As many of you know, many are waiting patiently on Google's next Penguin release. We know it is still not ready for prime time and we hope that when it is, it will be the real time version.

But if it is not ready, Google will not release it, even by the end of the year, within the 2015 year.

Gary Illyes from Google posted on Twitter that although he doesn't "know the exact timeline," Google will "not release something unfinished."

Here is the tweet:

I still do expect it by the end of this year, probably right around the holidays but as long as it is not during the mad rush of Cyber Monday and Black Friday, that should be okay. Although, Google has said they try not to release major algorithms during the holidays.
