Reply To: Traffic tanked after yesterday’s crawl

Yeah, same old mess. I wouldn’t pin it all on the crawl either unless the logs show something really weird. If clicks tanked but impressions are still hanging around, that usually smells like a swap/rewrite/snippet issue more than “Google crawled and murdered the site.” Which, honestly, is almost worse because it’s harder to pin down. Also, Den’s point about logs is still the only sane place to start. Everything else is just guessing in the dark.
