Getting 3000 visitors from Google daily.... will I lose them soon?

[irock]

Hi, I run a pretty big content site attracting over 3000 vistiors from Googgle daily. From what I read on this forum, it looks like I might be losing possibly half of these people pretty soon as Google likes to reindex everything every month. I have over 2300 pages on Google. What do I have to do to allow Google spider to cruise on my site so it can grab all my pages?

Thanks!

Hi irock,

Dont worry, you have nothing to do. The bot will come by itself, grab your pages and reindex them next month. Theorically, If you dont change anything to your site the visitors will keep on coming back, so will the bot.

Why worry, did you do any major changes?

Well, here's my reasons for MAJOR PANIC...

In last August 2001, I got axed. Cameback on Sept. On Nov., got axed again. On Jan.2002 got axed again. On August, came back to Google index.

This is WHY I wish to know if I will ever lose my traffic again.

To much at RISK here!

And to answer your question, I will NEVER NEVER do anymore stupid changes until I get my SEO approval.

Well I lost all my traffic this time because Google dident find the links to me even if they have PR7 and was indexed again, but I still got a PR0, you can never be sure about Google even if they are the best search engine.

Irock, there's no reason why you should be overly concerned about being dropped, although I understand completely why you feel vulnerable when so much traffic comes from one source.

Did you figure out why you were dropped the last time? And watch out for your "SEO approval" - readers of this forum have reported all kinds of risky behavior by so-called experts.

A little new at this and a little off topic but have a question regarding something similar to this comment. If you don't change anything on your site for the 'crawl period', would you theoretically expect your site ranking to be the same?

From my view I'd say no, reason being I personally see it as a competition amongst the 2 billion sites - so if you don't do anything and your competitors improve their sites, then yours would likely go down. Thanks :)

>a competition amongst the 2 billion sites

It usually is between about 10 to 30 sites - imo

Absolutely right Omni.

I have a lot of clients that wont listen to recommendations. They all wait untill they drop on second page before giving me a call. They wont listen neither at the fact it will take months to fix this traffic drop. They almost want me to fix this retroactively. :)
