Tracking the changes or updates regarding Google algorithms can be a time-consuming task. This is because the algorithms undergo thousands of updates or changes per year. Google does not announce the changes to everybody. Therefore, the onus is on each individual to find a way or identify tools with which to keep track of the changes. Keeping track of these alterations is crucial, as they have a direct effect on sales and revenues as well as the profitability of the online business. Here are a few tools which can help you with tracking Google algorithm updates:

Algoroo

With this tool, information regarding changes to Google Analytics appears on a graph. Moreover, the tool makes it much easier to see any changes or updates that took place in the previous month. In fact, with Algoroo, anybody can see updates or data that have taken place during the last few months2

Mozcast

Without a shadow of a doubt, this is the most popular tool in terms of tracking or monitoring Google Analytics, despite the fact that its results focus on only the last 30 days. It shows the changes as temperatures, which is a common feature of weather reports. When in need of graphs that show changes over the last three months, Mozcast wins this war.

SERPWoo

It is one of the newest tools in terms of tracking or monitoring changes in Google algorithms, but this does not take anything away from its accuracy. With this tool, one can keep track of fluctuations regarding Google SERP in addition to tracking the analytics. It provides a Google volatility chart that covers 28 countries around the world.

SERPmetrics

Few Google Analytics tools are older than SERPmetrics. It keeps track of 100,000 keywords and shows results that cover the last 30-day period. The developers prefer showing results in the form of a line graph rather than a bar graph, which is a common feature of many of the other Google Analytics tracking or monitoring tools.

SERPS.com

This tool helps keep track of more than 1,000 websites only. Do not expect the tool to provide results in terms of tracking keywords, as it lacks such capabilities. Its volatility graph, which tackles Yahoo and Google alike, cover the previous 30 and 90 days. It has as simple an interface as what any person can expect with the other tracking tools.

Rank Risk Index

This tool is responsible for tracking more than 10,000 keywords and domains. It is the product of the Rank Ranger team. The tool provides results between the last 30 and 90 days, but in different charts.
