A webmaster has problems with his new domain name: "I did a domain name change a little over a month ago. For the first week everything was amazing and I didn't lose any traffic at all. Then, a week later it dropped by 50% and that`s where it has stayed since."

Google's John Mueller answers: "it looks like your new domain name may have been used for other purposes previously. In general, when you change to a new domain name that might have been used before, it's a good idea to submit a reconsideration request, detailing the change of ownership (or at least change of purpose)."
