Reply To: Google killed my best page overnight

Yeah, if it lined up with the cleanup I’d be looking there first too. I’ve seen “just trimming fluff” turn into “oops, we removed the stuff that was holding the page together.” Google can be dumb about that for a bit, then it catches up and the page just slides. If it was making money, I’d probably stop fiddling with it for a few days and see if it settles after recrawl. Chasing it every morning usually just makes you feel worse anyway. At least lately.
