Google's John Mueller explains why the search engine conducts periodic spam updates rather than solving spam once with existing algorithms.
Search Engine Journal reports on John Mueller's explanation for why Google relies on regular spam updates instead of permanently eliminating spam through its current algorithmic systems. Mueller notes that different types of spam require different detection methods—including SpamBrain (Google's AI system), quality factors, and link algorithms—and that the evolving nature of spam necessitates ongoing updates rather than a single permanent fix.
