The majority of 2016 Google updates were aimed at improving user experience, providing more accurate results and eliminating spam. Thousands of tests are run by Google at any given time, but few results satisfy enough to be rolled out as updates.

The first update remains unconfirmed by Google, but there was much volatility in rankings. SEO chatter indicated that the update could be a part of Panda integration, but Google has denied this. The update was also not linked to the Penguin update.
