What’s changing in SEO rankings, search traffic and visibility?
Google has launched the June 2025 Core Update, the second such update this year. The rollout is expected to take up to three weeks, bringing major volatility in search rankings and traffic.
Core updates are broad changes to Google’s algorithms that affect how pages are ranked. They aim to better align results with user intent and content quality. The June 2025 update comes just three months after the March 2025 update.
