http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_does_not_imply_causation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_does_not_imply_caus... The numbers here are too small and the data too limited to make that claim. Also search engine changes aren't instantaneous -- I've seen it takes days or weeks for changes found in a crawl of a small site to percolate through Google. Did Google even crawl the pages in question on the day Survey IO went live?

survey.io widget is site wide, so it was showing up on all pages on the site. Google crawls the site every day, so changes are more or less instantaneous. A lot of times, it takes like 7 minutes from the moment a question is posted, to the moment it shows in Google. But yeah I'm just as baffled as you, as to why it had such a big impact
