When Google rolls out spam updates, such as the June 2026 spam update, it is crucial to monitor your keyword rankings closely during the exact rollout period. Use tools like Semrush’s Position Tracking to observe daily position changes for your target keywords. If you notice a ranking drop that aligns with the update dates, it is likely related to the spam update rather than other factors. Additionally, compare your performance with competitors using Organic Research to understand if the ranking shifts are industry-wide or specific to your site. This precise tracking helps you diagnose causes of visibility changes and respond appropriately. [Semrush]
