Show Notes

James Dooley and Kasra Dash break down the Google dance because ranking volatility shapes how websites rise or fall on Google. They explain that Google triggers random ranking shifts to block manipulation, which causes sites to jump up and down after links or content updates. They show that ranking states influence outcomes because positive, neutral and negative states change how Google interprets signals. They argue that cannibalisation, topical authority and algorithm dial-shifts all create turbulence because Google constantly tests relevance, power and behaviour data. They warn that rash changes worsen damage because core updates settle slowly and recovery often happens without intervention.
