Yesterday I noticed a fairly significant rise in traffic. Today, however, my traffic is dropping like a rock. I've also noticed that all of my hubs have been buried in the SERPS, completely. Has anyone else noticed something similar? Is there another update due about this time?
I read that 'G' sent out a new algo. Something about giving priority to 'paid' advertisers over organic searches. It will be felt by many I guess.

Even so, in the serps for my best performing hubs all the organic searches are still showing, except mine.

Hi Redberry, I saw it earlier on a webmasters forum. Feeling a little more positive because it appears that the new algo was only rolled out this morning, so perhaps, it's only a temporary situation.

Has anyone noticed a drop in their profile score after they unpublished a hub?My profile score dropped several points after I unpublished a couple of hubs that weren't generating sufficient traffic, and were tagged with those dreadful half-moons. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar...
