I am struggling with my website big time. I have been so down that I have just stopped writing. This blog is probably the most I have written in months.

I guess the first questions would be...how many posts on your website, are you creating your content, and what sort of keywords are you focused on.

Is it currently getting traffic?

How old is the website?

Let us know a few more details here and we can give you some help here.

how many posts on your website?
100

are you creating your content?
Yes, but not lately. I have no idea which direction to go in.

and what sort of keywords are you focused on.
Hopefully low competition.


Is it currently getting traffic?
maybe 1 or 2 people a day...some days anyway.

How old is the website?
I think about 1year and a half, and yes I know I need more content but at this point, I am so lost without a direction.

I guess the next question is what is your URL? Were you ever getting more content, then it slowed? What was your reaction to the slow down, if it happened (ie, is that what caused you to stop creating content)?

URL: https://internetmarketingtoolsandprograms.com/

Yes, I was ranking and before it slowed to a stop, I was getting 50-100 people a day.

I don't know if you remember but Bing delisted my site after the 3rd month of my starting my site.
Then in Sept 2022 the google update thing happened. I think I wrote 2-4 articles and then I just got so depressed, And a lot of personal things were happening. Then the holidays. Then a lack of knowing what to do next.
So yes it was part of the reason but life got in the way too.

Yeah, this is likely because you stopped writing content...Google and Bing will often times make these updates, and then see how people react to them, and then give you your rankings back and then some.

When is the last time you published content? Your rankings are not just going to come back by "stopping" what you were doing to get them, though that is the natural reaction when we get frustrated that is what I see a lot of people doing and it will lead to the loss of all rankings.

I am working on more content now, but without a clear vision and a target audience I feel like I am not getting the right stuff down.

Another question. Should I start by adding more content or by fixing the content I already have?

I can see Kyle is giving you some great ideas; just follow what he is telling you and I think your traffic and everything else will fall into place.
We all go through some dark times with our business but there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Just get up and try again never give up.
Hope this helps
