Tons of sites going “Supplemental Results”.
Don’t really see anyone chatting about it….not sure why…. but tons of sites have gone Supplemental in Google…all pages except the homepages.
Is this a BigDaddy Fluke? Anyone with ideas?

>>Is this a BigDaddy Fluke?
I think so… As in January 4, Matt Cutts guessed the transition length for 1-2 months… It’s time now.

Hello,
I am glad you bought this up.
Yes it is happening. Google has a defect and does not know it yet or knows it and will not admit it.
I see many high quality sites with good content just being wiped out.

Hey Jim,
You look like you were having a great time at SES.
Good for you.
Best regards,

Well, I am another one that is very glad to see that this is being discussed now…. At first, I really thought I had done somethign wrong, but it’s growing rapidly and affecting many people and it doesn’t seem to be related to anything in particular that I can spot..
All different sites, different themes, and ages.

It got mentioned at Threadwatch and DigitalPoint:

What I find interesting is the nonsense URLs - a possible clue to part of what’s going on.

Man that is strange, but some of the examples in DP make me feel a little better.

[...] I know it’s only been 3 days since I last posted on "Tons of sites going “Supplemental Results"- but I should post an update. [...]

Hello. I know there hasn’t been much discussion about the Supplemental Results. I read GoogleGuy’s post and sent an email to the email in his post, but I received a reply stating, “We’re sorry, but this mailbox has been retired and is no longer actively monitored.”
Several weeks ago, I had discovered that my website (www.noahsanimalfigurines.com) has 2,349 supplemental results and one actual result (the home page). I waited to see if the problem had been corrected, but it has not.
Does anyone know where I can get information on fixing this? Of course, I can’t write to Google Support because I only receive generic replies.
Thanks!
Sherry
