Traffic Low Lately - Losing SERP's for almost all my Posts

    I don't really know what is going on. Google finally has fixed their crawling
    problem, but ever since they did, my traffic has gone way way down on both
    of my major sites. Specifically, my AManzBlog.Com website which is the top chart in the diagram below.

    Does anybody know what the situation is? Maybe it's because I haven't
    posted in awhile. I'm going to begin posting again and see if my old pages
    begin to rank highly again. We'll see.

    But it's just awkward. I used to be number one on page one for many of
    my posts. Now you can copy that same post title directly and barely rank
    anywhere at all. Maybe it's because I got rid of my meta tags? Hmm...

    I was just curious to see if anyone was in the same boat as myself.

    Thanks,
    Taylor

    Supercops. The same exact thing with me. Lol.

    Normally I would have between 100 to 140 unique
    views by now, but I only have 6. Dang it!


    I thought I was going to be happy when Google
    fixed the indexing problem. However, if this is the
    outcome, let's go back a few days in time.

    Seriously, when I was having the indexing issue
    with my site, I was making (let's say a few dollars)
    a day. Now I am barely making pennies...

    Your blog is fairly new and it is not really your fault. Keep on posting and yopu will see a rise in traffic soon.

    I think you need to usew something like analytics to see where your traffic was coming from. You will then be better able to understand the slow down

    same thing here, I don't know what google is trying to do....

    maybe they are sending everyone to big sites like youtube and wikipedia and answers and us smaller people are getting bled down to just a trickle of traffic

    it seems like no matter what your site is, google likes to adjust your serps so that you get a certain amount of traffic from them and no more... maybe they want us all to start spending money on adwords or something, they act like they are doing us a big favor if they send us any socalled "unpaid" traffic

    I don't trust Google and their overall plans for the internet over the next few years

    One of my blogs has dropped position too and from what I have heard Google have recently completed rating sites and some are up and some are down. I have no idea what they base thier decision on because I have not posted to the blog they increased the rating on and have been posting a lot to the one they dropped the position on. Perhaps we should all do a little SEO research do you think.

    Try to improve and build on the internal link structure connecting all your pages. That would help. Basically google nowadays are constantly tweaking their algo. It's not that they are making it harder for website to achieve ranking but what they are doing is to ensure fully deserved and qualified sites be at the top.

    It's day 5 and I don't receive any traffic from Google for my 18 months old site. Last time this happened to me was more than a year ago. I hope it would be out of sandbox in 1-2 weeks

    Even my website lost some traffic from google. 2 or 3 days ago, google was indexing my Forum in merely 25 mins and getting them ranked in first 10 results (for some topics) but now, it has been past 24 hours when google indexed my forum.

    I think there is any kind of google SERP mistake or update, one of my photo blog getting 500+ hits per day but yesterday its less than 50.

    Hope it will solve soon :D

    that is terrible

    what does google think they are doing? ruining people's hard work

    google is so screwed up, they are giving pr3 and traffic to some dumb sites that are 3 months old and lowering pr and traffic for some good sites that are over a year or two old

    they are really screwed up now and I hope they fix it and go back to the way it was before
