Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Take a look at the Panguin Tool - http://www.barracuda-digital.co.uk/panguin-tool/ This tool uses the organic traffic from your GA account and overlays the dates of major Google updates. You can then see if a Google update resulted in a sudden drop in your organic search traffic. Once you know this you can look at what changed as part of that update and check this against your live site.
