Google’s November 2023 core update finally finished rolling out this week, and it was the longest core update rollout.

After just under 26 days, the Google November 2023 core update is finally done rolling out.

The Google November 2023 core update that started to rollout on November 2nd, Thursday afternoon, has been incredibly volatile, heated and in a very short time. We saw the fluctuations maybe even before Google announced the update and it has been super heated since, throughout this weekend. This update came as a surprise to many […]

So changing a character on one page of your site, won’t do anything to help you recover from this Google ranking algorithm. Danny Sullivan, Google’s […]
Only two weeks after the October 2023 core update finished rolling out, we have a new core update rolling out – the November 2023 core update.
