Hi
I am not sure if my circumstance is common or just my personal one. Due to Google analysis report, I am loosing SEO position on Google significantly after upgrade to Newspaper 6.2.1
Please leave your assessment for sufficient conclusion.
Thanks
I made a mistake. I should be Loosing SEO position after updating from 6.2 to 6.3
There have been quite a lot of these threads lately. I´m still on 6.1 and everything is working as it should.
Can we be guaranteed that there are no more SEO mistakes made in the 6.3 update or is it better to wait with updating till a later version? Cause if there is one thing one usually can´t afford it is ranking loss due to technical issues.
Well, A/B testing would suggest you go back to the prior version and see what happens, right ?
Google is constantly messing with SERPS; and simple things like relational links, inbound links, popularity of content, originality of content, paid adwords promoting your site, all can impact the placement.
Losing traffic is one issue; losing keyword placement may not be, as this is now constantly in flux unlike old days where I could keep a top 3 position for 5 years on any keyphrase.
This is also particularly true if you’re in Google News as they are REALLY messing with SERPS related to news items; promoted for 7 days, then seemingly buried in organics for awhile, then they come back up. Weirdness. Regardless of theme or theme version, in our case.
I would try reverting to prior version to do a proper A/B test for the differential if you think the theme version is in any way related to the change.
Hi,
It was a title issue on 6.2 but it was fixed. As Christopher suggests, you could switch back to 6.1 and see if the issue is still there. This will clear out if it’s coming from the theme or from something else. If you don’t have v.6.1 please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and we will provide it for you.
Thank you!
