Google Broad Core Update December 2020

is there anyone in here who was specifically hit by the update in May and then hit again or unaffected by the one in December? I keep hearing that it’s typical to see a “reversal” of traffic in the following update after being hit but I haven’t seen anything on my end.
i was hit in may, and i am recovering now.
 
What did you do in the meantime?
the only thing i did was to switch to cloud hosting, which made the site a little faster. But nothing too much, otherwise everything the same, including the aurotity of the domain is still the same since May D.A 32

The only thing I keep an eye on are the links pointing at me on the web search console, as I often get bombarded with spam links. Certainly competitors trying to make google penalize the site. So I ask Google to remove whenever suspicious links appear
 
There seems to be 2 tails to this update - first was neutral, second was more negative for me
 
I lost my Website keywords ranking in December update. What should I do to get it back?
 
People did something happened today?:confused:

Sites are flooded with bots and traffic in many niches are down. Specially in the hours when they are not supposed to.:suspicious:

Arts, Home decor and to somewhat sports are the niches.:anyway:
 
Yes something strange happened today. Update still rolling?

My clients website got hit badly in May and even worse in Decemeber. I also see that quite a few competitors had same fate. We really changed our game back in the backlinks in may and we have only used high quality niche edits. But it didn't help at all. I don't see any major difference between us and other competitors that are growing right now.

Sorry but what are high quality niche edits?
How often do you see it that real websites add links to articles which are like 2 years old?
Niche edits are tricky.

Yeah, that's hard. We didn't look at the dates of articles, but that shouldn't matter much as articles get be updated (It's common for an article to be updated) What I meant to say is that we were getting links from real websites, not pbns.
 
anyone in here see a huge increase in traffic sometime before or after Christmas?

Me... and Xmas time is the worst time for me. Hope, it stays LOL
Impressions went down as it was expected but CTR shot up.
 
hows it going guys?

in semrush and ahrefs all my sites stopped falling on 31 Dec - as i see that was some kind of update as per Semrush
here are some positive signs.
but impressions on GSC are still the same and traffic is still shit
 
Ahrefs showed heavy losses from Dec 31st but traffic was stable(down 50% from preupdate) until today. Down 35% from yesterdays numbers today.
