Traffic Cut in Half on October 14th – Youch!

by 7 Comments

Organic traffic to GarageSpin.com dropped by 50% on October 14th, and I have no clue why.  Don’t you hate that?

If you can explain why — perhaps a Google algorithm change?  a once high-ranking post no longer carrying weight? — I will send you the first copy of my very next song to you for free.  (Perhaps posting less than once a month contributed to the drop..?)  Ah well.  I usually try not to think too much about traffic, SEO, and rankings, but yeesh, that’s the most dramatic dip I’ve seen since I launched the blog in 2005…  Onwards and upwards.

[UPDATE:  Here’s one theory and another theory.  Many seem to be confused and bewildered as I am.]

    Google algorithm are changing so frequently for that we need to update our blog with quality content to have good ranking..

    Could be backlink devaluation or something more sinister. But rest assured, you're not the only one this happened too. Take a look at the pages that still get traffic and see if you can spot why they're active and other ones have fallen off. Good luck.
