Some significant Google Search ranking instability surfaced on November 5, we are also aware that we have just come off the back of a somewhat nerve-wracking election day. This recent instability could be from the most recent USA election, but it is believed to be far more than that.
This instability comes off the back of the Google Halloween 2024 Google search update.
There has been a spike in conversations in the SEO world and some of the tools are also showing a spike in volatility within the Google Search results in the past day or so.
Once again, we remind you that Google did tell us that a search update is coming soon and volatility has been occurring quite frequently over the last 2-3 months, both before and after election day in the US.
