Things have been going well this month.  On track to break $200 in commissions, and things could not be happier.  My bounce rate is staying around 50-60%.  Each day this week, I was beating the previous weeks visits by 20% or more.  All signs were looking up.

Then disaster struck.  I noticed for the past 2 days, my traffic is falling.  hmm.  Not sure if it is the new google algorithm, but things started slipping.  On one keyword I went from 7/8 position to 20.  On another I went from 7 to 15.  Basically, on every keyword I was getting traffic on, I fell off of page one google.  Not sure why.

I started implementing some marketing strategies last night and today.  Hopefully these will help bring me back, but how quickly.  I am considering actually paying for some targeted traffic if this does not turn around by next week.

For the past 1.5 weeks,  I was seeing 15-20 organic visits a day by this time of the day.  Today I am down to only 3.  All in all, this is good.  It is forcing me to learn even more methods to build my business.  I was starting to think this was simple, and had stopped learning because what I had was working.  Now I need to add some more tools to my toolbox.

Anyone have any suggestions?  If you would like to see the site in reference, Bread Maker Reviews is the site.  I was ranking first page on 4 different buying keywords, now all page 2.  I will overcome this, just going to take some time.  The one thing I hate about SEO is that the results are not immediate.   I have been busting my hump since last night, and probably will not see fruit for a week or more.  Oh well, at that point I will be back stronger than ever.

I will keep you posted.  I need to get back on top.   A taste of success has made me a rabid beast.
