Her website is still indexed fully: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site:osteodiet.com&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq= But she no longer gets any visits from google. Prior to the server move, she was getting ~70 visits a day from google and was ranking high in many keywords. Now she doesnt even appear on the top 200 matches for a search for keywords that she ranked #1 on, even obscure ones with little to no competition. Its been a week now. I moved quite a few websites to the new server, hers was the only one that was hit. My other websites' SERPS are actually higher now than they were before the move, but its been a week and my mom's website is still bad off. I'm starting to wonder if its something other than the server move. Its my mom's blog... no black hat, white hat, any hat stuff going on. If anyone knows anything about this sort of thing, please check out her site and let me know what it could possibly be, or should we just wait this out? -Cit
Was there any problem with the move? How long was the site down for? That is probably the biggest culprit after moving servers.
The site was *maybe* down for a few hours. I have a bunch of other sites that did the exact same move and my serps for them have either not changed or have actually improved.
Hmmm. Unless you picked up some bad links somewhere, I think Google is moving the site around, especially since your other sites are fine. Hang in there for a little bit longer, pick up some links during that time, and it might come back.
I'm worried that perhaps its a duplicate content issue, she's using wordpress... I've had the All in One SEO pack installed for a LONG time and I really cant think of anything done to it recently except for the move.
That plug in should stop any of the serious duplicate content issues. I also noticed the site is quite old, which also leads me to think this is quite natural.
Did this happen around the 20th or 21st? A lot of people said some of their sites dropped right off google serps. It may just be a coincidence that you moved your site at the same time google tweaked the algorithm.
Your new server IP might be black listed by Google. I had an experienced in moved from one hosting to another hosting within the same country and never had any problem in ranking.
Yeah just wait it out. If nothing happens, then try and get some more links to it. Good luck. The IP can't be blacklisted, he said he moved other sites to the same server, and nothing has happened to them.
