Traffic drop?

Well, I decided to transfer my site to WA because my other host was getting too expensive, and besides, the hosting at WA is supposed to be of the very highest standard, yes?
After transferring my site... Well you can see for yourself what happened.
This would haven't been too bad if I was only getting like 50 sessions a day. But prior to the transfer of my site, I was getting around 1000 sessions a day from posts that have ranked as a result of the authority I built for my site after the past year and a half. My traffic dropped from 1010, to 500, to 40 in 3 consecutive days and things don't seem to be getting any better.
I am praying that this is just an error with Google Analytics. If not, a year and a half's hard work and hundreds of invested dollars have just gone down the drain.

If it is the case that I have lost all of my rankings, honestly, I have no idea what I will do.
I hope you are all progressing well with your businesses,
All the best,

***UPDATE***
I took a look through my plugins and noticed that they were all deactivated for some reason. Then I remembered that I had my Google Analytics tracking code set-up on my All in One SEO plugin, so that was the reason why everything was messing up on Google Analytics. I am relieved.
