Though my site is tiny it has seen a nice increase in the past few days. Guess I'm one of the lucky ones

Alright then wait a week to see the average bounce rate!
Just don't sue me since I am using lorem ipsum, pls I've wife and children to feed :(
 
With that bounce rate if I was G I would deindex it and sue you for your usless content.....god damn.....the biggest bounce rate I have is 12%.
Are you browsing your website with family and friends to keep the bounce rate at 12% :D I don't mind the bounce rate, i have 15-20 affiliate links on every page.

This is a very useless comment. 85%+ bounce rate is the normal bounce rate for most affiliate contents.

Speaking of bounce rates, prior to Dec 3rd my bounce rate was around 90% but after the update my bounce rate dropped to 8 - 12% hmm.. Ooo and yes, my traffic dropped by 50%.

You probably misconfigured Google analytics. Did you add the GA code manually before installing this plugin?

There's this feature in Cloudflare an Analytics add-on.

That GA plug-in also has an option to add the GA script.

You're probably using GainWP right?

The plugin adds a GA tracking script when you connect it with Google Analytics API via your Google account, so if you have configured Google analytics before, you're going to be getting false data.

You can't disable the script on GainWP.

Yeah, that's what I am using. Let me try something, I'll hit you up tomorrow.

On a different note, was your journey affected by the Algo Update.
 
Fed up with Google update every year. It's time to create a business not dependent on Google.
 
Most of my traffic comes from Pinterest so I'm not too worried. Still, here is my organic search traffic trend:

I'm currently here. Just in my case I LOST MAJOR KWS.. Nevertheless, I'll chill for a while.

And read the comments on this thread especially those from @splishsplash .
 
No drop. No improvement. Flat for me. Too early to call though. Need to wait at least another 7 to 10 days to see if there's a dance.
 
Latest google update impact my site by a lot, usally my site got like 2k pageviews and since december 2 the traffics dipped by 60%. what about you guys?

i just can say

Feel free to pm me your site and I'll tell you why you dropped.

Also, make sure you tell me which pages you lost on traffic on, and which keywords. This is very important.


**EDIT**

This update is a little strange and I'm noticing some slightly faulty rankings, so don't expect this to be "it". It'll shift around for the next few weeks as they fix it.

I'm noticing some irrelevant rankings and some double rankings on page 1. Definitely a sign it didn't completely go to plan.

Didn't work out. So what do I do?
