Have you been hit by the Google Updates?
 

So I brought a couple of adult tubes from a guy off here..and since this transition I have noticed a huge drop in organic traffic. I'm assuming the latest Google Algorithm updates has something to do with this?

Has anyone else noticed a huge difference in organic traffic drops the last few days?

:2 cents::2 cents:

Nothing major here.

Ask the seller about where he purchased backlinks and if they have expired?

Just thinking out load :1orglaugh

My porn site was deindexed from 2,5k sites to 5 sites and stucks on 5 for 2 months. Wierd

google catched coronavirus

Are you sure he wasn't inflating stats with purchased traffic before selling it ?

I think he might of done but whats done is done now. He just wanted rid of these tubes as he was exiting the adult industry or some shit? I can see organic traffic is slowly drawing back to a norm. I think this has been a google dance

How old are they?

Going by whois, just under a year old.

Check archive.org and see how long they've been up and running. Check Ahrefs and Majestic to see how many backlinks have been lost.

Goes back until July last year. Also ahrefs shows 15 lost backlinks.

When buying sites, always safe to assume SE traffic, overall traffic, and $$ income will all be substantially less. Whether it be lied data, site transition losing power/traffic, inbound links or other problems. I only know this is 100% always the case, sadly.

That said, my network overall SE has been up a little this week, so far :)

shit in, shit out....aka tube overdose :2 cents:

1. did you transfer sites into a new server, do any kind of migrations -
2. have you checked for any big changes in links
- building from that, were there any other domains redirecting sending traffic this way
3. if you have historical traffic data or search console are you able to see a sudden drop in organic - if hit with any kind of google update the line will be quite clear

Looks like Google is dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to detecting PBNs

I'm going to investigate traffic more and look for better quality backlinks from now on.
