Sudden Ranked Drop? Google Algo Update?

Google did a big cut for affilate websites. Mostly on weight loss etc. Check serp for that phrases :) They cut nearly 100% affilate websites. They didn't check links, text or whatever. They just cut for affialte and nothing more. It is NOT update.
 
Last week I have noticed similar fluctuactions and huge ranaking drops on 2 sites, but all returned to normal in 24-48 hrs. I hope your rankings will recover as mine.
 
small increase in impressions, positions and clicks if anything. but i think its not because of update
 
And also no idea what the fuck is going on with Google? How the hell can they bring so many updates? And then without any explanation and no one knows whats going on. Its such a joke of a company.

Sundar asserting dominance.

Edit: Has Google told everyone using Wordpress to FO? Anyone using a static site see massive change?
 
This update absolutely makes no sense. Some of my sites which are clean as f*ck got hit. Not any shady backlinks built to them, all content HQ & unique... WTF.. And at the other side I've got some boosts to some sites which I did make backlinks to them and tried to manipulate Google's algorithm.

Same thing here. Whitehat site got fucked, blackhat site got a boost. Thanks a lot Google, great job.
 
But I see it's not the first time you get this comment

Please stop trashing the thread with you pointless unrelated nonsense Mr I know everything. I see it's not the first time you are doing it.

This thread is about google update. Not about how good you are.

40 sites, 40 the same niche, 1 of it got hit hard (expired domain) - other remain stable.

So page speed making no difference in this update?
 
My Google Analytics were down by 20% yesterday, which made me nervous. Must have been a glitch because Google corrected it a few hours ago - got a slight increase.

These updates never seem to affect me. Travel niche. And yes, I use WordPress.
 
Seems like a lot of your sites which got a hit was on expired domains?
 
Guys keep posting your niches and if you have quality or spam articles/links.

I had one site hit, which was built on an expired domain. Domain was purchased 2+ years ago and I built the site just this summer. 80% loss on that one.
Crafting niche, pretty clean domain, well researched and optimized articles.
Links I added some forum posts and some niche edits.
I used similar links on other sites and they are doing just fine, so it's not the links I've added.

Health site doing fine even got more featured snippets.
Car site no change, maybe a small increase.
Kitchen electronics site doing fine too.

All 4 sites have clean well researched and optimized articles with nice structure + surfer.

Yes, that's what I'm seeing too.
