One of my sites got hit pretty hard during the latest Google update. It lost about 30-40% of its US traffic and the future does not look bright considering that Google plans a worldwide roll-out.
Problem is, my site is a six year old heavy linked, popular Wordpress blog. I do not know why the article believes that it is low quality.
The only reason I came up with is the statement that low-quality pages on a site may affect other pages (think it was in the Wired article).
If that is so, would you recommend blocking and de-indexing of Wordpress tag, archive and category pages from the Google index? Or would you suggest to wait a bit more before doing something that drastically.
Or do you have another idea what I could to do?
I invite you to take a look at the site www.ghacks.net
