Google's Panda algorithm was created to block websites with poor quality content, helping Google improve the user experience on the world's largest search engine.

But will Google constantly update the next version to improve the quality of search results? Increasingly, updates will be stronger than the previous version.

Panda 4.0 is a major update for algorithms rather than just refreshing data. That is, Google has made changes to Panda to identify sites and has released a new version of algorithms today.
