My google SE traffic down 1000 per day to 50 per day after activating wp super cache. I think htaccess reason for this problem. Check my htaccess code... # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress
As far as I'm aware, this is completely normal in the .htaccess file for Wordpress sites. I think it's the code that re-writes the URLs for search engines. It should have absolutely no effect on SE ranking or traffic (in fact, it should help). So it is probably another reason why your traffic is down. Cheers Graeme
On above code - RewriteBase / not added. Here clear code # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress It is reason for ranking down....
