Search never stands still. In 2025, Google has continued rolling out AI-driven updates designed to prioritise helpful, human-first content while punishing thin, spammy, or outdated sites. For businesses, that means one thing: if your SEO strategy hasn’t evolved, your rankings – and your leads – are at risk.
At RS Digital, we’ve been guiding clients through Google algorithm changes for over 20 years. From Panda and Penguin to today’s AI-powered search ranking systems, we know exactly how to adjust strategies so that our clients not only survive updates, but thrive because of them.
If your site has slipped down the rankings in recent weeks, it’s not by accident. But it can be fixed. Call 01282 452096 today and let’s audit your site.
What Changed in 2025?
- Helpful Content Update 2.0 – Google has doubled down on quality. Content that genuinely informs, educates, or solves a problem ranks. AI-generated fluff does not.
- Search Generative Experience (SGE) – AI-powered snippets are now answering more queries directly. To win, you must structure content for featured snippets, FAQs, and voice queries.
- EEAT is Everything – Expertise, Experience, Authority, Trust. Sites with proof of authority (reviews, case studies, expert content) are rising fast.
RS Digital aligns your SEO with all of these updates — from technical audits to content cluster strategies — so you always stay ahead.

FAQs
- How do Google algorithm updates affect my website rankings?
Google algorithm updates are designed to refine search results. In 2025, updates have placed a much stronger focus on “helpfulness” and user intent. That means if your site content is vague, outdated, or not aligned with what searchers really want, your rankings will fall. Technical issues—like poor site speed, broken links, or lack of mobile optimisation—also play a part. At RS Digital, we constantly monitor algorithm shifts and adapt strategies in real time, so our clients’ sites benefit instead of dropping. This proactive approach means you won’t have to panic each time Google announces a new update—you’ll already be optimised. - Can I recover if my website has already lost rankings?
Yes, absolutely. Many businesses see ranking drops after an update, but recovery is possible with the right strategy. First, we run a technical audit to identify site issues. Next, we refresh and restructure your content for EEAT signals—showing Google you’re an authority. Finally, we build quality backlinks and ensure your site earns SEO trust signals, like reviews and testimonials. Depending on the competitiveness of your industry, recovery can take weeks or a few months, but most clients begin to see noticeable improvements within 3–6 months. With RS Digital’s expertise, recovery doesn’t just mean bouncing back—it often means ranking even higher than before. - How often does Google update its algorithm, and how does RS Digital stay ahead?
Google makes thousands of tweaks every year—some minor, others major. The “core updates,” which significantly affect rankings, typically roll out multiple times annually. In 2025, these updates have leaned heavily on AI to evaluate content quality and user experience signals. RS Digital stays ahead by continuously testing strategies, monitoring Google’s announcements, and applying data from our client base across different industries. As Google Partners, we also receive early insights and direct support, which gives us a strategic advantage. Instead of reacting when rankings drop, we implement future-proof SEO strategies that keep your business stable, visible, and profitable no matter what Google changes next.
