Adwords Quality Score & Your SERP. Any correlations?

I had a ad running on adwords for one of my websites, and they penalized me for not following their rules, thus lowering my adwords quality score. About the same time it happened I noticed I was getting next to 0 traffic to my site (although normally it only used to get 5-10 as it was new). Is this because of adwords? Or just a coincodence?

Lol, thats the first I am hearing that. No offence bud - but really nothing related between both. Sorry about your adwords penalty though.

Are you using G**gle Analytics? I had taken all the adsense off of a couple of my sites....and kept the do not report clicked in Analytics....It seemed like a switch was flipped and my traffic disappeared....checked Analytics....the thing was back to reporting statistics so I got rid of it.....a day or two later...my sites were back on page 1...all getting traffic again. I thought it might have to do with my adsense scores not being high enough and analytics reporting together...anyway.....just my experience.


EDIT:

Was actually 5 sites not a couple actually. Seems like with analytics on and reporting the sites were on page 30....no analytics...right back to page 1...not new sites either...ones that had been solidly ranking for months and months and have stayed there now for a couple of months...
