Sudden decrease in SEO ranking

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have been experiencing a significant decline in organic traffic to my website, https://spatial-dev.guru, over the past month. Previously, I consistently received over 100 organic searches, primarily from Google. However, my SEO ranking has become increasingly volatile, and my site is no longer appearing in search engine results for specific keywords that were previously associated with high visibility. This sudden drop in rankings has raised concerns about potential SEO-related issues affecting the site’s overall performance. I am seeking assistance to identify and address these issues to restore and improve the site’s search engine visibility.

  • I understand your concern about the decline in organic traffic to your website. I want to assure you that there have been no platform changes or SEO issues affecting large numbers of sites on WordPress.com.

    On our end your site appears to be free of any issues that would affect performance, uptime, or Google’s ability to visit and crawl the site. With this in mind we recommend reviewing your site’s content and ensuring that it aligns with SEO best practices since google may be reacting to a content issue on your site, and not a technical issue. We cover best practices in more detail here:

    Additionally, you may want to consider checking Google Search Console to see if Google is offering any direct clues for why your site may not be showing up, and it’s also a good idea to consider updating your keyword research to make sure you are staying on top of changes in search habit by users of the search engines.

    If you are looking for guidance on an easy and free way to conduct keyword research we recommend the following webinar which is given by an SEO expert we invited as a guest speaker:

    Sadly Google is known to adjust things on their end silently, and it can often result in changes in your search visibility that are not related to the function of your site, so we recommend regular updates to your keyword research so you can stay in front of changes like this.

    Let me know if you have any more questions or if there’s anything else I can assist you with.
