Today Google has announced its latest update "Google June 2019 Broad Core". Have you noticed the Google June 2019 impact on your site's ranking? Will it really impact on search engine raking? I am worried.
Well, I see more ads on the search results page than ever before. Then the organic search results about 50% directories that then have the same ad buyers as the google search results page. All in all, something like 80% ads, 20% organic in my niche. With the duplication of the ads in the directories with the ads on Google, sure seems the quality has been sacrificed for the sake of revenue. Never thought I would say this, but social media efforts are more worthwhile now, better targeted advertising, because user produced content is more readily available.
I totally agree with you, after ads sometimes irrelevant contents are also indexed in the first page and quality contents get no place from the first page.
I saw a lot of sites drop, but I also found a lot also increased traffic. Curious to learn what they targeted.
UPDATE: After two-plus months now, my traffic increase has leveled out at about 25% since the algorithm update.
What was the name of that core update again? "Adsense first Index" after the good earnings figures from the first quarter of 2019.
