Hello AGG fam,
First let me say I hope everyone is having a great summer. Let me give you a quick backstory
About 5 years ago I started a website that I created and was all related to crypto and crypto gaming, wallets etc... I worked on it every night after I got off work for 2 years before It even went live. The site turned out pretty damn good too.
Well after a year of being live and creating content on my websites blog and adding new content to the site every couple of days I started ranking pretty well on Google. I was building relationships with other websites related to mine and was getting solid backlinks from solid websites including two big online casinos that were really popular at the time. I wasn't really making to much with the advertising yet but I was getting referrals.
And then one day Google decided to do some stupid update with their search algorithm and all my work, all my efforts, all the countless hours and money, all my clicks and impressions were gone overnight.
Suddenly I wasn't ranking anymore, my keywords went from top 10 to invisible and let me tell you how defeated I felt and still feel.
Eventually I gave up and stopped updating my site, stopped creating new content and now obviously it's just sitting on the bottom like a sunken ship.
So now I'm not sure what to do. Have any of you guys experience this?
I'm wondering if I should even attempt to renew the website and try to bring it back to life? It been about a year since it happened.
What do you guys think?
