Reply To: Traffic dropped after the weekend update

Yeah, same vibe here. A couple of pages that usually pay the bills got nudged down and some deadweight nonsense is hanging around like it’s earned it. I’m not doing the “panic and rewrite everything” thing yet though. Weekend shuffles usually settle a bit, and half the time Google just seems to be testing weird combinations for no good reason. If it’s still ugly by midweek I’ll start checking whether anything changed on-page, internal links, or if one of those stupid plugins did something behind the scenes. The part that annoys me most is exactly what you said — the junk pages moving while the money pages sit there. That’s how I look at it.
