Google Traffic has Dropped, not sure why

    I have had my site submitted to Google for about 4 months now. Before I was getting anyware from 5 to 25 UV's per day from Google. Recently about 2 weeks ago I totally redesigned my site. I submitted my new sitemap to Google and they have only indexed about 7 of my new pages out of 26, before all of my pages were indexed. I also took any page that had moved and redirected them to the new location with HTML. Is there a reason that my SE traffic has dropped so much? Did I do something wrong by redirecting my pages? For the most part my main pages stayed the same as far as naming convention so they weren't affected. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My site is www.philscomputerrepair.com

    Typically, it takes a few weeks for G to recalulate everything related to your site. As long as you have not done anything that would be considered black hat SEO, I would just be patient. I know that is not easy to do, but making further changes out of a state of panic will usually work against you.

    We did a redesign of our site and it took Google 3-4 weeks to re-index all the pages. The time depends on how long and reputable your site is. Don't worry, it will eventually be re-indexed.

    Its funny how we have all come to expect a instant resault from our work online. I know I am VERY guilty of this.

    Do not fear...BIG G will catch up to you.
