    Your page redesign should have nothin to do with your traffic going down. Did you change up your links or your content? That's your cause right there, not a design.

    The traffic you're losing is from which source?
    Should be a temporary issue if it's organic traffic that you are losing. Your rankings should bounce back within a couple of weeks.

    Well, if they lost google rankings - its because they lose it for a reason, obviously they need to work on backlinks.

    Have you checked your statistics program for today and compared it to a few days before? There might be an advertisement who isn't online anymore etc. too. Do let us know if it's with Google, we could then look into the problem ;)

    Page Redesign does affect the traffic is your meta description and other information style has been changed. I have also experienced a 30% traffic drop on my website. I don't think you will get it back as it is related to onpage optimization. Building a link on that might help you out...
