Google's first core update of 2026 was released, it is focused on Google Discover and will take up to 2 weeks to roll out in the US/English only for now - seems to focus on local, clickbait and original/timely content https://www.seroundtable.com/google-february-2026-discover-core-update-40887.html

The display of favicons in the Google Search results are unrelated to core updates https://www.seroundtable.com/google-core-updates-favicons-40767.html via @johnmu

Google's @johnmu said pre-announcing quality updates, like core updates, isn't possible (in 2019 @dannysullivan said they will try to preannounce them, they never really did) https://www.seroundtable.com/google-pre-announcing-core-updates-40595.html thanks @MordyOberstein

Google does smaller core updates without announcing them, @dannysullivan told us this in 2019, but Google just added it to its search documentation https://www.seroundtable.com/google-smaller-core-updates-unannounced-40579.html

Looks like we won't be having more core updates, more often, as Google told us in December 2024 https://www.seroundtable.com/google-more-core-updates-more-often-unlikely-40293.html
