Has Google rolled the Search Ranking algorithm update?
Google Search’s ranking algorithm has been updated. This appears to be a standard unconfirmed Google search change, with both SEO community discussion and automatic tracking programmes picking up on the fluctuations. The previous update took was rolled on July 29th, which looked to run until August 1st. Although there may have been two or three upgrades within that time period.
The previous update we reported about was the July 29th upgrade, which looked to run until August 1st. Although there may have been two or three upgrades within that time period. It is uncertain, as are the majority of these unverified updates.
Here is a part of the discussion on the forum:
Page Views per visitor have halved today, it sticks out like a sore thumb on my graph charts!
Is it just my site or did google dialed down on authority this morning? In my niche sites with good authority and strong back links got pushed down…
sales went to #*$! again, correlating with the semrush sensor spike – again. It seems they are messing with the results every other day, extremely frustrating
The updates they are rolling out in the past 48 -72 hours did some damage to my website. Only high volume keywords were targeted, pushed down the serps (-50). There is no way tell if this is temporary or not. Some sites with high authority were also hit, Im not really convinced this is about the web vitals. A google chrome extension that has a high volume keyword in my niche is in the second page, outranking numerous websites. Pinterest and YouTube returned to the top pages.
I doubt this will stick, I would have expected google to show some transparency and confirm what they are rolling out. The ultra-authority websites are unaffected, they continue to dominate any keywords they want.
Something was rolled out over the weekend, it hit all my high volume keywords. Big drop, -50 more or less in ranking. The ‘funny’ thing about this is that it only targeted high volume keywords, all other keywords are pretty much the same.
practically every day semrush sensor is spiking, i don’t think SEO makes and sense currently. Right now this is pure search result manipulation by google
Google’s Glenn Gabbe took to Twitter explaining that there has been extreme volatility on the insights ever since the end of July and early August. Glenn also suggested that there had been some noticeable reversals based on the July core upgrade. Take a look:
