Latest Google Algorithm Updates - Liainfraservices
2020 has been an active year for Google’s algorithm. There have already been two core updates including one in January,
May and June.
There is no official statement from Google about the update. Google rarely provides information about their algorithm.
Large ranking changes were first reported on August 15th by webmasters and keyword trackers like the SEMRush Sensor.
Many wondered if this was another indexing issue like the one that occurred less than a week before on August 10th.
This glitch in Google algorithm has largely disrupted ranking for many sites.
What sites were majorly impacted?
Webmasters and rank trackers reported both ranking increases and decreases for several different types of sites.
The categories of sites that experienced the largest ranking deviations include:
Jobs & Education
Autos & Vehicles
Pets & Animals
Law & Government
Health
Massive changes in Snippets:
Increase in search results that include featured snippets. The number of search results containing featured snippets
has been on the rise over the years. This is the outcome of Google’s constant effort to make information more
accessible to searchers.Since featured snippets provide direct answers to queries,
they can also serve as responses to voice searches.

The snippet is a single search result in a set of search results and generally consists of a title, a URL and a description of the page.
