Normalized result-set distance
For each keyword, we compare the ordered top 20 with the prior day. Rank movement and result replacement are normalized, averaged, and placed on a 0–10 scale.
A deterministic daily view of how much the top 20 organic results moved across a fixed basket of 200 US-English searches.
Collecting the daily baseline. No movement score is invented before two complete days exist.
Overall observed displacement
Higher numbers mean more result-set displacement. They do not identify a cause or confirm an algorithm update.
Every card uses the same fixed basket and exact calculation. Choose a category to inspect its published 30-day history.

The sensor compares consecutive complete days. It is simple enough to reproduce and deliberately makes no causal claim.
Learn more →For each keyword, we compare the ordered top 20 with the prior day. Rank movement and result replacement are normalized, averaged, and placed on a 0–10 scale.
The 200 keywords span 10 categories. Visitors cannot submit or select terms, and basket edits require a reviewed code change.
Every observation uses US-English desktop search and the first 20 organic results. It is not a view of every country, device, or query.
Day one publishes an honest baseline state. A numeric value appears only when a category has two consecutive, fully collected days.
A global daily ceiling stops vendor spend. A partial day publishes only complete categories and labels every skipped category instead of filling gaps.
A high value reports displacement in this basket only. It does not prove a search algorithm update, explain why results moved, or predict your site's rankings.
