The Google Throttle: Does Google Limit Traffic To Your Web Site?

google throttle

The topic of Google throttling traffic to a web site has been around since 2008 or earlier, at least we first discussed it in 2008.

Google throttling traffic means that they would only give your web site X amount of visits per day before flipping the results so another site can also get a traffic. It is like sharing the wealth in terms of Google visits.

Most SEOs I know of find the concept to be completely ludicrous. But there are many SEOs that believe Google does do throttling.

Truth is, it is probably a lot of factors that might appear to seem Google is throttling your traffic. Such as ranking changes throughout the day, news, searcher behavior, etc.

In any event, there is a thread at WebmasterWorld with a large discussion around Google throttling traffic in 2016. Might be a fun read if your day is slow today.

Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld.
