Organic searches are a roller coaster when should I get worried?

Hello Moz'ers

I know organic searches go up and down and there is no way to control that. When should I be worried about search results I.E. site is being de-listed or some other SEO problem

If I'm reading the screen shot right, I wouldn't be worried. Seems like normal to me.

If you're not doing anything black or grey hat that you're worried Google might not like, I'm not sure why you'd be worried about getting delisted or penalized in any way.

patrick_G  we aren't engaged in any grey hat or black hat practices we are kind of learning SEO as we go and trying to figure out if a new update from google is affecting us. Also scaled down our servers to smaller servers not sure if server speed affects SEO drastically or not

Then you have nothing to worry about as far as being delisted.

I doubt the server issue would matter, but do make sure your website loads as fast as possible. That is one factor that influences search results. But suffice to say the traffic sways up and down based on lots of factors from Google along with things like the day of the week, seasons of the year, holidays, etc. In my opinion you have nothing to worry about outside of simply steadily building your website traffic.
