Lost almost all organic traffic. Need some help.

Hi Mozers.
I blog about our son with Down syndrome (https://noahsdad.com) and you may remember me from this case study here on Moz. https://moz.com/blog/seventeen-ways-to-improve-your-blog-case-study
I was getting close to 100,000k a month in organic traffic to our blog, then it slowly started to decline to the point where I am not only getting 3k in organic traffic a month. So basically I lost all of my traffic. I honestly have no idea what is going on or why this happened. I know everyone is busy but would anyone be up for taking a peak into my GA and search console and seeing if you can figure out what may have changed and why my traffic dropped off so much.
Our website helps a lot of people so you'd be doing some good and it may even be a good case study post!
Thanks so much!

If your website has lost organic traffic, start by analyzing the drop using Google Analytics to pinpoint when and where it occurred. Check for recent Google algorithm updates that might have impacted your website's rankings. Perform an SEO audit to review your on-page and technical SEO, ensuring that your website content is high-quality and aligned with user intent. Use Google Search Console to check for any penalties that could be affecting your website. Additionally, optimize your website for mobile and speed, refresh outdated content, and work on building quality backlinks. If the issue persists, consider seeking help from an SEO professional to create a tailored recovery plan for your website.

I'm sorry to hear that you've experienced such a significant decline in organic traffic. It's worth noting that Google regularly updates its algorithm, and some updates may have a more significant impact on website rankings than others. The eight algorithm updates until August in 2021, including the Page experience update and Link spam update, may have played a role in your website's traffic decline.
I would recommend conducting a thorough analysis of your website's data, including changes in traffic patterns, keyword rankings, and user behavior. This will help you identify any potential issues and develop a targeted strategy to recover your lost traffic. If you need further assistance, it may be worth consulting with an SEO expert who can offer specialized insights and recommendations tailored to your website's specific needs.

Blog post generating irrelevant traffic. What should I do with it?
I have a blog post that has been generating more than 75% of my website's traffic month over month.-averaging about 1000 views a month. Awesome that so many people are finding and benefiting from this post, however it is really skewing my traffic. I have an 87% bounce rate, and I'm only ranking in terms related to this post as opposed to industry related terms. I'm not sure what to do with this blog post. I want to be able to better evaluate my website's performance and be sure I'm targeting the right audience in order to gain more leads. Would a 'noindex' or 'nofollow' be appropriate here? Thanks!

If my blog is on Wordpress, and I've installed the AMP plug-in, what do I need to do to get Google to start indexing all my posts as AMP pages?
If I add /amp to the end of any of my posts, I can see that the plug-in is working. It's been months since I installed it, though, and Google hasn't indexed any of the AMP pages. Am I missing a step?

I want to swop a site to an existing domain. i.e. it was http://A.com and now want it to be B.com...please help
The company I have started working for as two main websites. The main website (A) is out of date and not very functional but has the companies prime domain name. The other site (B) has their ecommerce engine. I'd like to make B the prime site i.e. take over A's domain name. Huge warning bells are going off regarding the SEO of this decision. Any advice or suggestions in how to go about this without destroying the company's SEO would be greatly valued.

Does a Google Map on the contact page help with SEO?
In regards to ranking organically for local search results (not google places), I'm wondering if there is any benefit to having a Google Map on my Contact page with our location pinned? If so, how important do you think it is?

Does a directory running on a subdomain help or hurt SEO on the main site?
I have a blog, with a directory on the subdomain: directory.fbforbusinessmarketing.com. Is that smart for SEO, as it gives the overall domain more traffic? Or bad for SEO because of the different topics and all those outbound links? I'd appreciate opinions. Thanks.
