The gods must be krazy!

Google’s SERPs have updated recently, negitavely affecting my main site, Krazy Letter, in one of its most competitive keywords.

Traffic has halved, and earnings have gone to 1/5 of the original daily earnings. This is not very good, as Krazy Letter is my main cash chow.

What does this mean? Reliance on Google for traffic is *stupid*. Google has given me plenty of traffic for the past two years, and I have profited immensely off of it. However, all good things come to an end, and being blasted from #10 for a popular term to nowhere is kinda depressing.

Hopefully Google restores my ranking - It has been known to randomly derank, de-PR, or otherwise ostracize a website for no reason for short time periods. In case it does not, at least I have a significant amount of earned cash stored in the bank - I can always start on other things.

On the other hand…Google Adsense has given me 2x the CPM for the past few days - maybe they’re trying to compensate for this? Oh well - I mostly use Adbrite to monetize Krazy Letter…
