      Hi

      I've noticed some ranking drops on 15th Jan, I saw there was an update on Jan 8th - could this have had a knock on effect a week later?

        Hi Becky,

        I think you are getting this rank drop because of that Core ranking algo update. Because i also noticed ranking dropdown with my keywords after this update.

          Yes - there is turbulence now in SERP:

          http://serp.watch/

          According to Google this was "core update".

            Yes lots still going on, whether it is linked to the previous update or some other activity we will no doubt find out in time. However, for now I'd potentially expect more movements both up and down until things settle.

            Good article and insight from SEORoundTable
