Over the weekend, the Tremendous Bowl LIX weekend, there was numerous chatter about rating volatility and visitors losses. Reality is, I really feel there may be usually chatter about visitors losses over a Tremendous Bowl weekend, as many are watching the Tremendous Bowl and never spending time looking Google as a lot.
So was there an unconfirmed Google search ranking update that rolled out over this previous weekend? That’s laborious to say.
However here’s what we’re seeing.
And as a reminder, beforehand we reported rating volatility on February 4th and 5th and Jan 29th and 30th after which over the previous weekend, previous to that Janaury 20th and that is all when some tools hade tracking difficulties.
The brand new modifications began round Saturday, February eighth and continued by way of right now, February tenth.
