Hi everyone,
My website was hit quite badly during the August spam update 2026, and I'm trying to understand what I should do to recover it.
My traffic and search visibility have dropped, but I'm not sure what exactly caused the problem. I have already started checking my content, technical SEO, and indexing, but I'm still confused about where to focus first.
Has anyone experienced something similar after the August update? If you have successfully recovered a website after a major Google update, I would really appreciate some advice on what steps you took and what I should check.
Any practical tips or suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks!
