Can you confirm this plugin was the cause to lose all your search engine traffic.

Search engine referral keyword clouds are quite popular and I see no reason how this could have caused your site to get "de-indexed".

I am interested to install this plugin but I would like to hear feedback from other users.

Thanks.
