It is interesting to see what Google can do to your blog. One of my blogs had quite a stable visitors previously, around 150 number of visits per day until suddenly it was sinking down to 30 – 40 visits only. This is a PR1 blog, around 6 months old packed with 40 posts keywords stuffed. I didn’t write new posts there – basically this blog got a little bit neglected after I join Alex Jeffreys coaching program. Nothing changed and for two weeks I was really disappointed seeing the traffic never picked up again to its previous state.
And then something weird happened. The traffic started picking up again and it hit 1806 visits (!) on Sept 28. Google Analytics showed 50% of the visitors were sent by google.com referral and only 3.7% sent by Google organic search. Now the traffic is stable again at 1,000 to 1,200 visits per day and I’m just happy with it.
Here is the screen capture of my blog’s stats. Note that I switched hosting to Hostgator on the Sept 5, 2009 so before that date the number is zero.

This blog had no subscription forms before the rush so I was busy preparing 3 different forms last week. Now I managed to catch 10 people to join my list, all by means of free gifts.
My Adsense income also grows much faster now
I’m still investigating why Google is sending me the good numbers of visitors. Once I find it I can optimize my blog to keep the visitors number grows bigger, or at least stable at current position. I’ve never expected nor imagined I would have a thousand visitors a day so I’m really excited to see what will happen next.

Hey Rudiawan:
That’s pretty cool! Am I understanding you right that this is not this blog? I wonder if you found any clues as to why Google picked up on it all of a sudden?
If you could find the “how-to” behind this and repeat it in other niches/sites I guess that would be a huge deal!
Cheers,
Thomas
