Has Your Website Search Ranking Dropped Lately?
Possible reasons why your website search ranking changes over time or even overnight.
Search engine algorithm
Times change, people change and so does search engine algorithm. If algorithm sounds like a big word to you, as it does to me, then consider it as a giant set of complex [mathematic] formula that search engines like Google, Yahoo! or Bing develop to decide which websites are more relevant to what people search, thus will be displayed at the top, compared to all the sites indexed in their database.

Already knew about how search engines work, here are some simple but fundamental ways to increase your website traffic and its visibility.

The bad news: Web spiders have the capability to crawl and index all pages within your website, and depending on the complexity of your site architecture/layout, they may miss some or many pages of your site, or sometimes your entire site. The worse new: your site may get read and indexed by search engines, but it may not appear in search results – not visible at all.
The main idea about increasing your site traffic and making it more visible is to give your readers what they want / what they search for.
