Google’s June 3rd Broad Core Algorithm Update
Google Broad Core Algorithm Update June 2019
Google announced another Broad Core Algorithm Update on June 3rd 2019.
What is a Broad Core Algorithm Update?
Every day, there are small changes being made by Google to their core algorithm. This is often done more than once a day. These are called ‘daily’ core updates and are minor. In 2018 Google released over 600 such updates.
In March this year, we saw Google’s Broad Core Algorithm Update and Google have recently announced that there was another major ‘broad’ core update on the 3rd June 2019.
Unlike daily core updates, Broad Core Algorithm Updates are major and have a much wider impact on how websites are displayed in Google’s search results. These updates can be a tense time for webmasters and SEO specialists due to Google being the only ones who know what changes are being made and what they mean.
Why Have Broad Core Updates?
Google tries to display the most relevant websites at the top of their search results pages as it is convenient for their users as they don’t have to scroll through page after page to find what they’re looking for. Most users would be put off by this as people are short on time. To do this, every now and again they make major changes to their algorithm and that totally rearranges the order that sites are displayed in their search results.
What Affect Will The Update Have?
Put simply, some websites will rise in Google’s search results whilst others will fall. Until we know what Google has included in the latest update we won’t know how to react to the changes. The whole point of Google’s core updates is to present what is best for the user and that includes re-arranging their search engine results pages to display what Google thinks are the most relevant results, not what a website owner or webmaster thinks are the most relevant.
We will monitor the effects of this latest broad core update and pass on any information as soon as we have assessed its impact.
