Post October 21, 2022 Spam Update – Struggles, Strategies, and the Road to Recovery = FAILED
 

Has your site been affected by the October 21, 2022 Spam Update? Have you managed to recover, and do you have any success stories to share? My site has been hit, dropping from 10k daily to 50 traffic a day. I used to earn $150-$200 daily before October 21, and now it's down to $1-$3. I've tried everything I know for SEO, but my site isn't ranking despite daily indexing of all my posts.

This is an excellent topic of discussion for the board.
Post more info or exact questions so the techs or SEO experts here can jump in to give you pointers or feedback/criticism.

Thanks O MARINA - that was my first thought - where is the friggin site so I can take a look at it and see what's going on. Solidguy if you want to reach out to me on skype I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can find the problem. I am assuming you have analytics and search console as well.

Did you mean the Oct 4, 2023 spam update or the one from Oct 2022? If you haven't recovered in a year and saw a 99% drop in traffic, then its time to change your tactics. What's your url?

My sites tanked also. They will never recover. I seen people reg my old domains and they let them drop because I'm assuming some new google trust score?

You clearly saw that i wrote 2022. And yes I know the new spam update together with another big core update this October 2024

Once Google penalizes a site, it will never recover, no matter what you do. So, be careful when buying old domain names.

No need, I know SEO more than half of the guys here

But if you guys know cyberbump.net before the 2022 spam updates, that my site biggest competitor before. But the site is dead now

Oh ya only half though. I don't know them all. They should post more about business.
