Hey Rafi
Okay, I had a quick look at your analytics and really, I don't see a lot to worry about here.
1. Your main keywords that send traffic are still doing really well
2. Your organic traffic is down around 19% this month and there does seem to be a gradual decline across some of your big keywords.
I think what you are seeing here is nothing more than some new competition in your space and I see several sites doing what you are doing and doing it pretty well.
My advice would consist of four main points
- start adding more varied content
- start thinking about building traffic from a wider range of keywords
- look at ways to re-engage with previous visitors (social etc)
- consider content that you can use to earn links or a link building strategy (content based - not something you just outsource)
Without doing this properly and anointing all the various algorithm updates I don't think you have a penalty as such - you are just facing some increased competition.
Forget about SEO almost, focus on content, try to have a broader focus, engage people who visit and bring them back, look at content you can use to build some buzz and links, look at content you can use to incite some viral activity.
Focus on your site basically and don't worry that Google is working against you.
Hope that helps!

I really appreciate your reply, my blog is on the 1st page for 2-3 key phrases on google and other search engines. But for some reason that I can't figure out , serp and visitors are decreasing for the last 3-4 months. Need expert's assistance and suggestion what I should do.

Content seems good but the link profile is a bit questionable:
Really, need more info. What was driving traffic? If it was a couple of key phrases that you had a bunch of anchor text links for then... the links may be as far as you need to look.
Can you provide a little more info on just what was driving your organic traffic?

SERP Ranking
Hi everyone, I'm struggling to figure out why our website has dramatically changed and is ranking far worse than ever. We were top for around 10 keywords, and had over 4 high traffic keywords in position 1. I think the website needs updating (as it's magento 1.7), and that the competition is increasing. Taking our eye off the ball has been a huge mistake. Could anyone advise on what the next steps would be to start increasing to a better serp rank? These two are own main ranking pages:

Why does our main keyword keep dropping?
Hey Guys, We've seen an alarming drop in our main keyword for our website. Our biggest driver of traffic has always been the search term 'gifts for men' which we commanded the top spot for a while, but have always been in the top 4 for. Recently (in the last 3-4 months) we dropped to 6 and as of last night we dropped down to 9th. We still rank number 2 for 'gift ideas for men'. Both search terms point to this page: GIfts For Men Nothing onsite or technically has changed, and there is consistently new content in the form of products being added almost daily. We hit a manual action back in October of last year and I'm concerned that the toxic links (that we didn't create mind you) we disavowed may have been unnaturally boosting this page and now we're dropping significantly because they're gone. Any ideas on how we can curb this concerning trend? Thanks a lot

Sudden drop in index, is this a bug?
We haven't made any sort of changes to the website recently and we had a 10% drop in indexed pages. I know there is rumors of a bug, has this happened to anyone else?

Can a home page penalty cause a drop in rankings for all pages?
All my main keywords have dropped out of the SERPS. Could it be that the home page (the strongest) page has been devalued and therefore 'link juice' that used to spread throughout the site is no longer doing so. Would this cause all other pages to drop? I just can't understand how all my pages have lost rankings. The site is still indexed so there's no problem there.

Big drop in traffic on 18 Oct
Hi mozzers, One of my client’s sites has a big drop in traffic. The site is topdealshotel.com. The drop was in 18 Oct and I know that there weren’t any algo changes. The site has 20+ language versions all optimized properly for all languages. In june I made some big changes in site’s structure and I also changed all URLs. After these new improvements the organic traffic started to grow naturally and very good, but dropped drastically in last 30 days. Unfortunately I couldn’t 301 old URLs into new ones and in WMT at crawl stats I have almost 2 million 404 errors. The site has many hotel pages with content that is from hotelscombined.com, but we also add our own content for all pages. In city pages we have unique content, written by our copywriters. I also made a reconsideration request and there was no manual penalty. I do not have any idea for this drop in traffic. Do you have any suggestions?

Sitelinks (breadcrumbs) in SERPs
Hi there, I have a .co.uk & .ie website both have the exact same content, only differences is the UK website is selling the product in pounds and the Irish website is selling in Euros plus both websites have different contact numbers. I decided to use rel canonical on the .ie pointing to the .co.uk website as I think it was having an issue in my SERPs for the .co.uk website in Google.co.uk, anyway since doing this, I am seeing strange things happening in SERPs for my keywords, for example if you click the link below, my website is number 2 for 'hot flushes' if you hover over or click on 'health or 'menopause' in the breadcrumbs in SERPs it takes you to the .co.uk website, is this normal?

Why do SERP Results ( Rankings ) differ from country to country ?
Hi, I have been doing seo for this client based in Sri lanka for almost 8 months now. Since we started SEO we had set up geographic target setting to UK through google webmaster tools. At the moment Site is completely ranking higher on google uk & other countries except Sri Lanka . On Google.lk site doesn't even come within 1st 5 pages for keywords which are ranked on1st page in other countries ? What do you think about this ? How does it happen ?
