Egg Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 My traffic suddenly spiked on March 6, and consecutively started dropping on March 7 to approximately a decrease 60-70% percent. Brutal... How about you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keb Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Did you received a manual action by chance? I know alot who have and been completely removed from Google. I'm in a few different niches adult & main stream - 3 out of 5 so far have seen declines. ~20% If you're interested - here is a list of some main stream sites the SEO Gurus on X/Twitter have put together that have received manual actions for using what they "Google" considers AI Spam and backlink spam and not adding any new value to the search engine - so they have removed their sites completely. https://nichesitemetrics.com/google-march-2024-ai-spam-manual-action/ Some of these sites were getting millions of hits a month and Goggle just removed their whole site. My tube sites don't seem to be hit too hard - yet - This roll out is suppose to take 30 days - then the next one May 5th. My blogs are the ones that have been hit most - so far.

Egg Posted March 10 Author Share Posted March 10 No manual action taken. I'm in the OF leaks scene, not sure if some keywords have perhaps been targeted in this update. My second tube, which is smaller, has not been affected for some reason, despite having many similar videos but different SEO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would see the notification in your Google Search Console under Manual Actions & Security - if you don't use that, and good way to confirm if Google has removed your site is to type site:yourdomain.com and see if anything comes up. If your result looks like this, your site has been removed, and you would need to go into search console, fill out the manual review and state what actions you took to fix the issues and ask to be re-indexed.

You had a lot more traffic than me to start with. I noticed steady decline during April and then little further change during May approx. When you say your site is "fast" - how do you define/measure this? What do you think is the future strategy for Google indexing now? In terms of off site, it seems to me that the backinks industry will be less useful perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
