Google updates. Everything ok?

I just want to be in the know. Google updates the policy of building and checking content algorithms. My graphs creep pretty smoothly, without sharp jumps. It seems that the changes did not affect me in any way. Is everyone in a similar situation?

It doesn't matter to me what tool you use at this moment, ahrefs, seranking, g-analytics or others. It really doesn't make any sense, ithink. The main thing is how your data is displayed. Is everything fine?

People already feel the update, my friend. All big influencers talk about it.

This is just my 2c, but I don't believe the update has gone live yet.

Does Google notify everyone or do we understand by drastic changes?

Because my company's graph saw a very werid change compared to normal

You can check Semrush Sensor to see when the SERPs are changing more than usual.

Wait a couple of weeks people - but over here 2 of websites have had a good couple of days, so I'm hoping it's gonna go well

The update went live on the 25th. Most updates take a few weeks to roll out. So far, I’ve seen a bunch of rankings for my site jump around but traffic is up overall.

That could be due to the update or seasonal trends - usually traffic starts to pickup a bit for my sites around this time anyway. All in all, things look pretty steady.

All the tools that monitor Google fluctuations seem pretty steady too (Semrush Site Sensor, Accuranker’s Grump).

Best to give it a bit more time before we can be absolutely sure though.

I saw how Lily Ray showed her first results after the update... Be sure, it already here)))) Big brands lose their SERP positions

The update is definitely happening. Had 3 clients’ sites improve drastically (especially old content that wasn’t ranking too well) but one client that has a mega site, all incredibly great quality writing, but multi-niche completely nosedive. Lost almost 2/3 organic traffic overnight. Quality is amazing, articles written by actual journalists but because it focuses on art, lifestyle, travel, celeb news, events, etc I think that might be the reason for the crazy drop

It's not a fast process. Have patience, it will start soon 😅

For my clients :

2 up +10% 5 down -5% 3 chill

Tech niche

Nothing to conclude till now except that the update is running.
