Google is now showing price tracking widgets at the top of the feed. We’ve seen products with price tracking markup notifications within the feed but these widget styles may be new.

Over 6 months ago, a Google search representative said we should all expect more core updates, more often. And in the past six months, we have had only one confirmed Google update, the March 2025 core update.

A couple of years ago, we covered a report by the NY Times on the ongoing issues with review scams and blackmail. Well, the issue is not gone, despite Google responding to that report. From what I am told, it is still relatively common and our own Bill Hartzer was recently threatened and blackmailed with this over SMS.

Over the past two days it has felt like there was some sort of ranking adjustment made in the Google Search organic results. Yea, I know, organic search doesn’t send clicks anymore, but they are still ranked and it seems like there was some sort of larger shuffle in those rankings.
