    Help,

    I need your help, since last March 25 this year one of my clients website got a huge drop in traffic. We are not doing any bad backlinking or whatsoever. The website URL is valenciaippolitobowman dot com. Thanks.

    What backlinks techniques are you using now?
    I have analyzed you site and found:
    Your site's IP
    does not redirect to your site's domain name. This could cause duplicate content problems if a search engine indexes your site under both its IP and domain name. Consider using a 301 re-write rule in your .htaccess file so that your site's IP points to your domain name
    And also
    resolve to the same URL.

    Redirection may cause this, Google don't like redirection and also try to know about the Google algorithms and rules. Work on it's on page optimization. Hope with on page work it will be recovered in ranking also.

    Yeah I'm working mostly with onpage, and I know the website right now got plenty of duplicate pages due to the CMS. Are you sure Google don't like redirection? I think 301 is fine with the guys, rather than having lots of duplicates.

    If you redirect the old site to new domain than it doesn't matter but if you redirect one site to another just for the sake of visitors then Google don't like it. Redirection to new domain is ok.

    If you don’t mention 25th March, I never get panic because it was very close to Penguin Launch. I have checked you back-links and find most of them quality but still I want to check it in webmaster tools. Have you checked it in Google Webmaster Tools for Unnatural Links Penalty? If not yet, you can do so by
    1. Adding Your Site in Google Websiter Tools
    If you have already done this, I will review it from On Page Point of view. Please give me your thoughts.

    After Redirect your url Focus on On Page SEO. Change some contents if it is duplicate or low quality content. Find high PR site and submit your site.

    Part of setting up a clients campaign is setting up WMT,Analytics and it's G+ profile that would be a standard in my side.
