Spam updates target websites that violate Google’s rules, including:
- Automatically generating content solely to improve search rankings.
- Buying or selling links to manipulate rankings.
- Hosting thin, duplicated, or poor-quality content.
- Deceiving users with hidden redirects or other deceptive techniques.
Google’s previous spam update was released in March.
