The company continues to work on enhancing content visibility from creators, with additional improvements to be implemented throughout the year. Impact of the update on search rankings Core algorithm updates can significantly affect website rankings in search results, which is why Google usually announces them in advance. The March update is the first since the December 2024 update. Here are the latest core algorithm updates from Google: December 2024 – December 12-18 November 2024 – November 11 – December 5 August 2024 – August 15 – September 3 March 2024 – March 5 – April 19 (the largest update in history) What to do if your site is affected by the update? Google has not provided any new recommendations regarding the March 2025 Core Update. However, the company previously stated: There are no specific actions to recover rankings after a drop in search results. A ranking decline does not necessarily mean that your site has issues. It is advisable to assess your content using Google's list of quality and usefulness questions. Recovery may occur between updates, but major changes usually happen after a new core update. Google advises focusing on creating high-quality, useful content for people rather than for search algorithms. Why does this matter? Each core algorithm update can lead to significant changes in search rankings, affecting organic traffic and website positions. If your site has experienced a traffic decline, it may be worth reviewing your content creation and optimization strategies. We expect this update to have a positive impact on those who create high-quality and valuable content for users. Hopefully, this algorithm change will bring more traffic and conversions to your site.
