Google Is Starting To Love Me Again
I do not have a clue what happened. Yesterday, Google started to send me search results again. My traffic is picking up. I was over sixty on Sunday and over one hundred on Monday.
You have probably heard me complaining the last little while in more than a few postings. It all began with Where Did All the Traffic Go?. Regardless, it helped me to look back at the basics again and submit to a few article directories and such.
It was kind of funny. John Chow had an article on his blog titled Google Updating Alogorithm. He was just knocked out of the top search results as well and posted an article on it. He was on it within a few days and he was back to the top. He won't disclose what he did however. You can read about his search results comeback in his article Taking back the Number 1 For Make Money Online. The only thing he said was Google webmaster tools is your friend!
Checking Out Google Webmaster Tools
After that, I logged into my Google webmasters account and sure enough there was some interesting things. I had two link errors for pages that could not be found. This was just my own fault for not checking. I didn't think this would affect anything however. The second piece of evidence was that Google said they have no indexed my site since April 28th. That is a very long time ago and coincidentally, a few days before they stopped all my search result traffic.
Why they started to send traffic again I don't know though. I fixed my broken links yesterday, but the traffic picked up two days ago. Hopefully it is here to stay, but the next time I might just fire off an email to Chow and see what he has to say.
