    what tools are you using! I'm using awstat and google analytics. I got an increase of traffics in awstat but not in analytics. about 400 down to analytics and 300-500 up in awstat! What should I believe?

    My traffic disappeared on May 15th, came back on May 18th and then left again on the 19th of May never to be seen again. My page rank has remained the same.

    I don't know what Google is doing, but boy oh boy it sure is affecting things with my sites. The worst of it is that they don't owe anyone an explanation. They do what they want and the rest of us have to deal with the fall out.

    Hmm, it seems my traffic came back for two days at about the same level as before, but is gone again today. Has been the same SERPS all along, the traffic from Google just changes. I'm still trying to figure this all out. Two different websites have the same pattern, two others in the same niche showed no drop.

    So, there was a dip in traffic from Google May 29th - June 1st. Traffic was back to normal June 2nd - 4th. And now on the 5th it is gone again. Any one else have the same pattern?

    I finally figured out what happened. My sites were hacked. The hacker was a little sneaky, because he only redirected traffic from search engines, and only if there was no cookie from my site already set, so I never noticed anything was wrong, until I started inspecting my Wordpress code.

    Now I know I need to make sure to upgrade to the latest version of Wordpress more quickly. It was on my to do list, but I hadn't gotten around to it.

    If you do have an older version of Wordpress, you should check your wp-blog-header.php file to make sure it hasn't been messed with.

    We've been experiencing the same problems described in this thread. We saw a 10% drop in Google search traffic starting May 28th, although we were seeing steady improvements in SERPs according to the keyword tool.

    We had recently changed our nameservers (early May) to DNS Made Easy, and we think that our problem may be connected with DNS resolution. Anyone else here using DNS Made Easy with the same problem?

    It would explain our otherwise inexplicable drop in traffic. We've switched back to GoDaddy today, and we're waiting to see if that has an effect. I'll post any results I find.

    Everyone seing a drop in traffic from Google and others, are you all using Google Analytics to view this?

    I was hit with the same June 4 problem - traffic dropped from 150 visitors a day down to 4.

    This didn't make sense as the people registering at my site were greater than the amount of Google traffic.

    I haven't seen a drop in revenue, only drop in Google traffic.

    My SERP in Google are the same.

    I did some testing and realized the older Google analytic code is reporting these low traffic numbers. When I benchmarked against adding in the new Google analytics code (they have two codes you can use), the traffic numbers reported are back up.

    So I ask...is it really a drop in your SERP...or is it everyone is using the Old Google Analytics code that google may have updated on June 4th resulting in this low traffic numbers?

    test this theory...it worked for me....comments/thoughts?

    Anyone still reading this thread? Recently, traffic to my blog has dropped 75%. Many terms that I used to rank for have suddenly been dropped from high positions in the serps. How do I fix this? Is there anything I can do?

    Well there was no one reading it - because it was old and useless .... but now you bumped it - it is now being read ....

    ~~~~~~

    Update your pages, create more pages, get more links to those pages, etc. etc.

    After changing the content, WP should be upgraded to the newest version. Otherwise, it may happen again. Good luck.
