Diagnosing a Drop in Google Traffic - Part 1

Has your Google traffic dropped? In this episode Marie goes into great detail describing how you can assess a decline in organic traffic. Your losses may be because of a Google update but there are many other reasons. Marie covers technical issues, core web vitals, competitor research and much more. In the next episode, two weeks from now we will go into even further detail on how you can determine if your drops are due to a change in intent, relevancy or because of quality issues.
