      I got caught up in a disaster of a website that consumed 3/4 of a year, all the while our SEO was put on the backburner with only occasional "massaging" to keep it going. Now our traffic has dropped almost 25% along with our incoming calls.

      Our rankings have remained steadily good- medium but definitely not bad during this period.

      My question: Who else has had this experience and how long did it take to rebound?

        Hi Kevin,

        When you mention "a disaster of a website that consumed 3/4 of a year" are you referring to a site redesign? If so can you provide a little more info?

        Thanks,
        Matt

          Yes, it was a bad decision to hire a website design company. I have since taken the site away and built it on a custom platform.
