The New sitewide algorithm update rolled by Google will be known as the Helpful Content Update. It will strongly assess the content to find the quality and devalue every writeup that is created for search engines.
In the latest announcement, Google has announced the launch of its latest update, known as the helpful content update. This new update will be strongly focused on content. Google is prioritizing content to boost content and cut off all of those content that is primarily written for the purpose of SEO.
After the product review update that has targeted a particular number of pages, the current helpful content update will be sitewide. It again means that the update has the potential to have an impact on all types of pages.
In the helpful content update, it also has come up with a new signal which Google will use for ranking the webpages.
Even when Google has put light on the latest algorithm change a week before, it is definitely not a long time for preparation. However, it is also justified with the point that most pages should primarily be written, keeping in mind humans and not search engines.
Following is some helpful information available about the latest update.
Google has used its Twitter profile to make the announcement,
“Next week, we will launch the “helpful content update” to better ensure people see more original, helpful content written by people, for people, rather than content made primarily for search engine traffic.”
A blog article is also linked with the post to find more information. It includes some necessary details on the way the website can keep succeeding after the new update rolls out.
What will help content updates do?
The update will introduce a new ranking signal that can negatively impact sites that publish a large number of content, but adds little value to the readers. Basically, those are not of any help to searchers.
“Next week, we will launch the “helpful content update” to better ensure people see more original, helpful content written by people, for people, rather than content made primarily for search engine traffic.”
What to do if this can negatively impact my performance?
If there is unhelpful content on your website, it is advisable to get rid of them from the website and focus on creating new and helpful ones. However, the effect of this new impact can last several months.
Google added:
“Our classifier for this update runs continuously, allowing it to monitor newly-launched sites and existing ones. As it determines that the unhelpful content has not returned in the long-term, the classification will no longer apply.”
Some Helpful Tips:
