A new algorithm update has been released by Google during the past week, which has created a havoc in the world of SEO. Google has named it “Fred” unofficially as a joke. The new algorithm has affected a lot of websites and has caused a drastic drop in their ranking.
With such changes Fred is observed to be a link Quality algorithm update that evaluates a website on the basis of other websites that are pointing back to it. The fact that matters is not the number of backlinks but the quality of sites that reflects your link. In nutshell, it works on quality rather than quantity.
My website <removed by mod> had a very good ranking earlier and as the new algorithm was released the ranking dropped all of a sudden. I have tried all possible remedies to raise the ranking, but my efforts have gone in vain. It is quiet difficult to figure out that-Is it the effect of the new Fred Update?
If yes, kindly suggest any tool or other measures that can help me check that my website has been affected by the new Fred Update and how can I resolve the issue.
