Just as most Publishers, creators, and bloggers are yet to survive Google helpful content's update that took place months ago, here is another update from Google refer as ''October Spam updates 2022''.


This Google October spam update is Global and it goes across all websites and affects all languages across the web, and Google call refers to it as ''Google Search spam updates and your site''

So quite some webmasters, SEO agencies, website owners, bloggers, and contents creators are complaining about the Google ''Spam Update'' which started on October 19, 2022, lasted for about 48 hours, and ended on October 21, 2022

Google usually releases updates to its spam algorithm that go against websites or apps that did not compare with either spam policies or Google policies in general

For example, before this year's Google spam update, the most recent spam update was last year's November 2021 spam update, also few spams updates Google released in the same year, one on June 23 that lasted until June 28, 2021, and another spam update by July 2022 focusing on Link spam update

Though this October spam update has sent shockwaves through the SEO community around the world, as many well-known and respected sites have been impacted by the changes.


The reality is about the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Google updates, some sites will lose traffic, and MORE Sites will gain traffic, there is no doubt that Google updates have seen explosive growth in the past few months, as Google continues to enhance and make their services better for humans. Every day it seems there are more and more people using Google's search directory and Google wants the search results to be more helpful to all, which is a good thing!

If Google October Spam Update 2022 Hit Your Site

If you've been hit by Google's October spam update, you're not alone, so relax for there are tens, hundred, thousand, or even millions of people like you, whose sites got hit and lost tons of traffic at the moment

The update, which was rolled out from October 19th to 21st has caused major ranking changes for many websites. In this article, we'll take a look at what the update is all about and how you can recover from it should your website be affected


Important Things You Need To Know About Google Updates

1: You need to know more about what Google refers to as Spam Updates. below was an abstract from the google website on what they refer to as the October Google spam update

''While Google's automated systems to detect search spam are constantly operating, we occasionally make notable improvements to how they work. When we do, we refer to this as a spam update and share when they happen on our list of Google Search ranking updates''

For example, SpamBrain is our AI-based spam-prevention system. From time to time, we improve that system to make it better at spotting spam and to help ensure it catches new types of spam.

''Sites that see a change after a spam update should review our spam policies to ensure they are complying with those. Sites that violate our policies may rank lower in results or not appear in results at all. Making changes may help a site improve if our automated systems learn over months that the site complies with our spam policies.''


2: You also need to know what Google is saying about ''Spam policies for Google web search: Google's spam policies are designed to keep web search results clean and useful to users all over the world. Google wants you to abide by their police as by abiding by these policies, Google can maintain a good working relationship with your platform.

These policies are important to all webmasters if you don't want your website SEOs to be off-guard, the update, which Google has named the "October Spam Update," appears to be focused on penalizing sites that are engaged in aggressive link building and spammy link acquisition practices.


Google Don't Want You To Use AI, But Your Brains

Well the truth is that article writing, and rewriting tools have been for decades now, before the coming of AI tools, which most people are using to generate tons of content and spam the web

Google is asking you not to stop using such tools, but rather they are asking you to use such tools plus your brains, let's say '' Google is asking you to use AI and brains'' if you want to use AI., not just allowing AI to spoon foot all your contents which Google is totally against

Some people so far have lost almost 70%, 80% of traffic, and more is still taking place, should you fall among those who have lost traffic. My ask to you is to please relax and watch how the next few days or week unfolds


It Will Interest You To Know That, This October Spam Update Also Applied On Youtube Now


What You Should Do

By all means, necessary try to know Google policies, and abide by them, and more importantly. Please try not to rely only on Google for all your traffic.

Try to keep Google at 20 to 50% of your traffic at almost, you can use leads, such as Email Marketing, by building email lists, Mobile Marketing by using Whatsapp marketing and Telegram list marketing

Try also using Paid Ads, like Google Adword, PPC, Forum Marketing, Listing your Digital Products, Non-Digital Products, and Services on the Marketplace, also try using Social media

Then using Google's sister portal Youtube, Quora, World Forum Live, WorldSocio social media platform, Classified ads from other websites, and so on, just by all mean try not to depend totally on Google SEO traffics

Avoid depending totally on Google, is dangerous to do so with all these updates Google is rolling out here and there, which results are unpredictable, also December 2022 core updates are coming. expert more from Google


While traffic and result from SEO remain incomparable

Yes, SEO traffic has no comparison, is the best. I am making a profit and doing good from SEO search results, as well as tens, of hundreds to thousands of people out there making cool profits from Google SEO search ranking

Yes, nothing to compare to SEO, like nothing is even close. I am talking about profit margin, sustainability, and ease of mind. Even though you can make more in scale faster with PPC, Social media ads, is important you try not to depend 100% on Google SEO


Lastly: My best wishes to all who lost their rankings, just relax, fix something that needs to be fixed, tries to abide by Google policies, and most importantly spam policy

Understand what Google is saying, and fix what needs to be fixed on your website, relax and watch how this too shall pass, common we have seen some updates more dangerous than this, last year November 2021 update was something ex and who knows how next month updates roll out will look like, in all, Try to relax

I really believe that 9 x out of 10, Google wants to post information about our personal lives, however they don't ask for our permission whatsoever. This leads to a lot of controversy and really puts the "users" at risk or harms way.
