90% drop in organic Google traffic

[josan420]

Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum. My Website example.com is 5 months old. From 26 October Organic traffic of My website are dropped almost 90%. until 25 oct i was getting 250 to 350 unique visits. But now i am getting just 50-70 Visits daily. There is no problem with google Analytics code as Pageview in adsense are also dropped. On Google webmasters Tool, my site was getting daily 1200 to 1500 appearance but now just 100 appearances.

I can't understand what is the problem...

Please help me, to recover this loss.
Is it possible that my website affected by Google Penguine update?

You have a website that is just 5 months old? How have you developed backlinks and traffic to your website? Simply publishing a website will not give you long term traffic from Google. Google wants to see many different quality signals.

Thanks for reply. At beginning my site got many visits from pinterest, almost 40%. Then it started getting traffic from Google. It was getting daily 100-120 daily visits from Google. Many of articles were appearing on first page. But now articles appear in search page but on are on page 7,8 or 10.

If it is the site that is mentioned in your profile, then you have a lot of DMCAs to raise (if it is your own content) as it appears on other sites.

I think Google penalized my site because of too many Indexed page. 2 months ago I Migrated my site from Blogger to Wordpress. Since i migrated to wordpress it's traffic increased 3 times. but later, after 1 month it dropped.

Last week i noticed that there many links indexed in google similar to this one:
example.com.com/search?updated-max=2014-06-20T03:06:00-07:00&max-results=1&reverse-paginate=true
all links of this type are = to 404 page not found, which has bad impact on SEO
Now i removed more than 200-250 links from Google index using webmaster tools.

You can remove the URLs in GWT, but they will not stop trying to index those pages until you tell them to no-index /search pages. Don't block them in robots.txt if they are no-indexed or Google won't ever see the no-index requests.

The easiest way to control no-index and limiting what is in your sitemaps when you are using WordPress is by means of a plugin. The yoast seo plugin is popular for that. Because Wordpress shows the same content in many ways (using /tags/ and /archives/ and /category/ for example) you want to be sure that Google is only allowed to index one version of your pages or posts.

One other thing - make sure the old migrated Blogger site is gone and if possible, redirecting (301) to the new site. Did you have your Blogger site listed in your GWT Account? If so, have you taken steps in GWT to indicate the move? If you visit your old Blogger site, does it take you to the new WP site?

I already blocked /search in Robot.txt so google will not crwal it agian.
I am using Yaost Seo plugin since i migrated to wordpress.
I am using same domain name and i redirect(301) old blogger site Old Blogger site to new wordpress blog since i migrated to wordpress.

now only Posts, some selected pages, categories, and Image will be indexed by google.
I already cleaned and de-indexed every url which point to 404 page.

You still haven't addressed the issue of copied content. Having it on Facebook etc is not helping.

Did you write these articles, or did you copy them onto your site?

I haven't read through the rest of the thread, but from the initial post it sounds like the "honeymoon" is over -- Reading about how new sites/pages often get a boost then drop might help in understanding things and how Google's rankings work.

1. What does it mean Honeymoon is over?

2. I am not copying articles from other websites. To be honest, when i started on Blogger, i was copying 100% of article from other website. but later i stopped copying and deleted many old articles which i copied.
I am sure there are still some old articles which are copied from other site, but i am making changes in them or completely deleting them.

G will give a new site a boost and show you the type of traffic you could get if your a good little webmaster - it then takes a lot of it away - your battle is now beginning

The reason I ask is because...
1: If the ones on your site right now (as in your profile) and were copied, then Google may see that you are not the original, and demoted you as such.
2: If you did write the articles, then you need to get the copies of it removed from the other sites, as they will be harming you.

We do not do reviews here, but I will say this. I did a quick search on one of your homepage articles, and found it on forums and Facebook - which ranked higher than your site did.

Well Thanks for suggestion. It was my stupidity, because it was me, who posted them in various forums to get new Visits. I will try to delete them.

Thanks
