1st February traffic drop

**brack11** · 02-11-2012 02:07 PM

On my analytics page i see 70% drop of traffic on all my sites, all this drop comes from disappear of search /organic part. That is bad. I have found some explanations about this disappearance but there's no reason for all traffic to go down instead it should be compensated by the number of sources, but the visitors should stay the same.

My sites have all increased in SERPs and traffic since the first. Perhaps you had a lot of links deleted or Google changed their algorithm again which negatively affected your site.

Well, I googled about this issue and found quite a few people with the same issue. Some lost even more visitors than I am. But I also noticed in adsense panel the number of views of my sites didn't decrease after 1st, which means that analytics calculator of visits currently not showing the truth.

Interesting - perhaps they have blocked some form of traffic that they previously counted in Analytics? I'm not seeing any drops in Google Analytics for my sites - I also use Getclicky to track traffic and they are very close in numbers.

Getclicky? Didn't hear about that before need to try. Do you see any difference between those two services in calculations of your visitors?

Clicky is a paid premium service much like Analytics but with a better live visitor feed (spy mode) and real time stat tracking (day-by-day, unlike Analytics). I do see a very slight difference in the two with clicky having about 1,000 more visitors per day than Google. This isn't much, it would be like seeing 10 visitor difference if you only received 100 UVs per day.
