Traffic Drop Quick Triage (Free): Technical Break or Google Update?
Example session with this skill installed
My traffic dropped around 2026-09-30. Site: plausible.io. Was it a Google update?
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the traffic drop quick
Verdict: CONSISTENT WITH A GOOGLE UPDATE
The drop date falls inside 'September 2026 spam update' and the quick live checks are clean. This is correlation, not proof.
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| DNS resolves | OK |
| robots.txt | OK (Googlebot not blocked) |
| Homepage status | OK (200) |
| Homepage indexable | OK |
| Homepage canonical | OK (self) |
| XML sitemap | OK (167 URLs) |
Overlapping: September 2026 spam update (Ranking, 2026-09-24 to 2026-10-08).
(Real live checks on 2026-10-31; the drop date is an example input.)

About this skill
Free. Traffic or impressions fell off a cliff? In under a minute, find out whether the site is technically broken right now or whether the drop date matches an official Google update.
Quick live checks: DNS, robots.txt server errors and Disallow: / for Googlebot, homepage (and one page) status, off-site redirects, noindex (meta and X-Robots-Tag), off-site canonicals, XML sitemap.
Official update dating: reads Google's Search Status Dashboard live (core updates, spam updates, crawling and indexing incidents) and shows what overlaps your drop date plus the last 90 days.
One of four verdicts: LIKELY TECHNICAL BREAK, CONSISTENT WITH A GOOGLE UPDATE, OVERLAPS A GOOGLE-SIDE INCIDENT, or NO OBVIOUS CAUSE, with fixes in order.
Real sample (2026-10-31): live checks on plausible.io were all clean; an example drop date of 2026-09-30 matched the official September 2026 spam update (24 Sep to 8 Oct). The date is an example input, not a claim that plausible.io lost traffic.
