DesignzShop Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 I had 4-500 users online at all times in 3.4. When I switched to 4.0 I lost everything, traffic, sponsors etc... A decade gone... My site got down to single digit numbers from search engines. I've also had no relief since the 4.0 transfer.... Now, all of a sudden after a upgrade to 4.1.10 I have my traffics back in large numbers. First time in almost 2 years. The past 24 hours has been a breath of fresh air. I hope this is here to stay. With this kind of traffic back I can see a future again with sponsors and getting back into a dedicated server. There's light at the end of this tunnel it appears. Now I'm left wondering what was changed to make this happen? Besides that, Thank you IPB.
Mike Gholson Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 I hope this is true for our site as well! We lost over 60% of our revenue when we moved over to IPB. Keeping fingers crossed!!
sobrenome Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Same problem when we moved from Wordpress to Pages. And the traffic was not restablished. Since last days there was still a pagination problem that was dropping google ranks.
Markus Jung Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 I also lost a lot of traffic after moving vom vBulletin to IPS. Maybe also because URLs changed etc.
dalbert Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 One thing that i notice is that my word cloud is very heavy on forum mechanics terms ( post, join, forum, etc type terms).. Don't know if some of this can be minimized. Obviously anything to help with search ranking would help IPS end users, and also help IPS sales.
raza ali Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 i hope ipboard should work at seo because seo is best thing to increase board repetition and peoples will attract to buy ipboard due to its top class seo setting.

Are visitors increased rapidly recently, on closer investigation 800+ were baidu search bots.We were being hammered by them!
