Google’s Gary Illyes said today that the Panda algorithm, Panda 4.2, that began rolling out around July 18, 2015, is still rolling out.
Illyes said he checked yesterday to make sure, and it was still rolling out.
We expected the Panda 4.2 to roll out very slowly over “several months.” It’s been less than three months since it started rolling out, so I’d expect it to take a few more months to finalize. And Illyes also added that you can expect it to continue to roll out for some time, as Google originally announced.
