Google announced “Hummingbird” on 27th September, 2013. It is the biggest change in Google and is not an update or data-refresh, but entirely a new search algorithm and affected 90% of searches.

If the quality of results is not good, they will go elsewhere; exactly like they moved from Altavista search engine to Google, a dozen years ago. Google probably realizes this and constantly tries to reinvent itself to ensure it retains its market share and the trust of the search users.
