Your Traffic Dropped Off a Cliff
One day you're getting steady traffic from Google. The next, it drops 50-80%. Whether it's a manual penalty or an algorithm update hit, we've helped dozens of businesses recover. We can help you too.
Figuring Out What Happened
A traffic drop is terrifying. Your phone stops ringing. Leads dry up. Revenue tanks. And you have no idea why. The first step is figuring out exactly what caused it — because the fix depends entirely on the cause.
Sometimes it's a manual penalty from Google — they found something on your site that violates their guidelines and literally flagged it. Sometimes it's an algorithm update — Google changed how it evaluates sites and yours got caught in the crossfire. Sometimes it's a technical issue — a bad deployment, a broken redirect, a robots.txt change that accidentally blocked Google from crawling your site.
We've recovered sites from every type of penalty and algorithm hit. Panda, Penguin, Helpful Content, core updates — we've seen them all. The recovery process is different for each one, but the outcome is the same: getting your traffic back.
Types of Penalties We Recover From
Toxic Backlinks
If a previous SEO agency built spammy links (PBNs, link farms, paid links), Google eventually catches on. We audit your entire link profile, identify toxic links, disavow them, and build a clean link profile to replace the lost authority.
Thin/Duplicate Content
Google's Panda (now part of the core algorithm) penalizes sites with thin, duplicate, or low-quality content. We identify every problematic page — and either improve it, consolidate it, or remove it entirely.
Manual Actions
Manual penalties are when a Google employee reviewed your site and found a violation. They're actually easier to fix than algorithmic hits — once you address the issue and file a reconsideration request, the penalty can be lifted.
Algorithm Update Hits
Google rolls out core updates several times a year. If your site dropped after an update, it means Google re-evaluated your content quality, authority, or relevance. We analyze what changed and adjust your strategy accordingly.
Technical Penalties
Sometimes the cause is purely technical — a bad deployment blocked Google from crawling your site, a redirect chain broke, or a canonical tag pointed to the wrong page. We find and fix these issues fast.
Negative SEO Attacks
In rare cases, competitors attack your site with spammy links or hacked content. We identify negative SEO attacks and take protective measures — disavowing toxic links and securing your site.
How We Recover Your Traffic.
Diagnose
We analyze your traffic drop timeline, check Google Search Console for manual actions, review algorithm update history, and audit your backlink profile and content quality.
Clean Up
Based on the diagnosis, we clean up the problem — disavow toxic links, remove or improve thin content, fix technical issues, or address the specific guideline violation.
Reconsideration
For manual penalties, we file a detailed reconsideration request to Google showing what we fixed and how we'll prevent it from happening again. We handle the entire process.
Rebuild & Monitor
We rebuild your site's authority with clean, white-hat SEO and monitor your recovery progress. Traffic recovery can take weeks to months depending on the severity.
