Google adds 12 new types of manual action penalties:-

Google News and Google Discover policy violations can now result in manual penalties.

Google is offering 12 new types of manual action penalties that involve violations of Google News and Google Discover policies.

This is the first time that a website can potentially receive a manual penalty for violating news and discovery policies. Previously, manual actions were limited to Google search violations.

A manual sanction, unlike an automated sanction, is issued by a human reviewer at Google.

The penalty is applied after the reviewer determines that the site does not meet Google guidelines.

Traditionally, a manual penalty results in lower ranking pages or sites in Google search. 

It is not known what the repercussions will be in the event of a manual sanction for breaking the rules of Google News and Google Discover.

Manual actions are the most serious of all Google sanctions and take serious effort to recover.

The only manual sanction specific to Google News concerns the violation of the transparency policy.

A site may be considered in violation of this policy if it appears in Google News and does not provide clear dates and signatures, as well as information about the authors, publication, publisher, company or network behind it. , and contact details.

Google Discover penalties.

There are two manual penalties specific to Google Discover.

They include:

Adult-Themed Content: Google has detected content that contains nudity, sexual acts, sexual activity, or sexually explicit content.

Misleading Content: Google has detected content that appears to be misleading users by promising a topic or story that is not reflected in the content.

There are nine manual penalties for non-compliance with the rules shared between Google News and Google Discover.

They include:

Dangerous content: Google has detected content that could cause serious and immediate harm to people or animals.

Recovering a manual action penalty:

Recovery after manual action is possible, but it takes work. When Google issues manual penalties, it sends a message to the site owner through Search Console.
