Hello,

I have a client whose website used to have 80-100k visits per day (PR7). it's a book shop. the thing is that since the begining of this month the website traffic has gone down dramatically.
before, when you searched for specific book names, this website was on top of the SERPs all the time. but, suddenly, in a blink of an eye it appears on page 3 or 4.

the funny thing is that none of the website competitors are on the top of SERPs either. when you type the name of a book, google returns websites that does not have much to do with the book itself but just a short reference of the book. these websites have normally a very low PR and they do not offer much info about the book nor the author.
I suspect google is having problems with its algorhythm because they are not offering a good service to their users at all when they smake a search. i mean, if you type the name of a book, you expect to read either info about the book, info about the author or a site where you can buy it. and it does not show this at all anymore.

does anyone have some info about google changing its algorhythm again and giving more relevancy to other different elements? any idea or suggestion?

thanks a lot,

daniel
