Site traffic dropped

About two weeks ago I got nearly 600 hits in a day. That was my highest I haved gotten. Every day since my traffic has went down. Is this usual? how do I stop the trend. I'm down to 25-50 hits now. That's huge. How do I get it to go back up? What did I do wrong?

Thanks.

 

Where did your traffic come from in the first place?

 

Search Engines, but i was a br of 0 and still am I dont get it...I mean, grant it a lot was from other wrestling sites but not enough to drop down over 78 percent.

 

The same thing happen to my blog. Earlier It was 200 hits a day. Now a days it come down to 80 visits.

 

So I'm not the only one. Do you have any ideas what's making it do that?

 

What was your bounce rate? Google will "test" out a site but if the bounce rate is too high you've failed the test and loose the traffic.

 

I have no clue :'(...my site stats don't tell me what my bounce rate is. How do I find out? Is there a way I can get the traffic back?

 

Google analytics will tell you what your bounce rate is and you can't beat the price Personally I had an issue with a site. The bounce rate was as high as 62%, then I dropped it to 30% and finally to less than 5%. Once it was under control, the traffic started flowing in from 20 visits a day from google to 750 and still rising.

I knew the bounce rate was a problem I just needed to figure out how to solve it. The solution will of course be different for each site, in my case I was embedding images which were too large and scaling them down in the image tag. I fixed the problem by creating thumbnails instead and getting ride of any useless html/javascript to make the page and all of its included objects as small as possible.

 

I just signed up for that google analytics so I don't know what my bounce was. What is a bounce rate? I think when I used to sue google analytcs my bounce rate was always real high. My wrestling site is a news site so people just come and see if there are any new updates and leave if not...or just view a post that was seemingly interesting to them that was sent to their twitter or something.

 

This is the rate of visitors land on your site and then leave within 5 seconds without going to another page on your site. It's not the same thing as the exit rate, so landing on the page and checking out the content shouldn't result in a bounce. It is usually like somebody hits your link in the SERP and then almost immediately hits the back button to check out another result.

 

Oh ok ...so just as long as they are there 5 or more seconds then it's not the bounce rate?
