Queries:

1. My parenting blog traffic range is set fixed by Google, no matter what I do. Even in past, before March update my traffic was 4.5K unique visits a day for more than 1 year.

User engagement was good, number backlinks were not great but still regularly off-page SEO was ongoing.

2. Even today after March Update the traffic is stuck to avg 2K per day no matter what backlinks I get.

I have observed that If my new post starts ranking, Google stops favouring my old ranking post.

Is there anything which is obvious reasons to this control by Google?

Walk us through it here. What are you doing to those new posts? Are you backlinking the new posts and old posts simultaneously?

When you post a new post, what do you do?

I basically do the heading tags, image alt tags, keywords sprinkling while writing, metas, and interlink too. My clients site traffic got reduced by Feb month, and now we are linking the new posts, but no keywords are increasing and no traffic too

What I meant was that, when you post a new article, do you stop sending social signals and backlinks to the old posts?

Yeah, when I publish a new post, then I send the backlinks to the new posts only, not the old posts. I don't touch or link to old posts.
 
There was a Google update in Feb..may be your site got hit by that

Also traffic went down from 4.5 to 2k per day

Compare the landing pages of both period and see which post was giving you more traffic. This might give you an idea on what kws went down.

Currently as per my experience, if your site gets stuck then adding more backlinks wont do anything. All you can do is wait and see

p.s. run Ahref report to see the kws movements as well

The Client said this:

I always have a top 3-4 posts which are old, which are ranking, getting traffic and these mainly get backlinks.
In case of new posts, I watch if they get good response if yes (just like that new baby names) then it comes in my top to-be-promoted posts
Also, the traffic reduced after march update and not in Feb.
My query is not even very specific to my blog. I am seeing a behaviour by Google: It has set a bracket to traffic to my website, it keeps me in a specific strict traffic range.
So what does that mean: If my top 3 posts are giving me say 1.5K visits a day, then say my new post starts ranking then I am seeing the Google controls visibility to previous post. And traffic to these total 4 posts is still 1500, They share the visits but not add on. (Not for samek.ws)

I have taken the project for link building of his site, so need to rank and increase traffic of the site
 
Do you have installed Schema? It seems to be pretty important these days...
Also I think some quality .edu links will help (Harvard, etc) & some embedded links on your competition websites. If you can, ask them to quote some of your articles, or create a RSS Feed...

I have installed the schema on the website. Its an parenting site, so .edu links will help in that?
 
I think it is keyword stuck problem. Check and fix your on-page SEO from an experienced one.
