Reply To: Expired domain rankings died overnight, anyone else?

From experience, realistically, yeah, I’ve seen it. Not even just with expireds either — stuff that was “fine” for months and then suddenly acts like it got flagged. The annoying part is it usually isn’t one clean cause. Crawl rate dips, a couple URLs stop getting touched, then rankings just fall off a cliff and everyone starts pretending it was the content all along. Sure, man. I’d lean more toward re-eval / footprint stuff than a pure hosting issue if it happened across more than one domain. Google’s been touchy lately. Just my experience.
