since a week i have been seeing a decrease of visitors in my site, almost my half , one of the top content in my site is Justin Bieber Joke and it is the content that has been pulling visitors for me it was in #1 at Google search (for almost a year).. but today i checked and noticed that post is de-indexed from google (that 1 post only) , i checked the setting everything is right, that post have index & follow setting . Similarly i also noticed ranking of several posts in my site has also decreased.. Does any one know why ? the post is http://nepallica.com/justin-bieber-jokes And this post is not a duplicate post,, it is original post (all jokes are not original but some are) and when it was first published there was merely some posts regarding this. Please help me figure it out.
Your site looks good. The only reason I can think of was that I had a hard time loading your page. The first time it wouldn't load at all. The second time, it was stuck on loading a button from Reddit. It's very likely that google pays attention to a pages load time, so this could be affecting it perhaps?
I agree with TruthW87. I've heard slow page load times can have a negative affect on your ranking. Have you also been working on creating backlinks? Creating backlinks on some high PR sites may help bump you up a bit.
well your site does not load at all for me,and yes slow pages are a negative factor but not likely you are going to be de-indexed for such thing
i also have some doubt on slow loading of page but it is not that slow.. but deindexing is weird.. i have used w3 total cache + Cloudflare to boost speed since some months . In case of my site,, content loads first then js , disqus comment starts to load. I don't know what is the cause of problem , the place i'm hosting my site seems to be fine .. no one else is complaining about speed or like that. I have also deleted plugin that showed related post with image. just noticed that JB jokes page is deindexed in bing and yahoo too.. I'm not into creating backlinks ,, but i have noticed some spammy (IMO) sites was sending trackbacks to my site, i checked them as spam in my WP, it is beyond webmaster's control if someone is linking to his site.
something like this is hard to diagnose, especially if you're talking about a single page. my recommendation would be to forget it and focus on writing more new stuff.
