Google Webmaster Tools Notifying Of Traffic Drops

Traffic DropsIt seems like we may have yet another new automated Google Webmaster Tools message for large traffic changes to specific URLs.

A Google Webmaster Help thread has one webmaster claiming he received a notification via Google Webmaster Tools that read, "Big traffic change for top URL."

The complete message read:

http://www.pcregistrycleaners.org/: Big traffic change for top URL March 7, 2012

Search results clicks for http://pcregistrycleaners.org/ have decreased significantly.

I have yet to see anyone else report such a message out there but since Google does show search query reports, a notification like this does make sense.

Have you seen this?

Google recently added a message for low quality pages in Google Webmaster Tools.
