My site has dropped dramatically in rankings and direct traffic has skyrocketed. How to protect yourself?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

My site was in the top 10-20 for the main queries. Direct traffic increased sharply from 10-15 visitors to 300 per day and at the same time the site flew away in all positions somewhere beyond the top 100. This is probably an attack by competitors. How to defend against it and how to return to position?

Answer 1

This is not an attack, it's more like bots parsing content. But look at the logs, everything will be visible there, maybe the robots, of course, are looking for common holes in cms.

Answer 2

so you figure out what kind of traffic first, get rid of it and everything will be ok

Answer 3

for (x = 1; x < 5; x++) {
    /*
        setTimeout(function(){
          clickRecordSearch(0, ip_nvr, x, "2017-05-17 00:00:00", "2017-05-17 23:59:59", num_nvr); //channel num as is,   without shift
        }, 500);
    */
    (function(x) {
        setTimeout(function() {
            clickRecordSearch(0, ip_nvr, x, "2017-05-17 00:00:00", "2017-05-17 23:59:59", num_nvr); //channel num as is,   without shift
        }, 500);
    })(x);
}

Answer 4

Why setInterval does not suit you? You're using a for loop and setTimeoutYou're trying to replicate the behavior of setInterval .

Answer 5

for(x = 1; x<5; x++)
  {
    setTimeout(function(){
      clickRecordSearch(0, ip_nvr, x, "2017-05-17 00:00:00", "2017-05-17 23:59:59", num_nvr); //channel num as is,   without shift
    }, 500 * x);
  }
