      Hello!

      Today when I check my blog site search on Google, I can't see my blog home page. Though all my posts and pages are still on the Google results. Today I published a test post, then it also indexed by the Google less than 3 minutes. Still I can't see any traffic changes.

      10th of April (yesterday)  when I perform a site search (site:mydomain.com), I saw my site on the Google search result.

      Today I installed the Ulitmate SEO plug-in and deactivated WordPress SEO plug-in. After a few hours I saw this issue. (I'm not saying this is the issue, I just mentioned it). In addition to that I never used any black hat SEO methods to improve my ranking.

      my site:- http://goo.gl/6mvQT

      Any help really appreciate!

        It seems you need to have your JS turned on in order to view the site.  I don't think that's a very good idea. Is this a new "feature" on your site?

          Thank you Chris your reply.

          I use that plug-in, because some blogger copy paste my blog post. Therefore I use "WP Content Copy Protection" plug-in.  After I installed that plug-in, my visitors need to enable Java script to visit my site.

          I'll try to disable that plug-in.

            I guess this is my site issue. Today I check my site on Yahoo and Bing. I can't find my site on those search engines (earlier those sites shows my site). Can you please tell me what's going on there?

              I suspect the JS is preventing all crawlers from viewing your content.  It's likely Google has only indexed your homepage since you installed that plugin and that's why it's not visible in there results. if you left the plugin installed, all of your pages would probably loose visibility, as it seems has already happened with Bing.

              Leave  your plugin uninstalled for a few weeks and see if the pages don't start showing again in the search results.

                Now I have deactivated and uninstalled that plug-in.  After that I clear cache (W3 total and Cloudflare) and fetch as Google bot (on Google webmaster tools). Now I'm waiting for any changes. Hope if this is the issue, it will fix next few days.

                Still my blog posts are getting indexed within 3 minutes. Still no traffic changes. It's a weird issue.
