If you're experiencing a drop in traffic, no worries, this is all normal. A majority of bloggers are also affected by the Google May core update.

You can also read Kyle's Google May update info here.

This is all normal, a majority of people are experiencing a 70 to 80 percent drop in traffic. But this is temporary and shouldn't discourage you from your pursuit. It should take a few days or a week until we see things get back to normal.

Until then, just keep creating content, make any adjustments needed on your site such as site speed, image optimization and any minor SEO fixes.

Just keep dishing out awesome, quality content and use the practices here on WA, and you'll do great.
