Algorithm Update Consulting
Sometimes a newsletter edition isn't enough. When you need to understand how a specific update relates to changes you've seen in your own data, a focused session with one of our analysts gives you that clarity.
What a consulting session covers
Every site is different. A newsletter edition covers patterns across many sites. A consulting session focuses on your site's specific situation, your Search Console data, and the updates that coincide with any traffic or ranking changes you've observed.
Sessions are conducted over video call. Before the session, you share relevant data: Search Console screenshots, Analytics trends, or specific pages you're concerned about. The analyst reviews this before the call so the session time is spent on analysis rather than orientation.
The output is a written summary after the session, covering what was discussed and what the analyst observed in your data relative to the update timeline.
Choose the format that fits your situation
Traffic Drop Review
You've seen a drop in organic traffic or rankings and want to understand whether it coincides with a known algorithm update. The analyst reviews your data against the confirmed update timeline and explains what the pattern suggests.
Content Audit Orientation
Before you audit your content for quality signals, a session with our content systems researcher gives you a clear picture of what the Helpful Content System actually evaluates, so your audit focuses on what matters rather than what's commonly misunderstood.
Ongoing Update Briefing
A recurring monthly session where an analyst walks through recent updates and their potential relevance to your site type. Useful for marketing managers who need to brief teams or report to leadership on search environment changes.
