Does anyone know of a Google update in the past few days?

Have seen a fairly substantial drop in Google search console, I'm still looking into it comparing things, but does anyone know if there's been a Google updates within the past few days?  Or has anyone else noticed anything?

Thanks

Google have said that they will announce big updates, but for the most part, they update about twice a day so there is always something happening.

It does look like something has been going on recently through - but nothing confirmed.

Cheers,

Andy

Was going to go say check this post out on SeoRoundTable but Alick3000 beat me to it.

Nothing is showing up on Algaroo as the minute, and i've notice the moscast metric has been pretty high for a while now, unsure if it needs recalibrating etc

Didn't actually mean to close this off yet, but hopefully people continue to comment.

Appreciate the input so far, I'm continuing to look into it from the stats that I have my end and can't type to any think that we have done.
We're pretty clean on SEO, we don't go in for buying links or any think of that sort.

Negative SEO could be a factor but we do keep an eye on that. So that should show before long.

But it definitely looks like the something going on with the rankings and not relating to black hat stuff just poor law-abiding citizens losing their traffic

Maybe Google got it wrong this time!

Just check my rankings monitor and have noted that there was a bit on a gain for myself over night, seeing a couple of page one terms jump a place whilst a few of my competitors have dropped. Will keep an eye out and see if just a blip. Google could be testing something.

According to Google search console between 18th of May and 21st of May. We had a temporary big position drop, with apparently no change in traffic volume but CTR seems to have dropped a bit and not recovered.  Ever since then the graph is quite choppy compared to before but avg position & CTR seem to remain fairly constant.

Crosschecking to traffic in GA this month's traffic compared to last has dropped by about 5% but that could be related to seasonal changes.

With regards to positions I normally monitor weekly to cut out some of the noise that happens with Google these days.  What do you use the daily tracking?
