Hi,

I had redesigned my site pricegenie.in 2months back. The site is only 7months old now. I had changed URLs of inner pages(but have setup proper 301 redirects).

Since the past 1month i have had 80% drop in traffic. And i am not able to recover from this.

I haven't got any google manual action notifications.

Also when i search pricegenie on google, only the first result is my website. Rest all are spam websites.

Can any body help me find the problem.

Please help, thanks in advance.

    Mentioned website have 37k backlinks and it looks like in a months time you have been impacted with the penguin 2.1 , you can check the WMT and see when you see (exact date) the drop in traffic.

      the date of traffic drop is 1st Nov

      my traffic has gone down on bing as well. Do you think its still penguin 2.1?

      also if you check this link https://www.google.co.in/search?q=pr...m=122&ie=UTF-8

      only first/second url is of pricegenie, rest all are of some pharma websites. before it used to be all pricegenie links. any idea when this happens

        As you said,your site has been ranking as per your domain name. Can you tell me where your site was ranking for your keywords and where it is currently ranking?

      i have a price comparison website.

      so there are no articles as such.

      also my pages basically show comparison of prices from different websites.

      like a page for Nexus 5 would show the prices of nexus 5 across 10-15 different ecommerce sites.

      So not sure how to setup unique content here

            I am tracking all the keyword's position every week by finding them manually as well finding through rank tracker.
            After reading your posts, i thought you are aware with SEO so it would be easy for you to track them.
            I already mentioned my skype id in one of the post. You can send me the request there.
