This score is then used as a ranking factor. Initially, the effects of Panda were mild, but in January 2016 it was permanently incorporated into Google’s core algorithm. 2) Penguin : Algorithm On September 23, 2016 Google announced that Google Penguin Algorithm How it works: Google Penguin’s objective is to down-rank sites whose backlinks look unnatural.

It’s our job to figure out what you’re searching for and surface helpful information from the web, no matter how you spell or combine the words in your query Example : By red Leather shoes on Amazon under 3000 So the Bert Algorithm role was to Encode ( understand the meaning ) the user long search queries & give them exact result what they are looking for.Understanding searches better than ever before.
