I have been working on SEO since my site went live last August and have watched as I moved up from page 19 to page 2. How happy was I to finally think things were going in the right direction. How wrong was I, today I dropped to page 20. I just feel like I haved wasted the last 10 months. What I have I done wrong?
Jolly Phonics has dropped to page 24 now, although revision workbooks and Oxford Reading Flashcards are still on page 1/2. Jolly Phonics is the term I get most of my traffic from.
Ann, when I get back to normality next week, I'll have a look into it for you. At the moment - all my time is going on the Mall but I will be back to Web Mums full time from next Monday as I have lots of articles/blogs and new bits and bobs to add to WM's.
I imagine that the term Jolly Phonics is a little bit too generic. When you say you were on page 2 before, was it for a specific product? ie. Jolly Phonics Flash Cards? There are many reasons why this can happen and it is incredibly common and frustrating when it does.
Have you noticed a decrease in traffic since this happened? Also - do you know what search terms people are using to find your site?
I will go through it all in depth with you next week and have a good look at how we can get you back on the 1st page for some of your search terms.
