hits and multi-million dollar legs , Taylor Swift is not one to be messed with. The Princeton Review found that out the hard way after they published Tay Tay's lyrics as an example of bad grammar on a SAT practice test. To be fair, they were trying to make the point that pop songs are where grammar goes to die and also cited other pop singers such as Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga and Kesha. The fiercely loyal Tay Tay fans were not likely to let this go by and Tumblr user Nava who was apparently having ' an amazing time studying for SAT' when she spotted this, posted a snapshot with the caption, " .... it isn't a pop song it's a country pop song so take that Princeton review Taylor is grammar queen so shhhhhh.." Source Unluckily for the Princeton Review however they misquoted the lyrics of the song Fifteen. The question paper wanted students to g

Ariana Grande Shows Off Her Killer Vocals in "Adore"—Listen to the Cashmere Cat Song Here!

Get ready to have another  Ariana Grande  hit on your mind all day! The 21-year-old's second album,  My Everything,  was full of music production from Norwegian producer  Cashmere Cat,  who even nabbed a "featured" credit on "Be My Baby," and now the singer has returned the favor. Cashmere Cat just released a new single titled "Adore," which features Ariana, but don't let that little F-word fool ya. The entire song is Grande and her hypnotizing voice serenading the listener over the Norwegian producer's ecclectic beat. It's really one great electro and R&B pairing that you never saw coming. As for whether or not she's singing about  Big Sean  (oh, c'mon, we all know you're thinking it)—we're gonna go with a "probably." The lyrics go a little something like this: "Boy so what's been on your mind?/ For me it's just you all the time/ We don't need to go nowhere tonight/ It'
