Reply To: Google’s been acting weird again

From my experience, yeah, I’ve seen this kind of wobble before and it’s usually not as dramatic as people want it to be, but it’s still annoying as hell. What’s been more interesting lately is the pattern — pages that were sitting there stable for ages suddenly get re-tested, then half-drop, then come back a bit worse. Feels less like a clean “penalty” and more like Google shuffling trust around for whatever reason. The AI junk not moving much while older pages hang on is pretty normal too, unfortunately. I wouldn’t trust the “just improve content” crowd on this one either. Sometimes the page is fine and Google’s just being twitchy.
