I co-run a movie-related website with a google PR of 5.
Whenever we alter any code on our pages, Google gets really mad and abruptly drops us for weeks or months at a time. This is a problem because a LOT of our traffic comes from Google Image Search results (on a number of celebrities we’re on the front page of the results, or near the top).
It seems like ANY change to the code causes Google to shun us. For example, I added an “Addthis” button on our news article pages, and suddenly it was like we had disappeared in the eyes of Google.
Is this just web development 101 and I’m missing something obvious?
