Today we released the December 2024 spam update. It may take up to 1 week to complete, and we'll post on the Google Search Status Dashboard when the rollout is done: status.search.google.com/incidents/UUq2…
The rollout was complete as of December 26, 2024.
@googlesearchc Spam = Small independent publishers with original content and expertise
@googlesearchc Right on time guys. Thanks for making it easier to diagnose the issues for folks. 🫡

@googlesearchc TIME TO DESTROY THE REST OF BLOGS
@googlesearchc Don't worry, Google. Nobody posts spam articles to their websites anymore. It's far more effective for spammers to post spam directly to Reddit now.
@googlesearchc Please only share uplifting and supportive comments. Anyone posting anything negative will receive a 2nd manual penalty and will have their last 2 monthly clicks taken away. Be nice guys, it’s the holidays ❤️
@googlesearchc Maybe Google should work on the definition of spam? It doesn't understand helpful content either
@googlesearchc Just call it what it is: The Gift More Traffic to Reddit Update #94
@googlesearchc You mean unedited AI content as in AI Overviews???? Or Content made for ads as in nothing but ads above the fold????
@googlesearchc Put the status updates in GSC and the API. Thanks, The SEO Community.
@googlesearchc Please reward hard workers this time around. Many of us have been working hard for over 10 years only to be outranked by copycats. I really hope you finally penalize copycats, plagiarizers, and travel blogs that use stock photography (thereby proving no first hand experience).
@googlesearchc Ok so we will see more and more spam results
@googlesearchc When does the 2023 HCU get reversed?
@googlesearchc Please guys, make sure to remove the remaining 2 visits per day; otherwise, I will be disappointed.
@googlesearchc Are your search results not bad enough for you, or what is the point of this update madness?
@googlesearchc Yesterday you finished rolling out an update and today you started a new update? You guys should shut your business. Nobody cares about your updates anymore.
@googlesearchc All the updates during black friday and xmas. The only period per year websites earn more. It looks like google is trying to kill smaller websites, in favor of big media and reddit...
@googlesearchc Bro! Give us time to breathe.
@googlesearchc Google's future looking a bit... Reddit-ish?
@googlesearchc Squeeze the remaining traffic for Reddit updates!
@googlesearchc I created a blog two months ago, hoping it would help me restart and eventually solve my financial problems after my main site was completely deindexed. But this morning, It was also removed. It only had 24 pages, all written manually. I’m feeling lost and don’t know what to do.
@googlesearchc Hyperlink to “guidelines” is a 404 page!
@googlesearchc Spam update? You mean the Dec core update that has helped actual AI bullshit to rank top on SERPs?
@googlesearchc Yo, Calm down
@googlesearchc Great you release core updates every day till then bing is good and I am happy with bing no updates nothing only good results
@googlesearchc Curious why small publishers aren't banding together to go on offense against Google with these clearly abusive practices? If anyone is aware of a group please let me know, happy to join in the fight.
@googlesearchc Another update...? Wow! Just as one was about heaving a sigh from the last update. Damn. This is not funny at all.
