High Rankings Forum
"So the day has finally come when Google wants to start using the massive amounts of data they have via Google Analytics. It's nice they're at least giving everyone a heads up and a choice in the matter, but it does leave one to wonder if they're going to start using Google Analytics data as part of the SERP algorithm."
