Helpful Content Update

2022 – ongoing · Major impact

Targets content written primarily for search engines rather than people. Penalises thin, AI-generated-without-review, or topically unfocused content that doesn't satisfy user intent. If your traffic dropped post-August 2022, this is a primary suspect.

Content Quality

🏗️

Core Algorithm Update

Multiple per year · Broad impact

Broad changes to Google's core ranking systems that can affect any site. Typically rewards high-quality, authoritative content and may demote pages that don't demonstrate genuine expertise, experience, authority, and trustworthiness (E-E-A-T).

E-E-A-T · Authority

🤖

SpamBrain

2021 · AI-powered

Google's AI-based spam detection system that identifies and neutralises link spam, hacked content, auto-generated spam, doorway pages, and other manipulative practices at scale. Far more sophisticated than earlier manual spam filters.

Spam Detection

⚡

Page Experience / Core Web Vitals

2021 · Confirmed ranking signal

Measures real-world user experience through Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Interaction to Next Paint (INP), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). Sites failing Google's thresholds may lose rankings to competitors with better technical performance.

Technical Performance

⭐

Product Reviews Update

2021 – 2023 · Multiple rollouts

Rewards in-depth product review content that demonstrates first-hand expertise — original photos, pros/cons, real testing data. Penalises thin affiliate review pages that aggregate manufacturer specs without adding genuine insight.

Review Quality

🧠

BERT / MUM (Semantic Understanding)

2019 / 2021 · Always-on

Google's natural language AI models that understand nuance, context, and query intent beyond simple keyword matching. Content must satisfy the deeper meaning behind a search query, not just match its surface-level keywords.
