    Hello all, I am disappointed as one of my sites is affected by something that is causing sudden drop in traffic. Traffic dropped over night. I guess Panda or something is playing with it. Not sure! Site has been up and no hosting issue. Nothing unnatural in behavior and no notice in webmasters tool. Wondering :( Anyone here having the same issue? Traffic dropped on 20th April. Till 19th it was working fine.
    Thanks for any advice.

    I am sure there is another reason for dropping visitor. No Panda Update.

    Hi all. This could be the reason. Their seemed to have been a bug in the system (around 3 days ago) The bug has however been fixed, and people who were affected have returned to their previous rank.

    When you do not get traffic it is your issue..You can make some changes to get it..But when traffic drops without any issue it is too hard to absorb..Still no change and it is dropping gradually..anyone else having such problem..

    I have a website in Vietnamese, 95% traffic comes from Google,
    But my site in English, just 40% comes from search engine.
    I think global traffic is much more difficult to get than pointing to a country's traffic
