What is Ranking Volatility?

Ranking volatility describes how strongly positions fluctuate between measurements.

High volatility points to unstable SERPs, algorithm updates, or strong competitor moves. It helps tell whether a drop is a trend or noise. When volatile, measure first – then targeted refreshes instead of panic rewrites.
