Is anyone losing traffic to their sites due to the Google shuffle? Most of my sites are down tremendously.
same here .... for quite some time now...google visits my home and category pages only. No deep crawl for a very very long time. For the last couple of month G all of a sudden shows 99 % of item-pages with caches dated between Dec 04 and Feb 05 and/or items added a long time ago have not been indexed at all. I am at a lost as to what caused aforementioned....and of course I get very little traffic from G.
I've learned that when this happens, it just means someone else has outranked you somehow, and thanks to google shuffle not happening sooner than it did, we probably didn't drop as fast as we should have. Time to build more links and optimize even better.
