all but two out of my k/w in google have dropped off the charts. No wonder my traffic count is so pathetic. I mean the dp kw tracker shows so much red it looks like a scene from Kill Bill. I may have to be committed if this doesn't change around like, now! Holy crap.... somebody shoot me....
fryman, mopacfan - I'm with ya! My DP kw tracker looks bad, so bad I've even stopped looking at it because I was on the verge of throwing me monitor out of the window The tool should have a warning on it like 'if your ranks suck big time do not use this tool because you'll turn into a raging psychopath' .. I do love MSN though! lol
my DP keyword tracking chart is totally bloody. many keywords went down from top 10 to top 20. many of them are out of top 200. There's only one phrase I still hold #1 - "History of ecommerce". it generates some traffic, but no commerce value. I've survived precious updates, the one hits me really hard. look at the bright side, traffic from msn and yahoo has picked up nicely.
I'm thinking the coop is to blame. as much as I hate to think that, because my sites that do not have the coop are still just as good as they were.
I think bad neighbourhoods are to blame, and as a result, sites running the Coop are particularly vonurable (sp?!?)... Measures could be put in place to stop this issue, if there was in fact a way of knowing how to identify a bad neighbourhood..
i think tracking the cached pages in google, and matching the websites cached to the rankings you are obtaining (on good days and bad) will help you.
No, because I didn't have that many links to begin with. Only around 1,300. Now it shows about 550. And I've had the links for several months and the site is over four years old. Judging from the others around here that are bleeding red in the kw tracker, the common denomonator seems to be the coop.
Hey....I got ya all beat big time. 17 primary KW's that were in top 20 or so a month ago all -9970 or more in KW tracker. Indexed pages dropped from 400 to 67 and will probably be zip very soon. If it's a bad hood I wish someone could figure out who it is and get rid of it. This is killing me.
All I know to do is remove the coop and see if G will take me back. Otherwise, I'll end up having to create a companion site to get my rankings back and that would suck hard considering how much work that would entail.
I've taken the Coop out, at least temporarily,and submitted my site to Google to crawl. Decided to do that since it's been over 2 weeks since any GBot visited the site. Hopefully they'll take me back. I really don't want to create another site or change url either. We've been around since 1998. This is all making me sick. Think I'll stop on the way home and buy a bottle of Crown.
Mine did the same T0PS, I find it hard to believe its a bad neighborhood... I have a feeling its pages using the adnetwork as the only linking for the domain (or a large %).
I don't think it has anything to do with COOP. I am not in COOP, and all my ranking are out of 200. Well...... what if they are finding out who tracks the results regularly thru the Google API key.... just being paranoic I know
