Google has officially rolled out its June 2025 Core Update, which signals a major change in search rankings and website visibility. As with previous core updates, this one aims to refine how Google evaluates and ranks web pages, ensuring users receive the most relevant and high-quality content.

Google June 2025 core update has launched today. Google states, “The rollout may take up to 3 weeks to complete.” 

This means ranking changes might continue until the update settles down. If you’ve noticed ranking shifts on your website, this update could be the reason behind them.

Key Highlights of this Google June 2025 Core Update

Google still values E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) when it evaluates content. Sites with well-researched, expert-backed content stand to gain, while thin or poor-quality content might see a drop.

No quick solutions exist. Google’s advice stays the same: don’t rush to change your site during the rollout Drops don’t always mean your site has problems—rankings might just be shifting.

Better User Experience

Core Web Vitals (load speed, responsiveness, visual consistency)

AI-Created Content Gets a Closer Look

 As AI tools become more common, Google is getting better at spotting low-value automated content. While well-done AI-assisted content isn’t punished, spammy or unoriginal material might lose its ranking.

Why Your Rankings Might Drop During a Google Core Update

 A Lot of websites see their rankings go up and down during core updates. Here are the reasons why:

1. Your Content Doesn’t Meet Google’s Quality Bar 

2. Technical SEO Problems Are Now More Obvious 

3. Google Has Changed How It Sees Search Intent 

4. Your Content Is Old or Doesn’t Say Much 

What You Should Do If You’re Affected

If you’ve noticed ranking drops, don’t panic or rush into making drastic changes. Instead:

Keep an eye on shifts over time 

Wait until the update fully rolls out before making major edits. Sometimes, rankings stabilize or bounce back.

 Focus on quality improvements

Review Google’s content quality guidelines and update your content to meet E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) standards.

Refresh outdated content

Add updated stats, new visuals, and more in-depth insights to boost value.

Don’t delete content unnecessarily

Focus on improving it first. Deleting content can harm your overall domain relevance.
