RECOVERY FAQ’S

How Do I Know If My Site Was Penalized?

Considering how critical your Google rankings are for guiding traffic to your website, it won’t be long before you company begins to feel the impact of a search engine penalty. Look for the following symptoms if you suspect that your site is currently under scrutiny by Google:

Your site is no longer listed among the top results – You’ve worked hard to get your site ranked on the first page. Now you’re watching your site fall down the page on daily basis. What’s the deal? This is a major red flag that your site could be affected by a penalty.
Your site no longer appears search engine results – Even more concerning than watching your site loose ranks on Google is to see it disappear from search engine results altogether. A major penalization could lead to Google dropping your site from all search engine results.
Daily traffic has slowed to a trickle – Your site is still ranking on Google but everything else seems to be trending in the wrong direction. Site traffic seems to shrink overnight, followed by limited data from analytics tools. These are all common signs of a website being penalized for a terms of service violation.

What Are The Differences Between Manual and Algorithmic Penalties?

An algorithmic penalty is one that occurs as a result of Google updating their algorithms. These mistakes aren’t as egregious as most companies are only able to update their websites once they receive word that the algorithms have been changed. Conversely, manual penalties are the result of a human observing an infraction and personally assigning a penalty on a company’s website. In most cases, a company will experience the adverse consequences of a manual penalty much more quickly.

What Are The Main Algorithmic Penalties?

Since 2011, Google has released four major algorithmic upgrades. With each of these updates also came a list of new algorithmic penalties that companies must still comply with if they want their sites to rank on Google:

Panda – First released back in 2011, Penguin focused on penalizing sites without sufficient high-quality content. Sites that were not intuitive in their design or overwhelmed by advertising were hit with penalties as well.
Penguin – This update revolved around cleaning up how eCommerce companies operated and making sure that links across the Web sent users where they expected to be sent. Google continues to penalize websites with unusual backlink architectures.
Hummingbird – The Hummingbird update improved the search engine’s ability to interpret long-tail searches. Google released notes about Hummingbird months before the update so most companies were able to prepare their operations for the algorithmic change.
Pigeon – Thankfully, the new release of Pigeon has not resulted in a huge wave of penalizations. This successful rollout of the new algorithm has much to do with the fact that the upgrade is limited to improving Google’s local search functionality.

When The Penalty Is Lifted Will My Site Rank Again?

How quickly your site recovers from penalization depends largely on the type of penalization and how far your site fell after the initial ranking change. Addressing duplicate content, for example, could be addressed within 24-hours and result in a rapid recovery. A slew of unscrupulous backlinks, however, could takes months to resolve before Google rescinds the penalty.
