Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web.

Google confirmed it is updating the design of the local pack and map box in the search results which might lead to more traffic to local businesses. Check out my weekly SEO video recap, I go deeper into the important changes that happened this week. Alexa.com, the website measurement ranking service that SEOs obsessed about in the early 2000s is shutting down after 25 years. Microsoft Advertising launched four new Bing ads attributes you might want to use. Google's John Mueller said topics and categories in the URL slug doesn't matter for SEO. Google has a new SafeSearch notice and it can take a month or so for a site to have the SafeSearch classifier removed. Have a good, safe and relaxing weekend all!
