DO you also think that google has penalized me?

It could be a google fluctuation. To be sure, try this: go in GSC and see top countrys that you get impression for that term. After that open an incognito table in a browser not chrome, switch the country to the one that you get most traffic and so on. Search you term again. If you find it than dont worry. If you dont find it in top 4-5 countrys, wait 2 weeks search again. If its back you are good to go, if not you need to find the problem that caused the drop. I Hope it helped you
thanks
it seems I don't have any choice except patience.
 
Where did you buy that one link that got your site penalized? I will buy two of those link and point it to my competitor :smirk:

no
for example, when I search for "best earbuds" I can't see my site. but when I search for "site:mysitename.com best earbuds" I can see it

were you ranking for these keywords previously?
 
I have the same problem as well. I hope you'll let us know when it's resolved, I'll follow up.
Do your all links have deleted from Google too?
What about the index?
Can you see your links when search in form of site:sitename.com ?
Did you have link building in recent few days?
 
How long has it been since you saw this traffic downtrend?

Did it just start when you posted this thread?

Because less than a month is not long enough!

If this pattern has been persisting for several months now, then, yes, the likelihood of Google penalizing you is quite high.

But it's probably not a manual penalty.

Chances are, it's an algorithmic penalty connected with their most recent update.

Please understand that if you're seeing a downturn in your traffic, you're not alone.

A lot of people on this and other forums are complaining about the most recent Google update.

It hit a lot of people like a ton of bricks.

Do yourself a big favor and do more interlinking using calls to action and your target keywords.

See if your pages show up in the SERPs as well as possibly enjoy some ranking improvements.
