@ensonc Hello,

I haven’t noticed a disappearance of some articles in the SERP, just a significant drop in my site’s ranking on the main keywords.

Good luck in finding out the cause and resolving your site’s situation!

Hello ensonc,

Following your request, I think I’ve found the reasons for my site’s downfall.
First, the site was too slow because the CSS wasn’t optimized, then it suddenly dropped after a Google algorithm update.

This may be the case for you too ? As a major Google update took place recently.

My site is still struggling to climb back up the rankings, because even though I’ve been able to solve the slowness problem, I still need to optimize the page content, and that takes time.

Best regards

Thanks a lot for these suggestions, I’m going to follow them ??

Thank you very much for this reply and for your analysis.
Do you know how such a poor result can happen so suddenly?
About 6 months ago, I worked a lot with an SEO expert to improve the SEO of my site, and since then, the position of my site was increasing well. At the beginning of May, it was in 12th position on the main keyword, and suddenly, at the end of May, it was around 50th position!

Thank you very much for your reply,
I will continue to look for the cause of my problem.
Best regards

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

Yes it’s right, I contacted Google ADS because I had a direct contact with a person who works there, but my problme concerns a n organic SEO. Google support (non “ADS”) only have a help forum to which I turned but got no response.

For the past two months I’ve been looking into all possible Google support, I’ve also contacted my SEO websmaster who has no explanation for my problem as well.

Now I don’t know who to turn to, and since Google ADS support has “investigated” (according to their answer) and told me it was a WordPress problem, I decided to ask you for more information. But I understand that it would be far less likely to be a WordPress problem than any of the other possibilities.

I’ve read on help forums that several people had SEO problems with their site following a Yoast update in May. As I also use the Yoast extension for my site, could the problem be coming from this appplication?

Thank you for your reply.
Here are the attached screenshots of the email exchange with Google support (sorry they are in French).

Hello,

Thank you for your quick response.

Yes it is right, this is about the three columns mentioned and I don’t use TablePress.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I will contact my theme support.

Best regards

Thank you very much for your quick answer and your help !
