Google releases October 2022 spam update

Google is preparing a new search ranking algorithm to target the different spammy sides of some search results. The company calls this new update the “October 2022 spam update.” It can take approximately a week to fully carry out and also be noticed in all search results.

Google noticed that the update is considered global and also affects all languages in the world.

What are spam updates? Google wrote

“While Google’s automated systems for detecting all search spam are continually operating, we can occasionally carry out some notable improvements, and enhancements to work with it. When we do, we refer to this update as a new update. So we share what is happening on the list of Google Search ranking updates.

For example, SpamBrain is considered an AI – based spam – prevention system. Recently, we have improved the system to make it better and more flexible at choosing spam and also to help ensure it can catch new types of spam. Many sites can see a dramatic change after spam updates. The update has to review all spam policies to make sure they can comply with all of them. Sites can violate all policies, can rank at a lower level in results or don’t appear in full results. Making different changes can help a site improve if all automated systems can learn over a period of months that a site can comply with its spam policies”.

So the announcement, Google wrote this on Twitter saying that “Today, we could release the October 2022 spam update”.

In previous updates, the most confirmed Google spam update was published in the November 2021 spam update. Google releases it in two parts on June 23 and June 28 in 2021.

Why we care. If you reach to note all large ranking or traffic changes from the organic Google search results, you can be hit by a spam update. It targets specific guidelines for discrimination. Google doesn’t say if this is links, content or forms of spam, instead of spam-related in general.
