Traffic drop with no explaination

[Zachary_Russell]

Hello Everyone,

I made a post a few months ago about one of my sites, Poker On A Mac dropping off the face of google. I found out that it was hacked, and redirecting traffic from google to other, pharmacy websites. Doing some research, I found out it was the WordPress PharmaHack, and we ended up recovering from it.

Now, since October 23rd traffic has went down again mainly organic traffic, I tried to see if it was hacked again, with the same thing and their was nothing I noticed. I was wondering if anyone could give me any insights as to why this happened?

Thanks

Zach

Site still seems to rank #1 for "Poker on a Mac" query. Site search reveals lots of indexed URLs from the Pharm hack. I recommend removing these URLs via Webmaster Tools. As far as investigating the traffic drop, take a look at your top landing pages via search for the week before and compare to the data following the drop on the 23rd. I bet you'll be able to find some sort of pattern that will enlighten you a bit.

Okay will do, is their an efficient way to remove all of these links at once? From what I se WMT only has a 1 link at a time option, and we have like 9,000 to remove.

I looked at the top pages, and it looks like the traffic (and everything else) is down across the board. Do you guys have any other suggestions as to why this could be happening?

Thanks for you help

Okay after some research the only thing that I have found that has changed since the 23rd is an increase in missing meta descriptions, around 700 of them. Could that impact SERPs
