Future Panda Updates are integrated in Everflux

Since March 2013, iterations of the Google Panda Update will not be identified as such anymore. Instead of deploying bigger or smaller updates, Google has now baked Panda into their regular algorithm-changes and index-updates.

You are more likely in the future to see Panda deployed gradually as we rebuild the index. So you are less likely to see these large scale sorts of changes.

Data-refreshes of the Panda filter on a monthly basis

The update of the data basis (called data-refresh) for the Panda filter takes place roughly once a month and is deployed worldwide over a time span of 10 days. This slow deployment of new data over a 10-day-cycle lowers how noticeable the effect of the Google Panda Update is on the SERPs (Search Engine Result Pages). Therefore, it has become far more difficult to make out when a new iteration of the Panda Update was released.

So, rather than having some huge change that happens on a given day, you’re more likely in the future to see Panda deployed gradually as we’re rebuilding the index, and so you are less likely to see these large scale sorts of changes.
