Yesterday we reported that the Google May 2020 core update is rolling out and we already felt that this Google search algorithm update may be a big one. Well, based on just about 30 or so hours, I am seeing tons of site owners complaining about huge ranking drops in the past 24 hours or so.
Again, this started to roll out on May 4th at around 3:50pm ET and Google said it can take up to two weeks to fully roll out. But site owners, publishers, webmasters, SEOs, etc are already seeing the magnitude of this update on their specific sites or client sites.
