Google has confirmed the June 2026 spam update, which was released on Wednesday, June 24th at around noon ET, is now done rolling out. The update finished rolling out on June 26 at 2pm ET.
Here is what Google posted:
- “The rollout was complete as of June 26, 2026”
Why we care. This is the second Google spam update announced in 2026 and this update felt a bit bigger than the March 2026 spam update but like for most updates, if your site was not impacted, then you are good to go – at least for now.
There will always be cases of sites not spamming Google that get hit by a spam update but hopefully that won’t be one of your sites.
Type of spam update. Google originally said:
- “This is a normal spam update, and it will roll out for all languages and locations. The rollout may take a few days to complete.”
