Reply To: Traffic dropped after this latest update

From what I’ve seen, yeah, I’d still blame Google before I blame the plugins, unless that update touched canonicals/schema/output in some dumb way. If it’s just one post, I’d check impressions vs clicks first. Clicks falling off a cliff with impressions still there is usually SERP/snippet nonsense. If impressions tanked too, then yeah, something changed in rankings and it’s probably not your “basic WordPress setup” suddenly exploding. I’ve seen this a bunch lately. Annoying as hell, but not exactly rare.
