My website till yesterday was doing pretty well on Google. A few days back I made some changes. I checked today that my website is gone from all the keywords. I checked the cached copy of my website and noticed that those changes are now there in the cache. I have undone those changes with the immediate effect. Am I right in doing so?
What kinds of changes you have done? Complete change of content and Title Tags can have a great impact in SERPs but it can't be happen that your website will just gone for all the keywords you rank.
Check the Cache page http://webcache.googleusercontent.c.../+loans+4+unemployed&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk and check the actual page http://www.loans4unemployed.co.uk All is OK. Just check the bottom links. I think it has happen due to overstuffing of keyword in anchor text at bottom.
if your changes cause loosing traffic,you did right,but if you didnt change any thing,maybe your website was penalized by Google.
Yes joesmith correct. Keyword stuffing could be a reason. keep building quality links and quality content.
If you already changed back what you edited, you should wait until this version will be cached again and see if you are up again. If you`re not, then those edits weren't the problem
Mate, don't look in cache. It changes not so fast like Google indexing. Caffeine works, it finds changes and new content very fast, but cache changes slowly. And it doesn't shows truth.
Mate, I think that may be some of your Good backlinks have been devalued by Google. Kindly make a note of them using yahoo site explorer and let us know. Keyword stuffing i.e. a pure blackhat Technique may be another reason for this downfall. Anyways,now start building quality links asap.
this is usual for a new website. this is happen because still your website is unstable in google. this won't happen websites which has lots of backlinks
