      Wow, what great advice. I checked your list of known Google Updates and found nothing since January. So far everything I have looked at online don't mention any significant updates from April 9-10 of this year. Still scratching my head here.

          Silly for sure. To think that Google would demote a brand that has been around for over a decade like that.

            I opened a thread on the Google forum but only got one response and it seemed to miss the mark.

              I think I found the problem. Google was parsing javascript generated links as actual links even though they were not supposed to be added to the page until after the DOM loaded. As a result all user generated URLs to other sites became links. I have since removed the linkify plugin form the site and am hoping that will fix it.

                Same here. Lost 90% organic traffic after the Google update. My website has 5k monthly traffic before the update and now, only 20 users a day.
