Has anyone seen ranking recovery after the recent Google core update?

My site dropped suddenly even with clean backlinks and quality content. What worked for you content refresh, link pruning, or just waiting it out?

I would say to be patient and work on the things you can control, like updating your content, looking for technical problems, and keeping a close eye on your backlinks. Sometimes little changes that happen over time are more helpful than immediate cures.

What worked best for me. Content refresh first. Tighten intent, update titles and intros, expand weak sections, remove fluff. Small but clear changes help Google retest pages.
