Google makes small algorithm changes (or, as they are also called, Google updates<\/strong>) practically every day, as the company’s specialists admit. A few times a year, however, major changes are implemented. Whether announced or not, changes in SERPs (search engine results pages) betray them to the general public.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\"What<\/p>\n

After experiencing changes in traffic and rankings, many sites could hardly take a second hit in a short period. From the data known at the moment, the volatility of the positions is higher compared to the previous changes.<\/p>\n

Google does not give detailed explanations regarding the changes made in the ranking algorithm. At the same time, the information from the first source (the official announcements) does not indicate a certain type of site that will be influenced, hence the conclusion that the rules in this update will apply to all domains.<\/p>\n

Does this mean you can relax, as competitors will also be subject to the same changes? Not. Each site ranks as a result of a combination of factors, and each SEO expert emphasizes different aspects of SEO optimization<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What if you bet on the wrong aspects and a Google update happened?<\/h3>\n

After the August 2018 and March 2019 updates, it wasn’t until much later that information appeared that backlink quality mattered. Those with good domain authority and natural, quality links recovered from the drastic changes, but so were sites with other priorities in their SEO strategy<\/a><\/span>\u2026<\/p>\n

Many of the major algorithm changes implemented by Google are widely known \u2013 Penguin, Panda, Pigeon, etc. Most emerged due to clear factors and struggled with concrete aspects of the online environment of that time.<\/p>\n
