As per indication from Google, has changed Searching Algo. Today when i have visited Google Webmaster i was surprised by seeing the search queries result. For all my sites Search queries down from 2000 to 200 approx 90%. Can you suggest me what will be the new strategy for organic SEO.
the new strategy is to write original content and get traffic from search engines all the spammy crappy content has been removed from Google!
i am handling more then 20 sites and all have unique content but still my search result decreased............Why??
If queries are down in webmaster tools, but your traffic remains the same in Analytics, then don't worry, its just a bug in WMT's. Read http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2097908 Cheers James
yes google still on demand . 2011 is time to clean up result of search engine . google still on new mysterious algo
Me too observed the same changes in WMT's, decrease in no. of visitors need to work more on my content originality and quality to achieve more visitors.
Yeah WMT data is screwed up right now and has been for the last 48 hours. It's there usually three-month hip-cup. Can't complain, it's free.
yes google changed Searching Algo, i am trying to come up with it it`s really make big change to my sites.
because the backlinks were mostly spammy i would say, not sure though, just a thought, but i could almost bet i m right because backlinks carry most of the weight on organic. Google takes a step forward again and can now detect exploits on social sites ect ect ... just like google decided years back that too much newly opened sites that point back to the same source are black hat and should be penalized for that. Google now goes even further and downgrades sites that try to spamm its way to the top with almost god`s furry. There could be another explanation for that, i just offered this one
I got hammered by the new change. I lost nearly all my google traffic and had to do a complete change of multiple parts of the website. The lucky thing is my competitors in the same niche (toys and art) have much less unique content and I was able to move 120 unique content articles to it's own domain without the penalty for blogging about stuff already online.
I noticed it too. I think google changed their algorithm. Some gained traffic and some peoples traffic dropped.
Just after 1 day(15th Feb) google webmaster site search queries came to normal. As per my experience google is testing new algo before finally applied.
