Google confirms the June 2025 core update is now rolling out and may take up to three weeks to complete.
Google began rolling out its June 2025 core update today. The update started at 7:34 AM PDT.
According to Google’s Search Status Dashboard, the rollout may take up to three weeks to complete.
Core updates involve broad changes to Google’s ranking systems and are not targeted at specific types of content or violations. These updates are designed to improve Google’s ability to surface helpful, high-quality content in search.

Google advises against making reactive changes while an update is still rolling out. Here’s what you should do instead:
Google releases core updates several times a year. Past rollouts have shown that their effects can vary, some sites experience immediate impacts, while others see gradual changes.
Once the rollout is complete, Google will update its ranking release history to reflect the final status.
Search Engine Journal will monitor the rollout as it progresses and provide updates when available.
