    Okay this has been done to my site now. A little message saying the site has been moved to Wordpress and then a link to the new page. I'll wait a couple weeks and see how the sites doing after it gets indexed again by Google. I really hope this works!

    there are different plugins for wordpress you can use for adds and check for placements of your adds that could be the reason i guess!

    This is what are 301 redirects for.. WHen you place a 301 redirect to the original page, Google considers it as moved and looks at the second page only (which is Google redirected to).

    Yeah but I think the 301 redirect screwed up my site. I kept it that way for 3 weeks and earnings went to nothing. That seems really weird even though all the traffic is going to the page properly. I am going to keep it this new way for a bit (couple weeks) and see if I see any improvement on my site or not.

    Thanks.

    Yes - clicks are still going through so I know the Adsense is working on my site. And can you please stop clicking on the ads. Don't want to get banned from Google Adsense. Thanks!

    I am trying something new now that will hopefully help my site improve in performance.

    Change of IP or Platforms leads to differences in earnings for some time in general.

    Wait for a while and things will be back to normal.

    Do keep us updated, this is an interesting post.

    Very true. Didn't mean for it to come out in a mean way. Sorry :). I just am paranoid sometimes with my account. I think the worst is when I click on my own ads by accident. Get mad I do but Google detects them and just removes the earnings :).

    So I've changed my site back to 301 redirecting all the old pages to the new pages. I lost all my traffic having all the old pages not redirect to the new pages. Couldn't afford to lose all my traffic.

    I'll just give the site a couple months the way it is right now with the redirects and see how it performs. Eventually it should start earning again.

    Good luck with that. Its taken me 9 months of constant SEO from my earnings crashing from $20 to $5 a day to finally be back up over $10 again. All because of putting in a stupid redirect because google thought an old, crap piece of my site that I hadn't updated since 2007 was worth sending 20k visitors a day to so I sent people to the new, good, frequently-updated one instead.

    Question: did your page titles changed a lot from the previous website ? Maybe you lost rankings for keywords ?

    Very common thing with google and adsense, when combined this is a deadly combination.

    I had tried this with one of my 4 year old site, moved it from simple html pages to wordpress and it just went down the drain as far as rankings are concerned in just 4 days time, i got paranoid and i just put back the old site and in 2 days everything was back to normal.

    There is a huge problem with wordpress, if you have been trying to rank a wordpress site from scratch, building to ranking, then it might work fine, but if you have been running an html site and then trying to move it to wordpress what happens is the wordpress adds a lot more code than simple html pages. html pages contain simple codes which google bots might be thinking as clean code, but more wordpress plugins you use the more codes they add, there are even some plugins which reduces the codes in the site, now there is a reason why those plugins exist. Of course, from a user point of view with wordpress you give a much rich user experience, but then you got to take a call on what is best for you, user experience to your users or profitability factor, i believe since your site was on php why not ask some developer to create some good plugins for you as also that improves the user experience on your site and let me tell you, google likes custom created content management system than those open source ones, IMO.

    If you changed all the URLs and use 301 redirect to all your web pages, it's common to see Google deindex and then index all the pages again at a later date. It's like trying to rank a new website all over again because Google picks up on the changes and start to "learn" what your site is all about all over again. Or it could be that your on-site SEO is messed up with the new installation. Try installing SEO plugin to get your on-site SEO to be as close to your old pages. If that doesn't work, switch back to the old pages. Hope that helps.

    Thanks RumpledElf. I've seen my traffic bounce back right up right away when I put in the 301 redirects again. However the earnings are still basically non-existent still. Very frustrating. Will have to wait and see how it goes in the future. Maybe the earnings will come back.

    Very good point Cagliostro. I did however keep the same page titles I believe as far as I know. Just the structure of where the files are hosted is different as its using wordpress permanent link formats now.
