It looks as if your (estimated SEO) traffic has actually been declining since January 2017:
https://d.pr/i/QcDriP.png (SEMRush screenshot)
https://d.pr/i/SpwvlF.png (Ahrefs screenshot)
... so this isn't a sudden thing, it looks like your site has been in decline for over 2 years (around 29 months, or 894 days). This usually means that you have a lot of things that are going wrong (not just one thing) and that your investment in good SEO and 10x content has been poor for the last couple of years (which you are probably now feeling pains over)
In late August 2018 you had a gigantic spike in referring pages:
https://d.pr/i/4Fgjjv.png (Ahrefs screenshot)
... I reckon that would have looked SUPER obvious to Google and maybe Penguin kicked off, making your situation even worse. Majestic SEO shows exactly the same thing:
https://d.pr/i/5QbQP3.png (Majestic SEO screenshot)
https://d.pr/i/PDrPg8.png (second screenshot from Majestic)
Moz's "Link Explorer" tool might show similar, but can't navigate back far enough in time (d'oh! Still it's running new tech so I guess that creates a time barrier of data-linking from OSE to MLE)
This is how your site looked in October 2016 (just before the serious drops began in January 2017):
https://web.archive.org/web/20161027015942/http://www.rakhibazaar.com/
This is how your site looks now:
... it looks basically the same! Even the page title hasn't changed, except from changing "Rakhi 2016" to "Rakhi 2019". The site gives off all the signals of a website which someone once made, never really invested in again or pushed further - and thus which is destined to die in the future
Mobile UX has improved a little bit, but that's basically it. Nothing revolutionary has happened, the competition has caught up with you and your site is becoming old and obsolete with no 'modern' USPs, no modern value-proposition or value-add for end users. 2016 SEO is not fit for 2019 (not even close!)
In this video, Rand talks about creating web-content (which is ANYTHING a user digests digitally, which exists on a web-page - NOT limited to 'just text'): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLrKFRYGM5M
^ you should really listen to the ways in which SEO has changed over time
What your site lacks is a unique and credible "value proposition' (which is a proven, qualified business-level integration - NOT a simple quick tag you can optimise). Miley from Google talks about that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AmRg3p79pM (you only need to watch her talk about "Issue #1", after that the rest of the video is not relevant)
In the future you need to think about how 'good unique content' is not good enough in 2019: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/blog/why-good-unique-content-needs-to-die-whiteboard-friday
... and then you can think about creating 10x content: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/blog/how-to-create-10x-content-whiteboard-friday - or experiment with something like the "Skyscraper Content Technique": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9h-9BIC1VU
Think about the story of your brand and what you're bringing to your audience. Think about the unique value-add which your site should 'add' to the internet (which doesn't exist now). Think about the value proposition sof your business and website and how you can unify those in a digital format

Rankings Drop Penguin 2.0
Hey guys, Suffering a horrible rankings drop after penguin 2.0. We have 4 popular sites and have seen a steady decline in rankings and traffic after 22nd May. I've looked into it a little bit and am wondering if WordPress blog sidebar links might be hurting us. Specifically my brother and I both have sidebar links on our personal blogs which are getting indexed on every page, and I'm wondering if it's distorting our link profiles. Specifically, I read something about links coming from sites which aren't relevant to your niche and overly optimised anchor text. Both sites have very simple single keyword anchor texts on the links. We're pretty white hat in terms of SEO, we've never done that much link building, and when we do, it's usually with worthwhile directories or with sites we have relationships with. Therefore we don't have that many links. Any ideas on how best to investigate this? Thanks.

How to rank for many keywords
OK, so I've been diving into SEO pretty hard lately and learning everything I can. Something I'm not quite understanding is how to rank for a lot of different keywords. We're in the proofreading and editing space which can be broken down into many categories: general proofreading & editing essay editing book editing etc. If I consider the "essay editing" category, the main keyword I want to target is, in fact, "essay editing". However, I'd also want to target: essay editing service, edit my essay, fix my essay, revise my essay, etc. Basically, a lot of modifiers. I can easily target our main page for essay editing and essay editing service keywords, but how do I start ranking for those longer tail keywords? Is it simply building content that includes them? Is it getting links utilizing anchor text? Or is there something I'm missing? I don't see the point in building separate service pages for those other keywords; I think that's a waste and bad site architecture practices. I'm just looking for my "aha" moment on these longer-tail rankings. Thanks!

Do you believe TLD distribution effects rankings in Google?
I have noticed that when looking at TLD distribution of backlinks for many websites that have grown organically, the TLD distribution is somewhat consistent depending on the style of website (I am using MajesticSEO to find this distribution data). Do you feel deviating from this TLD distribution depending on the style of website you have would cause negative effects with Google? Has there been any testing of this that you know of that you can point me to (ex: building all backlinks from .info TLDs and seeing if you rank well for given keywords)? I ask because my companies website has seen some big deviations from this and although I don't see any negative effects currently I want to make sure we create a site that stays consistent with what Google is looking for. For example, if I look at news sites such as New York Times and Los Angeles Times, I see TLD distributions as such: nytimes.com

.com = 59%
.gov = 14%
.org = 12%
.uk = 2%
.edu = 2% latimes.com
.com = 59%
.org = 13%
.gov = 11%
.edu = 4%
.net = 2%
.uk = 2% From that, if you are a news site, my assumption would be to try to stay consistent with around 55-65% of your links coming from .com domains, around 9-15% from .org, etc etc . Now, looking at large blog styles sites I see this distribution: naturalnews.com
.com = 70%
.org = 11%
.edu = 3%
.net = 2%
.gov = 1% techcrunch.com
.com = 71%
.org = 10%
.edu = 4%
.net = 3%
.gov = 1% Any input or links to tests of this would be much appreciated.0 -
How to improve ranking on .com vs 'local' .no
Hi I am ranking 1st for my main keyword (barneklær-childrens clothing) on google.no. I got a bit surprised to see we are close to bottom of page 2 for same keyword on google.com. This keyword is as you probably understandreally country specific because the norwegian letter -æ . So if I take a look at the list at google.com its really the same sites I am outranking on .no. For this keyword local stats pr month is 22k and global is 29k (from google adwords). Even though our site is norwegian only - all of the global traffic is relevant due to the fact that this is a norwegian only word. Main reason we are ranking first on google.no i think is that we ve had articles on the strongest and most relevant blogs in Norway. I am guessing we somehow need to improve our international linking profile - right ? Do i then need US sites ? Is it enough with sites outside Norway? Any suggestions, its not easy to get international links to a norwegian site only dealing with childrens clothing. Thanks in advance... Dan Lærum

When searching for high quality links, in a niche area such as real estate, does page rank factor into a search or is page / domain authority the most important factor?
After having employed many different methods for finding good link partners I am now finding it more difficult to reach out and identify good quality links for a niche area such as real estate. Does page rank factor into the search much or is it better to focus on page / domain authority as a major factor?

Nich phrase ranking
I'm trying to get a page ranked for a niche phrase. There are a few established players in the industry but no competition for this phrase beyond that. Open site explorer reports that main competitor for the phrase this page points to has 538 links but they are all internal with no extermal links. DA is 45 and PA is 25 My client has25 links for the phrase this page points to from 10 unique external domains in addition to internal links. Domain is only 3 months old. DA is 20 and PA is 30. Right now I'm buried in back pages and feel I should be higher. Should my strategy be to build trust and authority or concentrate on more keyword specific links?
