3. Core Update
Last May, Google launched an update to its search engine ranking algorithm, called the "May Core Update".
But it is important to know that, in general, Google is focusing on quality. There are therefore several points to keep in mind. For example;
- Does the title clearly summarise the content of the page?
- Is this content written by an expert or an enthusiast who has mastered the subject?
- Are there any spelling or stylistic errors in the content?
- Is the content displayed correctly on mobile devices?
- Is the content produced by a large number of creators, largely outsourced, or distributed across a vast network of sites, so that each page or site is not subject to very thorough control?
And many more. To find out more, readthe whole checklist in the full article here.
And some news

In conclusion, these different news items can have a direct impact, positive or negative, on the positions of your website on the Google search engine.
