Cómo perdí todo mi tráfico de Google porque no sostuve mi sitio

Acabo de experimentar a la pesadilla peor de los blogger: ¡El servidor de mi compañía de recibimiento estrellado, la mayor parte de los datos FUE PERDIDO, mi sitio estaba abajo por dos días completos, y perdí todo mi tráfico! Y encima de ése todo, no era uniforme en ciudad cuando sucedió ésta, así que no podría fijar el problema hasta que conseguí detrás casero porque no tenía ninguna reservas alejada. ¡Tan después de blogging por 6 meses y de aumentar mi tráfico lentamente pero constantemente a casi 1200 visitantes al día, ahora estoy consiguiendo a 45 visitantes whopping de Google!

Google está asombroso rápidamente en quitar un sitio de él es índice principal si algo es incorrecto y aquí es prueba abajo:

Para usted puede ver del gráfico, estaba bien sobre 1.000 visitantes al día hasta el 28 de septiembre y más allá. De lo que descubrí de mi compañía de recibimiento, BlueHost, el servidor tenía una falta “severa” del hardware tarde en la tarde el viernes, la 28va cuarta. ¡Desafortunadamente, incluso con todo sus sistemas de reserva, etc, “perdieron” algunas de las reservas y los otros fueron corrompidos! Ahora recuerde, usted está hablando de una compañía de RECIBIMIENTO y bastante popular también eso PERDIDO sus reservas.

¡Y ése es tráfico justo de Google, yo también perdió todos los mi tráfico de Yahoo, tráfico de StumbleUpon, y más que la mitad de mis suscriptores de FeedBurner! ¡Todos le lleva un error como esto el tornillo encima de todo!

Tenía una reserva de mi base de datos del SQL, así que tenía todos mis postes ahorrados, pero no tenía una reserva completa de mi directorio casero real en el servidor. Agradecidamente, era uno los afortunados que tenían solamente algunos archivos corrompidos y no perdieron todo. Los archivos que consiguieron corrompidos eran todos los archivos de index.php almacenados en varias localizaciones en los directorios de Wordpress. Podía descargar la versión más última de WordPress, substituyo todos los viejos archivos junto con corrompidos y todo estaba detrás en línea.

SIN EMBARGO, todos mis datos habían sido perdidos, tenía solamente reservas de mi tema de Wordpress y un par de las carpetas del sistema como wp-admin y wp-los incluyo. Habría perdido todos mis cuadros y plug-ins almacenados en la carpeta del wp-contenido. Conseguí básicamente superbly AFORTUNADO y éste era un grande despierta la llamada para mí. It’s hard to imagine something like this happening to you, but it does and if you’re not prepared, all of your hard work (and income) could disappear within a few hours!!!

Here are my new mantra’s that I’ll be following from now on:

MAKE BACKUPS OF ALL DATA ON MY WEB SITE DAILY

STORE THE BACKUPS LOCALLY, ON MY HOSTING COMPANY’S SERVERS, AND REMOTELY USING ANOTHER SERVICE

ASSUME IT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME AGAIN

As of now, my site has been up and running since yesterday and I’m still not getting any traffic from Google. Hopefully, things will come back once they see that the site does not simply have the words "This site is temporarily down due to required repairs" written all over it! I’m praying!

Anyone else have this kind of experience? If so, post a comment about what happened and if you recovered or not! Thanks!

    Talk about Murphy’s law. I was wondering what happened! Glad you are back online.

    Assuming you had a remote backup of the entire blog with the database, and your primary server crashed, can all the files be restored automatically without human intervention?

    Or is it that one has to always manually restore/upload the files via local or remote backups? In this case if someone is on vacation for 3-4 days and does NOT check on their blog, the backup would not be restored and traffic still be lost, regardless if you have a backup or not.

    “Automatic restore and synchronize”.. is there anything like that for web sites or blogs?

    I hope I make sense.

    Hey Sameer,

    I’m glad to be back too! hahaha That was quite scary indeed. To answer your question about automatic recovery or restoration of backups, the answer right now is yes and no. In my case, the backups were actually corrupt, so I still had to manually upload and replace files.

    Had the files not been corrupt, they actually did restore my files to the original directory, so my site would be been up and running just fine. I’m sure that most large hosting companies will try to automatically restore your site in case of a failure. But as you can see, it’s good to have your own backup because you can’t count on them sometimes!

    I host on a free host my site due to lack of money.They are really nice but when they are down they take a lot of time to recover.

    (I feel like I should knock on wood before replying, here…)

    Glad to see you back up and running! I can only imagine the feeling when you found out. Recently my entire SQL database disappeared from my hosting service, only to reappear an hour later with their apologies. Fortunately I hadn’t launched my blog yet, so the information that [might have] been lost wasn’t detrimental. I now [try] to backup regularly.

    You mentioned you use WordPress; I was curious as to whether you’ve installed the database backup plugin. Thus far it’s proven very useful for me. The plugin can be downloaded at http://www.ilfilosofo.com/blog/wp-db-backup/

    All in all though, glad you’re back. I’ve been reading your blog for a couple months now and always find it incredibly helpful!

    Hi Siddarth,

    Don’t be too worried, as long as they can get your site up and running within a few days, your traffic will come back. There are actually a lot of free hosting services out there that might be better than the one you’re currently using. I’ll try to send you some links!

    Good luck and don’t be jealous! Your blog will do fine, everyone has to go through these rough times!

    Hi Sydney, thanks for visiting my blog for such a long time! I’m glad you enjoy it! I was really about to kill myself if I had lost 6 months worth of work in one day!

    Currently, I do have the wp-db-backup plugin installed and running. Unfortunately, as I came to find out, having just the posts backed up was not enough. Even with my database intact, some of my web files were corrupted (the PHP files) and all of the pictures would have been missing also!

    Luckily, my blog traffic has returned to normal today, so that was fairly quick. I’m doing daily backups now! ;)

    Again, thanks for visiting!
