Significant Drop In Traffic Early April

[inhouseseo]

I had a downward slide in Google organic traffic at the beginning of April (around 8-10th). It doesn't coincide with any of the algo updates, and I can't figure out what the cause it.

Has anyone else experienced such a drop?

Any suggestions as to finding the source/cause?

TIA

Hi

Do you have a manual penalty in webmaster tools, also Google I believe on average do around 3 updates a day to their algorithms, so it is always possible you was hit by a tweak.

Did you make any changes to your site around this time, did someone in your development team accidentally stop bots from crawling etc.

Did you get any new competitors around this time, if you private message me your url I will take a look and see if I can spot anything and come back to you.

Thanks

No, never got a clear answer. Still not sure what the problem is.
