Hi community! Basically i ranked with certain keywords on google for my website, but now that i checked, none of the keywords appear nowhere... wtf happened? It's like im shadowbanned or something... I even tried most used keyword for my website which appeared on page 1 and now it's gone..? Anyone have a clue?
 
I dunno. But i noticed for my new website that when i search for it now on my google its like page 5 or 6 (thought we only had 3 pages now though?) but anyway. my traffic is still the same roughly, and some days much better than when I first started as ranking 3/2. I think google personalises your results more than ever before. For others my keyword is still popular, but FOR ME, its page 5. lol

I actually just checked, and on another browser, google again, i'm page 2. So yeah. I would just add your site to free ahrefs webmaster, and check things there. Although, its not perfectly accurate, you can still get alot of good data from it, that shows your site is still functionining.

Might be a variety of reasons like Google shuffle—algo tweak, competitor surge, or tech hiccups like noindex or slow crawl. Have you peeked into Search Console for manual actions and impressions drop, then double checked pages are still indexed and loading fast?
 
Can you recommend me some free ahrefs? I feel like my website is totally shadowbanned
 
Could be a Google update or a tech issue, so check Search Console, indexing, and any recent site changes

It sounds annoying, but this is usually not a "shadowban." Changes to Google's algorithms, problems with indexing, or competitors outranking you can all cause your ranks to plummet quickly. First, look for coverage mistakes or manual activities in Google Search Console. Then, look at your site's performance, recent content changes, and backlink profile. A tiny technical problem, such sites that won't load or missing backlinks, might change your ranking a lot. Stay calm, work through the problems one at a time, and your positions can get better.

It could be a temporary drop caused by a Google update, indexing issue, or possible penalty. Check Search Console for any errors or manual actions, and ensure your content and backlinks are still in good shape.

The most common reason for sudden keyword disappearance is an algorithmic adjustment, particularly from a Google Core Update or Spam Update.
If your rankings dropped all at once, it’s likely your site was algorithmically devalued, not manually penalize, Sometimes, changes to canonical tags, robots.txt, meta robots, or URL parameters can make Google deindex or prefer a different version of your pages.
 
Could be a temporary deindex or algo filter, check Search Console for coverage issues or manual actions. Sometimes Google tests fresh SERPs, and rankings bounce back after a few days.
 
It could be a temporary ranking fluctuation or a Google algorithm update check Google Search Console for any issues or penalties first.
 
rankings dance all the time but full disappearance usually means indexing broke or you got filtered check robots txt and search console first

It is normal. The rankings will fluctuate. To maintain rankings, you have to keep doing seo which is basically creating new backlinks.

check for recent updates
indexing issues
or technical problems in Search Console.
 
It sounds like your site might have been affected by a Google algorithm update or indexing issue. I’d suggest checking Google Search Console for any manual actions or crawl errors. Sometimes rankings drop temporarily, and focusing on fresh content, internal linking, and quality backlinks can help recover.
 
This usually happens after an update, indexing issue, or a soft penalty. Google may have re-assessed your pages. First check Search Console for drops, coverage errors, or manual actions. Also check if your content changed, links were removed, or competitor pages improved. Most cases recover once you fix technical issues and refresh the content. It’s not a full shadow ban "just Google reshuffling.” So, don't be panic, work consistently Bro!
 
Sudden keyword drops usually come from algo updates or technical issues, so first check for indexing/crawl problems and recent Google updates before assuming anything else.
 
Hey! Don’t worry, this happens sometimes. Google rankings can drop for many reasons—algorithm updates, site changes, or just normal SERP fluctuations. First, check Google Search Console for any warnings or penalties. Make sure your pages are still indexed. Also, remember rankings can move up and down, especially for competitive keywords. It’s probably not a “shadowban,” just a temporary drop. Keep an eye on your keywords for a few days—most of the time, they bounce back once things settle.
 
sounds like a soft algo hit or lost trust signals. google doesn’t “shadowban,” it just drops relevance fast when algo spots footprinted links, over-optimized anchors, or weak clusters. check canonicals, index status, and backlinks. small cleanup + rebuild internal links, rankings often return.
