Websites that were forcing Seo methods or using bad linking structure such as 'bad neighbourhood' links or spamming were dropped from results.

The Google Panda update has changed the process of ranking a website for positioning in result pages. The process was created with artificial intelligence and a more sophisticated and scalable way than previously ever used.
New concepts were, Design, Trust worthiness, Speed or load times and return probability.

Following the Google Panda update another roll-out called Google Penguin started on 24th April 2012 affecting 3.1% of all English language search queries.
