All I Want For Christmas Is For Google To Quit Dropping My Website

I’m an easy person to please. I don’t ask for much. My wish for Santa is that Google would quick picking on my one “afflicted website” that they’ve been picking on for over a year, and just leave the damn website in the rankings where it belongs. Why do I think the website should rank? Because it’s been built page by page by hand with all original content, and naturally should rank for 100s and 100s of “long-tail” search.

Google has been harassing my one site for over a year. They drop the whole website. I mean 95% of my traffic leaves. It’s like the website fell off the face of the Earth. It always happens unexpectedly and inexplicably. I have no idea exactly why it happens, but it’s happened so many times this year that it really did affect the earnings of the website. $X,XXX should have been $XX,XXX.

Every time the website drops, I run a series of checks to see what’s happening, and technically, this time, I can’t find a single reason why this could be. So all I can do is sit back and wait and see when it recovers.

This is the reason you end up running 10 or more websites when you become a full-time internet marketer. It’s just too damn risky to think that one of your websites won’t fall. Almost all websites seems to experience some off-periods as it pertains to Google, no matter what efforts you take.

If you’ve experience a drop in Google, I suggest you try out the Xenu LinkSleuth which has been around for years and will spider your whole website to find broken links. If you use any sort of template, this problem could become exacerbated quickly and multiply indefinitely.
