Let me first state that I've been testing/using DragonByte SEO Pro for approximately 4 months now on a live vb4 site. I should also mention that there are numerous things which can cause traffic on a website to fluctuate, whether it's up or down, and SEO is just one of them, but it can be a significant one.

The graph above is of site traffic on the vb4 site I installed DragonByte SEO Pro on. Prior to installing DragonByte SEO Pro I had been running vbSEO on it for nearly 18 months and although I did see some initial boost in traffic way back when I first installed vbSEO, for some time now (over a year) the site had been pretty stagnant as far as traffic goes - always increasing but just slightly. For those unfamiliar with the previous product I had installed "vbSEO", it was also an SEO based product, but it is no longer available and no longer supported.

Here are some details related to the graphed timeline above:
1) I had been running vbSEO exclusively up until approximately November 1, 2013.

2) On or about November 1, 2013 (give or take a couple days) I started in the DragonByte SEO Pro Beta Testing Program, which happened to be currently on Beta 3 at the time. From this point on through approximately the end of December 2013 I installed approximately 8 Beta versions of DragonByte SEO with numerous hotfixes in between those versions. During this time I would also, on occasion, switch back to using vbSEO when there was a significant issue in the DragonByte SEO Beta being worked on that would cause my site not to function as intended. You can see on the graph as could be expected during that section of the Beta period there was a slight decrease in traffic do to occasional issues that would've been encountered by search engines and users.

3) Starting with Beta 8, which I installed on December 10, 2013, I considered DragonByte SEO Pro pretty stable and began using it exclusively full time.

4) On December 30, 2013 I installed DragonByte SEO Pro Release Candidate 1

5) On January 18, 2014 I installed DragonByte SEO Pro Gold.

6) During the time period graphed above I did not add any significant content to the site, did not change servers, nor was there any advertising or marketing campaign going on. The percentage split of "Visits By Medium" all stayed pretty constant too, right around: 75% Organic (search engine), 18% Direct and 7% Referral (social media) throughout the entire time graphed above.
My observations since DragonByte SEO Pro has been running on my site exclusively:
1) My page rankings through Google are significantly higher overall. Although most pages were indexed previously many were not ranked well enough to be visible to get hits.

2) Numerous organic search queries, which I didn't even register for before, I now rank well on and get high click through rates on.

3) There has been a significant reduction in duplicate tags/descriptions.
Like I mentioned above there are numerous things that can cause traffic to fluctuate on a website. You can draw your own conclusions.
