Google Releases Panda 4.2 Update : Slowly Rolling Out After Waiting Almost 10 Months

Google tells Search Engine Land that it pushed out a Google Panda refresh last weekend after being without a Google Panda refresh for about 10 months. Google said this affected about 2%–3% of English language queries, so it was relatively small.

The last Panda shift we saw, unofficially was in October 2014. Panda 4.1 happened on September 25, 2014.

Many of you may not have noticed because this rollout is happening incredibly slowly. In fact, Google says the update can take months to fully roll out. That means that although the Panda algorithm is still site-wide, some of your Web pages might not see a change immediately.

The rollout means anyone who was penalized by Panda in the last update has a chance to emerge if they made the right changes. So if you were hit by Panda, you unfortunately won’t notice the full impact immediately but you should see changes in your organic rankings gradually over time.

This is not how many of the past Panda updates rolled out, where typically you’d see a significant increase or decline in your Google traffic more quickly.   

To be on a safer side you can hire an affordable SEO services company to take care of your website so that your website stays safe from such Google updates.
