Reply To: Anyone else seeing weird ranking swings?

Yeah, seeing it too. Feels like the usual “something’s being shuffled around” nonsense more than a clean drop. What’s been annoying me is the volatility on pages that normally don’t move much at all. That usually means some recalculation / testing / indexing weirdness, not necessarily a site-wide problem. But Google’s been so sloppy lately it’s hard to tell if it’s a real signal or just another round of garbage data. The junk pages getting indexed faster is the part that still makes no sense to me. I’ve seen thin crap get crawled and surfaced while solid pages sit in limbo, which is… yeah, pretty on brand for them at this point. If it’s only been a few days, I’d typically leave it alone. Changing stuff mid-swing usually just gives you more noise to stare at. At least lately.
