301 redirect and drop domain

return in the serp after 301 redirect

[anthoduff]

Hi,

I have been hit last year by a very large drop in serps, about 80% loss of trafic, for duplicate content (2005/09/25), return after 301 redirect at the end of the year with no other changes(2005/12/25).

This year, I ve been hit the 27th of March, for apparently no reason (no more duplicate, respect of GG guideline etc...) but I can see like for the first drop that the site: query return me an another page that my home page. The day before the drop, the site: query return the home page, the day after when it's an internal page in first position, trafic has gone, positions too.

So after more than two months of dramatical loss of income, I decided to take the .eu domain name and to make a 301 redirect.

Since 4 days, the redirection seems to be very well taked by GG and recovering trafic and position on all datacenters... trafic is passed from 10% to 80%.

Disconcerting fact : the site: query (the day after the redirection) return my home page in first result... trafic follow...

I cross all my fingers now... :)

(Sorry for My english guys)
