November 2019 Google Algorithm Update Finding(Targeted "Best" & "Reviews" Domain)

I have seen lots of websites got hit in this November Google Whose domain have "Best" & "reviews" word.
I am giving here a few examples:
1) reviews.com
2) toptenreviews.com
3) bestreviews.com

I track a lot of keywords on various niches.
Thus, I have seen huge amounts of small sites that got hit this 2019's November 7th to 11th Google algorithm update which domain have those two words.

I don't want to give exposure to those small sites here. But, search your niche related keywords.
You will find most of the domain which has "best" or "review" word in their domain got hit. Lots of domain failing rapidly, and few failing slowly.

Most of those domains got hit If Google fails to recognize those domains as a brand.

Let me know if you find something like that.

I noticed a lot of rich snippets features of my sites have gone.

Don't share the sentiment it is aimed at the "best" or "reviews" websites because a lot of sites that replaced the top 3 seem to still be that type of sites.
Seeing huge drops, but nothing really popping out on why...

Interesting I’ll have to see few sites to see what exactly happened thanks for the head up

I have some of these type of sites and none of those got hit. Also competitors seems to do fine.

I have a site that has Best in the URL that is also in the name of the company. I feel like it was hit hard today.

It wrote about it earlier here, looking for advice.

I look after a site with "reviews" in URL. It was 40% down after 8th November. Any more insight on this?

Mine got hit badly too. Anyone any idea on how you guys recover in case you have been hit by any previous update?

Our organic traffic is also dropped by 50% overnight

As far as I can see all sites with the word "reviews" in the domain name who also have affiliate links have been hit in November and/or January. Would be gratful to tyalk to anyone else who has also seen this.

We do not have a review word in the domain but we do have few affiliate links. We got hit in november update and around 50-60% traffic vanished
