When I read about Google’s Medic update on Yoast blog I tried to search the Internet to know more about it. But Google took me back Yoast only.

According to Yoast, though it is called Medic update, it is not just for the medical sites.

Joost de Valk says, “In the week of August 1st Google rolled out a “broad core algorithm update.” We know it was that because they said so on Twitter. There was quite a bit of buzz around this update. Some sites “won”, others “lost”, which is logical because, in the end, this is pretty much a zero-sum game. We’ve been trying to make sense of what happened; this post explains what we know.

Why is it called the Medic update?

It’s called the Medic update because Barry Schwartz, one of the most prolific writers in the search industry, called it that. It doesn’t mean this update only affected medical sites”.
