Re: traffic drops on websites

Thanks folks, doesn't seem to be much of a problem here so I'll pass on
responding in an article in Q&T.  In case some of you have some traffic
issues - Panda is about great content and Penguin is about "problem"
linking (more or less)  So increasing the value of the content is step one
and step two seems to be cleaning up poor outbound and inbound links (for
example get rid of those blogrolls or turn them into nofollow tags as every
page on your blog sprays out a ton of links - not going to be really
helpful to those being sprayed or to you.  Other than that - use Google's
webmaster tools to sort out links and problem areas. And if that's all
computer Greek - go back to creating superb content. :-)
