Google Algorithms that Are Currently in Use at its Google Search Ranking Systems

There are countless Google algorithms that have been introduced in the last year or so, but a few of them have changed the landscape of SEO forever. The aim of Google is to update its search algorithm thousands of times during a year. In most cases, the algorithms of Google are too small to notice. But once in a while, Google introduces a change so fundamental that disrupts the manner by which we do SEO forever.

Core updates( 2017- till present)

Since 2017 Google starting referring to bigger updates as core updates of Google. Since that juncture, there is less transparency about what are those updates and which aspects of the search they intend to improve. It is very unlikely that the Google core updates are just improvements over the previous  Google updates or the smaller updates aligned together.

As the effects of Google core updates are unknown, a thing that can be done is to track down the SERP history for the keywords you are targeting. The moment an update happens you can check with your competitors whether they have moved up or down in rankings and an educated guess can be made about the contributing factors.

For tracking your SERP history you may launch a rank tracker and go to targeted keywords.

Hazards: lack of focus, poorly written content and lack of context

This Google algorithm update makes use of technology for natural language processing to comprehend search queries better. It identifies entities and interprets queries and relationships between entities. A notable feature of  Bert is that it moves from the keywords as it would allow Google to understand much more nuance in queries and search results.

We have finally reached a scenario where Google is rewarding quality and well-researched content. It’s more important than ever to work toward a meaningful copy. It is better to go for fluff words and adopt an exploratory style of writing. A great idea would be to conduct entity research when creating a copy. This would include relevant entities that would help create a context for your content.
