Hi All,

I have relationship website (blog)which was getting good traffic until two weeks back,all of a sudden the traffic just dropped, not sure what happened.

I checked my robots.txt its allowing everything, doesn't look like its hacked ( will do another check).


The only thing I remember changing is with regards to php redirects

I had some php redirects , I changed it to domain redirects.
I tried pingler couple of times which might have resulted in multiple pings since I use max ping press as well.

To keep the google love I was updating the site everyday.

Site hasn't dropped out of the google index but google has decided not to send traffic.

Any thoughts, I am completely stumped.

thanks in advance for your all your thought and possible causes.

Regards
Melvin

    Domain redirects where? in .htaccess or in your php pages or where?

    Can you check your backlinks in google.com/webmaster and see if the amount there drops drastically? It might have connection with your off-page SEO, not on-page

      Hi Ruddy,

      I had affiliate links which was an php redirect but decided to buy couple of domain names and then use that as my affiliate link.

      I checked my back links its stable but I haven't put much effort into building it off late.So it can be competitors growing too fast.

      Thanks again for your response.

      Cheers
