    Analyze your stats for the last 12/36 months and do a backlinks audit to see which/if Google update did penalized your site.

    My domain age is 8 month +. Some days ago has my blog post/pages up to 600, I remove 300 post from this blog, for this reasons Google crawl my previous all indexed post. I did "Mark as fixed" using Google webmaster tools, but my domain authority with my organic visitors go down.

    The removal just created a void. Be steady and slow. Add good posts on regular basis, good enough to have people share them. Google takes its own time to recognize the worth of a website after such case. It's nothing to worry.

    Bro You have remove around 300 post that's agood amount of content and chances of increase or ERROR #404 pages. So that this is happening with you.
    Remove all those from your site map. Best way to do that ReGenerate your site map and Submit it again.

    Thanks for your comments, I already resubmit my blog sitemap before 20 days. I think high pr social bookmarking can assist me and rank all keywords again. If I will rank again using my whitehat level techniques so I will surely let you through this post and make good community. Now I just build the optimization foundation re-again. My blog visitors was 30k per day, now only 6-7k - I'm so afraid. Anyway- thanks everybody.

    That was a REALLY bad decision... Removing even just ONE article could lead to a mass ranking drop... what should be expected for 300 articles... Be sure to REDIRECT from other articles to at least the homepage or the tag pages, etc... Also, be sure to add a few NEW articles and PING your blog! ;)

    I would say the reason behind the fall of your DA is the removal of those 300 articles, like @patco said that removing just one articles can effect in decrease in the traffic as well as the ranking and you have removed 300 but again i can say this is good if you point out the bad ones and removed them keep on posting the new ones and your DA will automatically climb up.

    Any valid reason for removing half of your blog content ? You can't do things like this and expect rankings to remain constant.
    Also how you achieved DA 56 in only 8 months ? Are you using active back-linking campaigns ? This may trigger red flags to Google.

    Rebuild slow.

    Quoted for truth.

    Just to add, your Google SERP rankings didn't drop because your DA dropped. DA is a SEOMoz metric, not a Google metric. It's a decent indicator of the quality of your site but it's not used by Google.

    Nuking 300 pages is likely what caused your drop. But I'm with @SilerBlade in suspecting that it could also be related to your link building techniques. I bet the number of dropped backlinks has spiked in the last month. Linkloss.

    100% right brother.
    I get quality backlinks for my own blogs with(through) quality contents but I'm not back-linking campaigns, because nowdays SEO isn't easy. I always build backlinks from -
    - Quality article niche - readers FEELING ENGAGED by read
    - GREAT KILLER HEADLINE
    - KILLER CONTENT
    - High Social Profile authority with blog community
    - High Google Author Rank
    - Click through
    - High PA Blogs
    - High PR dofollow + nofollow blogs

    Thanks everybody
