Yes Google is a threat. My traffic from Google organic search decreased by 89% overnight this week.

Without that traffic my site would make in a year what it would usually make in a month.

So, it's at this point that I'd have to consider PPC to drive traffic to make revenue to justify the amount of time I spend updating the site.

However, with minimum clicks at ridiculous prices, that would lead to a loss. And I'd be paying the company for traffic which I once received for free.

From where I'm at it's a shame that you can only drive traffic and commissions if you do well in Google. The other search engines don't have much to offer and only account for 12% of my search engine referrals.

From my last 625 visitors, 550 were from Google, 44 from Yahoo!, 22 from AOL and 9 from Windows Live.
