Table Of Content
The March 2024 Spam Update has taken the SEO community by storm. Website owners are tense. Amidst this situation, they are raising their doubts about X.
Recently, We Have Seen A Question That Looks Similar To This:
“@searchliaison Hey @dannysullivan we’ve lost many of our long-standing rankings to this March Core Update (I’m assuming), and we’re not seeing them bounce back. Can you suggest a resource for non-wordpress SEO site auditing? We’re passing Search Console just fine.”
The above question is the voice of the entire SEO community. If we break it down, we will get the following:
- Severe traffic drop led the webmaster to worry.
- Wondering about the next few steps.
So, are you curious to know the reply from Google?
Search Liaison Danny Sullivan Replied:
“I would let the update complete before deciding if there are any fundamental changes you might want to make. There might not be any to do at all.”

What Does The Search Liasion Mean Through His Response?
Okay, now let’s simplify the conversation.
Firstly, patience is a virtue. Keep your website the same – Google Search Liaison instructed the SEO community to wait until the update ends and not to make any fundamental changes.
Secondly, If your content shows in any search snippets – it’s a green signal. Because it indicates that Google likes your content and that the change might be temporary. So, hold your horses and wait for the update to finish.
Thirdly, check whether you were ranking for seasonal topics earlier. If yes, it can be a reason for your traffic drop.
Finally, refrain from making any changes regarding content and technical SEO – wait until the update is completed.
