Google announces product reviews algorithm update

[theduke60]

Hey guys - has anyone been able to figure out some ways to improve a page/website's ranking after this update? They go on about quality but I'm talking about specific steps you can take (such as diversifying the content from only "Best" and "Top" by adding a few more informative posts all around in the website). Thanks in advance for any input.

I would like to go on record to report lots of my rankings have bounced back. I want to announce this so I can can come and complain that they have tanked again when the next update happens next month

This is good news. Sick and tired of affiliates rewriting Amazon descriptions.

Maybe this is the reason why my single product review articles are indexing and ranking on the second page right 24 hours after I publish them on my 2.5 months old website.

Is 2nd page generating decent traffic?

Nope, but getting clicks at least. Articles on my previous site that got demolished by the Dec 2020 update used to rank on the 5-10th pages after like 2-3 months and required backlinks to crawl upper than that.

Is this a YMYL niche by any chance?

Lol no. It is electronics.

I've noticed really bad results in technical queries. Not electronics, but other stuff which involves model numbers. It's returning nearly random stuff at the top of the SERPS. Been having to use several filters. Kinda like in the old days of altavista.
