Hi All, Newbie here,
I'm looking at our Google Analytics (GAn) data for amritayoga dot com. On Oct 22 our Organic, Social and Referral sessions traffic
dropped to zero and the Direct traffic stayed the same. I went to the Google Search Console (GSC) and our Total Clicks showed no
change. Oct 22 was the same time as the big DDOS attacks happening in the USA and it was very hard to access the
website. I think our webhost service (HostNine) was affected by the attack.
How could our GAn Organic, Social and Referral traffic drop to zero but our GSC Total Clicks not change at all? Could there
be a tracking problem with GAn? I used the Google Tag Assistant tool and it looks the GAn tags are firing normally on the various
pages.
Also around Oct 22 I changed the category of some of our Wordpress blog posts.
I just checked and it appears that our Organic, Social and Referral traffic may be recovering just a little bit. Hard to tell for sure.
Any ideas what caused the traffic drop on Oct 22? How would you research this? Thanks,
