Help! Not Getting Google Traffic Anymore

Discussion in 'Google' started by HardKore, Feb 1, 2009.

    It seems that one of my blogs isn't getting google traffic anymore. Is it possible that google deindexed all my pages? why would they do that? i don't think my content is bad. one online website analyzer tool said i only have 4 pages listed in google but another said i have 60+. that's weird.

    i used to get 60-300 hits from google per day but it has dropped significantly today. anyone else experience this? this particular blog is just almost a month old, does blog age matter?

    Well often with blogs (And blog posts) they rank really well to start with but drop after a few weeks, so you need to keep making new content and keep building backlinks and you'll rank higher again.

    SERPs= search engine results pages

    Search Google entering the keywords that your blog should show up for... your industry niche or topic. Then see where your blog shows up. If you are not on page one, your traffic will most likely be very low.

    I see, so that's what it's called. I've been doing it before and my pages show up on page one, sometimes even the number 1 result (overtaking wiki), but now, I use the same keywords again to search but most of my sites aren't listed anymore (stopped checking after page 30+). is this normal? would my pages show up again soon if I try the same keywords again?

    traffic can change quite dramatically with a google dance, how long has your site been up?

    Hi,
    Try to less(only 3 are ok) the number of Ad-sense ads if present ..try to minimize number of links to 20 per page ....

    Avoid duplicate content ..write your own one..don't copy it from some where else

    And main and important thing is regularly do POSTING ..like 3 post in a week ..

    and finally use CognoBlue WordPress Theme .. < and see the magic

    Thank you. Will keep those noted sir. The CognoBlue theme looks cool, but i'm using blogspot for my blogs (wordpress is too complicated for me). I've been searching for a CognoBlue Blogger Theme but to know avail, is there even such?

    This means the keywords you were using are highly populated(good competition) and used by most of the webmasters now. You have to work again to get your positions back as well as traffic too .

    You must have lost your SERPs. Just re-tweak those keywords or just wait a while longer. Google has been going through a few changes now.
