  1. Google rolled a search update on July 21st?

Word on the street is last Saturday, Google has rolled out a search algorithm update. Although, there’s no official statement regarding the same most of the tracking tools have seen the possible signs of an update.

Scope of speculation is because the new update does not seems to be either mobile or desktop specific, so it will be hard to say if a large number of websites are affected by this update.

Here’s a snap of Mozcast and we can clearly see a spike on July 21.
