Hi Iskender
I'm sorry to hear about what happened to your site.
I Agree with Dan's opinion: Had your site been sandboxed, you would not find it in the SERPs.
Check out the Mozcast http://mozcast.com/, which tracks the changes in Google's search algorithm. Maybe there is a match between the moment the algorithm changed and your rankings fell.

This is not a 'sandbox'. A site that is being affected in this way won't show any results in the index for a period of time. If you've dropped to page 6 all of the sudden, this is more likely a penalty. The example of the keyword you search for makes it sound more like an EMD(exact match domain) penalty if there is one.
Anyway, as Andy said, if it's a penalty then you would probably have been advised in Google Webmaster Tools - although it's possible that you wont get a notification if it's an EMD penalty.

Hi Iskender,
Do you know if you are being penalised by Google? The free Google Webmaster Tools website will shine some light into this.
I wouldn't imagine that these would have any major implications to your ranking but some of your inbound links to seem a little bit spammy to me (in particular some of the blog comments). If that's been part of your SEO strategy, I'd advise against it going forward - just in case.

If website users don't accept GDPR cookie consent, does that prevent GA-GTM from tracking pageviews and any traffic from that user that would cause significant traffic decreases?
I've been doing a lot research on GDPR impact and implementation with GTM-GA for clients, but it's been 12 months since GDPR has gone live I haven't found anything on how GA traffic has been impacted if users don't accept cookie consent. However, I'm personally seeing GA accounts taking huge losses in traffic since implementing GDPR cookie solutions (because GTM/GA tags aren't firing until cookies are accepted). Is it common for websites to see significant decreases in traffic due to too many users not accepting cookie consent? Are there alternative solutions to avoid traffic loss like that and still maintain GDPR compliance? It seems to me that the industry underestimated how many people won't accept cookie consent. Most of the documentation and articles around GDPR's start (May 2018) didn't foresee or cover that aspect properly, everything seems to be technically focused with the assumption that if implemented properly most people would accept cookie consent, but I'm personally not seeing that trend and it's destroying GA data (lost traffic, minimal source attribution, inaccurate behavior data, etc). Thanks.

Google Analytics Landing Page Report Discrepancy
I have noticed that when I run a landing page report and use the advanced option so I can view only the landing pages that include a particular string in the URL, have noticed that I in the report, the graph at the top will say one thing, but the data below says something else. For example, the graph for one particular search shows 200 Impressions, but the info below says 700 impressions and 610 clicks. Anyone seen anything similar or have any ideas why? Thanks! Craig

Use Google Spreadsheet for Top Keywords Report
I've been using the super-awesome Google doc described here http://www.seomoz.org/blog/custom-reporting-using-google-analytics-and-google-docs for all kinds of reporting and I've customized it quite a bit. But I can't figure out how to feed text-based fields from GA into this doc. For example, can I make it so this doc spits out top 10 keywords? Thanks!

Distribution of SEOMOZ Ranking Metrics across all Monitored Websites
Hi, I'm looking into building a tool which would incorporate SEOMOZ ranking metrics and I have a few questions with regard to the ranking data which will help me develop it correctly. I have done a few searches, for the information but haven't found an answer to these questions on seomoz - if they exist somewhere then I would be grateful if you could point me in the right direction. 1/. When looking at the values of metrics such as MozRank and DA, is there any information on how this values are distributed amongst the ranked website - EG The mean / median values of DA and MozRank etc of all websites monitored is X & Y . If there were any distribution graphs for these values then even better. 2/. Along the lines of the above - are there any online resources showing similar information for google PR? 3/. What is the calcuation used in the scale of MozRank and DA - ie We have a scale of 1-10 for these values - be we also know the scale in not linear but logrithmic - ie Double the Links of a DA 5 website and you would not end up with a DA 10 website - so what is the calculation which defines the scale. A WBF about google PR by Rand indicated that a value of between 8-9 is used in Google PR - but what about the values used for DA and MozRank etc? Many thanks for your help
