Title: Search volume goes from 590 to 0 in 13 days.
Post by: gm66 on February 23, 2016, 11:45:16 AM
One of my clients is a dentist, one of his terms is 'dental implants london'.

On Feb 10th this was worth 590 searches per month, today it's worth zero.

I've not seen this happen so suddenly before (but i've only been at it for a couple of years), i've seen gradual dropoff but not straight to zero.

Does it happen a lot ?


Cheers,

Gary.

Doesn't make sense. Where is your data coming from, G planner or adwords or?

From G planner, i've tried in other browsers, signed out and in again in case it was a browser problem but no joy.

I just tried it before i wrote this sentence and it's back to 590.

I guess G just cocks up now and then, not surprising considering it's scale.


Cheers,

I've seen G do stuff like this before.
