If you depend on SE traffic, one possible reason for ratios getting worse this month is that AOL dropped dmoz altogether.
For a few months, AOL had not been returning dmoz sites in the SERP, but was still showing dmoz categories (under the Narrow Your Search option).
Since April 11th, you can still go to the categories, but THEY ARE ALL BLANK.
So, if you had AOL hits coming in via dmoz listings, you lost them.
Time to think about that Inktomi submission.
