Google has yet to confirm the July 11/12 search ranking update that we reported on, but it does seem to have some legs. Meaning, the chatter has 100% spiked up a lot after the weekend and it seems to be related to a core update. But again, Google has not confirmed this update.
In fact, it seems like there was another “tremor” yesterday – where the ranking fluctuations again went a bit insane.
Without Google confirming it, I am going to assume that this was not a massive core update but maybe a small update resulting in some sort of tremor. Maybe this was a small update to the June 2019 core update? Maybe not?
The WebmasterWorld chatter is right now pretty high:
Here are some tweets from Glenn Gabe and some others on this:
This is how John Mueller of Google reacted to this:
That is all we have from Google on this possible update.
Some of the tools showed some fluctuations again yesterday, July 16th, so maybe more tremors? There is additional chatter in the WebmasterWorld forums and the tracking tools are showing signs of an update as well.
The WebmasterWorld Forums has some new chatter in the past 24 hours:
And much more.
Here are the tracking tools:
