Reply To: Traffic tanked again for no reason

From what I’ve seen, yeah, that “Search Console looks fine but traffic is dead” thing is maddening. I’d still check the boring stuff first — plugin/theme updates, cache, robots, noindex nonsense, server logs — before assuming Google did the classic random slap. If you’ve been adding AI pages lately though, I wouldn’t ignore that either. Sometimes it’s not a penalty, just Google deciding it doesn’t like the batch. Either way, checking stats every 20 minutes is just self-inflicted pain.
