Hello friends,

Please tell me, Is Penguin 4.0 Fully Rolled Out?

Google told us it is really never done rolling out because it is real-time, meaning, the signals are constantly being updated. As Google crawls and recrawls and indexes and reindexes the URLs across the web, Penguin scores are being pushed in real time. Thus, it is never ever really fully rolled out.
But many are asking, if the first iteration fully rolled out? Is this new real-time version fully rolled out?

Penguin 4.0 is a significant update to Google's Penguin algorithm, which was first introduced in 2012. This update was designed to target websites that use manipulative link building techniques or engage in other forms of spammy behavior. Penguin 4.0 was fully rolled out on September 23, 2016.

One of the key changes with Penguin 4.0 is its real-time nature. Prior to this update, websites affected by Penguin had to wait for periodic refreshes of the algorithm to see any changes in their rankings. With the real-time aspect of Penguin 4.0, any penalties or improvements to a website's rankings can be seen much more quickly.

Another important change is Penguin 4.0's granular approach to penalties. Instead of penalizing an entire website, this update allows Google to penalize specific pages or sections of a website. This means that if certain parts of a website engage in spammy behavior, they can be targeted individually while the rest of the site remains unaffected.

Overall, Penguin 4.0 aims to reward websites that follow Google's quality guidelines and provide a better user experience, while penalizing those that try to manipulate search rankings through spammy practices.

Penguin 4.0 is the real time update for Google. With this change, Penguin's data is refreshed in real time, so changes will be visible much faster, typically taking effect shortly after we recrawl and reindex a page. It also means we're not going to comment on future refreshes.

Google Penguin 4.0 is an official part of Google core algorithm and running in real time. The website which has low quality and spam backlinks will get hit by this update.
