    Default Fred Update

    Hi,

    I recently lost rankings on quite a lot of keywords.
    I suspect it is related to the Fred update.
    Has someone had the same experience?
    Could someone enlighten me about when this update took place and what it is about?

    Thanks

    Google have not confirmed "Fred" but plenty of people reporting fluctuations. These websites are using black hat techniques or using very low quality content to click bait.

    Google is tackling fake news and click bait articles as they are very low quality. As always content is king.

    If anything I am seeing generally positive results from Fred as weak content sites above me are getting wiped.

    "Google is tackling fake news"

    Indeed, Google is tackling / censoring so called fake news, but only conservative real news.
    George Soros obviously is behind Google's CrossCheck.
    Right now here in Europe Google's Censor Department is active for the French election.

    This "SEO" will be also seen on the German election this year.
    And Facebook is also on board.
    Never saw so much censorship requests to Facebook from German government since World War II.

    The Reich returns.

    Agreed, there's been something major going on since Tuesday. Glad someone else noticed though, it's strange when you think you're the only one...

    I don't think our content is poor quality or shallow, but we've also seen some drop offs lately. Normally when a sizeable update rolls through we gain traffic. This is disappointing

    Though we had some kind of redirect hack as well, so it's hard to tell what is truly the cause.

    Was the traffic you lost mobile, desktop or both?

    Thanks for letting me know about this. I didn't know about the "Fred" update. I understand in removing low quality sites, but I don't like the idea of having Google censor political news. Real or Fake. If they control what we are exposed to, then they will have influence on what we see, and eventually what we believe. I think that instead of censoring Google results for political reasons. (fake or not). The New Yorker and the Huffington post both have sections that are called "Not News".. with stories almost believable. Why don't they tackle them directly? Seems scary.

    Wrong! Please dont copy paste from others if u are not 100% sure ,what u share.

    I take some time to check the story behind fred:

    -Over optimization
    -Keyword density
    -Double H1
    -many intern Links

    All this global players on the seo market post ****,and 200 another pages copy the news

    Regards!

    SERPS have settled down over the past week after a crazy spell earlier in May.

    Wasn't double H1 always a no no anyway?
