October 6th SERP Decline

[Shane]

Anyone else notice any issues that started on October 6th? I've recently went from 500 impressions daily to under 100 with Google. Not entirely sure what the issue is.

There was the EMD and Panda updates around that time.

With such a decline in traffic it definitely sounds like a penalty.

That's what I was thinking too. My domain isn't an EMD so I know it's the Panda update but does anyone have any idea of what was tweaked? The website in questions follows all guidelines perfectly.. Think it could be the post update shuffle and not an actual penalty? I've run into that issue a few times just to have my website to return higher in the serps.
