Whenever Google announces a new core update, as the Core update announced today in March 2025, I always want to check my customers’ ranking lists, especially those who have tried to recover after a previous core update.
Yes, I know that ranking lists fluctuate and we shouldn’t check until the update is finished. Still … tell me that you don’t do the same!
However, it is difficult to do this immediately. In the past, they were able to look at the hourly Google Organic traffic in GA and get a feeling for whether it was significantly higher than usual. With GA4, however, the traffic data are often delayed.
What I do is the following:
- Take a look at the average ranking list for inquiries in the last 7 days in GSC.
- Make an incognito window manually to determine whether something has changed.
Now remember that we really cannot say anything about ranking changes until the core update is completely complete.
I thought of a cool way of having my new assistant. Chatgpt operator Do that for me. I exported the last 7 data from GSC. Then I took the top 15 keywords and copied them together with the registered ranking list positions.
Then I opened the Chatgpt operator. If you are not familiar with the operator, it is a AI system that uses a browser to achieve things. I prompted this to
“Here you will find a list of queries and ranking positions for (my customer). Give a Google search for each of these terms and make me a new table that shows the previous ranking and what you find today. “”
I watched the operator opened a browser and carried out a Google search for each of these queries.
After about 10 minutes it was notified that the task had done and gave me this table.
Let’s hope that they stick!
I assume that we will use more and more for such agent systems. Google Project MarinerAn agent tool that uses a browser is expected to be suspended this year. The CEO of Google, Sundar Pichai, said recently that it was expecting within 2-3 years These tools will be deeply embedded in our workflows.
