My website penalized? :(

4 page drop does sound like an algo penalty to me. How's your anchor text? Built any new links recently? Wait it out ~1 week and see where you stand.

my anchors is like
11% keywords
7% naked
7% another keywords with different page
5% another keywords with different page
4% naked
3% brand

I was a little suspect as anchor is not good. I also use PBN, If penalty because PBN, there is will be noticed in google search console?
yeah i will wait for now

Give it a day or two (or maybe a week).. 3 days ago, my daily UV dropped like about 30%-50% for 2 consecutive days.. Now they are climbing back, and see an improvement of about 80% from the usual daily traffic.
I also hope traffic recover or even higher

I had the same thing happen to me - 2 days later I got a manual penalty notice. Sounds like a penalty to me, hope I'm wrong.
Don't despair, if it is a penalty, improve your site to ensure it's less likely you receive a penalty in the future and clone the site to a new domain and start again.

hopefully not a penalty :(

I would just wait it out, your page hopping around in Google is normal, especially if it is relatively new (under 6 months)

my site is 1 years old

Did you drop across all your rankings or some?

Are your current rankings with kind of a cut off I.e. all moving to 40 (for example), but never higher?

If yet, you've been algo penalized.

i have over 30-50 keyword drop 2-60 on ranking,
mostly from page 1-2 to 4-7, there is no keyword on page 1 again.
it's almost my keyword drop.

how to fix it? :(

this is my ranking distribution:

I would also like to add that this week has been hectic for me as well. My keywords are just everywhere right now. Some drop completely and come back and then disappear again. Some are just dropping slowly and rising again. I have just been sitting here waiting, hoping that everything gets back to normal and things settle down. This has to be some kind of update because I have been hearing tons of people complaining about this as well. Just my two cents.

hopefully it's some update for better result
 
I'm quite surprised why so many people are giving shitty advises. I would say if you don't own websites or track the rankings of your websites you are not qualified to give advise on this matter. Anyone who has more than a few sites tracking can clearly see that for the last week the rankings are acting crazy.

hmm, it looks like Google is doing an algorithm update?
 
.

In my part of the woods I?m seeing strange drops/increases since mid September, which looks more links relevant than content relevant

It?s as if G00gle is testing something, then rolls it back to make changes, then rolls it out again?

To me it looks as if it?s much more than just a slow Panda, so much so that I won?t be surprised if it?s a new algorithm that combines Panda/Penguin[/FONT]
 
Have you been actively building links? have you removed or edited any content on the site recently? Have you
created any redirects? Did this just happen today or has it been a few days?
 
I actively build new links. High quality PBN and expired 2.0 as well as social signals to mix things up. I started having fluctuations about a week ago. I also think that google is testing. If I was a betting man, which I am, I would say they are testing the new penguin they announced would be out this year that has the rolling updates.
 
lmao all these BHW posers and their "I was #1" posts. At your peak you had 120 session. That's absolutely nothing. You weren't ranking for anything significant. You were ranking for a garbage query.
 
archon10 I can not say what everyone else is doing or what their #1 keyword peak sessions are but that is irrelevant and their spot im sure is important for them in some way or another so there is no way reason to belittle anyone. I can say that the particular query I am referring to is no garbage one.
 
There is no way someone has 120 sessions at their peak and is ranking #1 for anything significant. It's what we call "ranking for a garbage query."

Either that or he's a noob and thought he was #1 due to personalization. I don't pay attention to the lame ranking trackers. Most of them are wrong anyway. *edited* That's absolutely nothing. I have a blogger with no visibility, no link building, and she abandoned it for a while getting that same amount of traffic.

He never ranked for anything, so the "I was #1" is bs.

yeah i have been building links as usual, i'am edited content to be more great, redirect url from /this-is-good-keyword to /keyword (but it's only 1-3 post not whole post around 1-2 weeks ago) but the strange almost all the rankings drop
it's been today, but the last few days of traffic slightly down (check my attachment on 1# post)

Then it just sounds like the google dance, give it some time and see what happens, most of
the time your will see a significant drop before you shoot up past your previous position.
