    Large drop in traffic from google - any idea why?

    Starting April 24th I saw a very significant decrease in organic traffic from Google, and I can't figure out why. can anyone help out or offer some advice?

    On April 22nd I did upgrade my VBSEO to the latest version at the time, but I didn't see any other threads of others being affected in this way... so I'm guessing it's something on my side? But I'm not sure what.

    Did I maybe update something wrong? Is there any stuff I can check?

    The number of URL's indexed looks fine to me:

    Here's a shot of my analytics graph, for a long time I've been getting anywhere from 3 to 4k in visits a day, and now it's dropping to below 1k.

    Any help would be great. Should I just roll back to the vbseo version I had before and see what happens?

    Did you leave your config file writable?
