Checked Oct 23, 2026 · graded Oct 23, 2026 by ToolGPA.

Algoroo is a free website from the Australian agency DEJAN that tracks day-to-day turbulence in Google's search results. It watches the rankings of a fixed set of keywords and adds up their rises and falls into one daily score it calls roo, charted for google.com or google.com.au on desktop or mobile. Algorithm updates that Google discloses are marked on the chart.

## Key features

- **Daily roo score:** Each day's ranking movement across the watched keywords, up and down, is summed into one figure; a high roo means unusually volatile results.
- **Color-coded timeline:** Ordinary days stay green, while days with unusual movement turn orange or red, so a likely algorithm change stands out on the chart.
- **Google update notes:** When Google discloses an algorithm update, Algoroo adds it as an annotation on the matching day of the chart.
- **Two markets, two devices:** Switch the chart between google.com and google.com.au, and between desktop and mobile results.
- **Today's summary:** A short note compares today's score with yesterday's and counts the days since the last orange or red spike.
- **History back to 2017:** The data behind the google.com desktop chart starts in July 2017, so a current spike can be set against earlier updates.

## Good for

- Checking whether a sudden ranking drop lines up with wider Google turbulence
- Sites that rank in Australia, with a google.com.au view beside google.com
- A quick daily look at search volatility without signing up for anything

## Worth knowing

- It measures movement across its own keyword set; it does not track your site's keywords or positions.
- Only google.com and google.com.au are covered, on desktop and mobile.
- The keyword set is not published; the site describes it only as thousands of carefully selected keywords.
- The page has Weekly Winners and Losers headings, but their data calls are switched off and both lists were empty when read.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.8 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Algoroo is a free web chart from the Australian agency DEJAN that scores how much Google's results move each day. It doesn't track your own site or keywords at all. It covers only google.com and google.com.au, the keyword set behind the score isn't published, and its Weekly Winners and Losers lists were empty when read. Anyone wanting their own rankings needs a real rank tracker.

- **Value for money: A.** Free, all of it. There's no paid tier and no account: the chart, the daily summary and the update notes are open to anyone, and the google.com desktop history goes back to 2017.
- **Free plan and trial: A.** Free outright, with nothing to sign up for. Open the page and the whole thing is there, for desktop and mobile results.
- **Features: D.** One narrow job: a daily volatility score with color-coded spikes and Google's announced updates marked. It covers only google.com and google.com.au, and it never tracks your own site or keywords, which is what this category is for.
- **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record, but there's nothing to set up: open the site, pick google.com or google.com.au and desktop or mobile, and read the chart.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no app, no API and no integrations. It's a page you visit, and that's it.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Algoroo is free, so making your own would save you nothing. And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 38 of the 39 other rank trackers we grade.

- You could not: A library of papers and sources to search.
- You could not: Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
