Since entering 2022, Google has made several algorithm updates to improve performance and benefit users. However, it has also become more challenging for marketers and brands to work effectively.

Most recently, Google announced the launch of the “Helpful Content” algorithm update, aimed at encouraging content to be more beneficial to readers. Importantly, this update will directly impact website rankings. However, Google plans to roll out this algorithm next week. Therefore, this article summarizes various details to help marketers and brands prepare for the upcoming update. If you’re ready, let’s dive into the details.

Google Announces “Helpful Content” Algorithm Update

Google tweeted an announcement of the algorithm update on August 18th, specifying the content that will affect website rankings. The goal is to require marketers to improve their content to be more beneficial to readers, rather than just creating content focused on driving traffic to the website.

How Will This Update Affect Things?

Certainly, this algorithm update will directly affect all websites, especially those involved in online marketing, such as SEO, which aims to rank websites high on SERPs. This update may result in Google reducing the visibility of content deemed low quality or unable to benefit readers, leading to a significant drop in website rankings.
