Should I say Bye Bye this blog after Penguin updated

[seolaptop]

Hello all

I have a blog (about 5 months old)
I create unique content and build backlink by buying some PBN, web 2.0, manul commenting, manual forum posting and some guest post from quality site (wikipedia, buzzfeed, hozz...)
I build backlink slowly.
Anchor text:
- 30%: other
- 10%: brand name
- 15%: main keyword
- 15%: second keyword
- 20%: URL name
- 10%: my name

I do seo for 2 keyword: main and second
After Google update Penguin: Main kw: #11, second kw: #15
Today, my position is: #60 and #70
Search: brandname: do not see on page 1 but see on page 2
But..the position is not for my main site, it for my other page (domain.com/page1 and domain.com/page2)

My site do not get any massenge or warning from Google and get indexed for all page.

So, should I bye bye this blog or remove the low quality backlink (or use Disavow Links Tool) and wait the next update ?
Please help me
Thanks

Its too early to decide either way, so better check your links and improve upon them.

Don't get frightened just yet. It is very common for keywords to jump around, especially after an update.
Don't do anything drastic just yet and just analyze what happens.

There is a decent chance they'll just start rising again.

To answer your original question:

Since your blog is not de-indexed in any way nor notices of penalties it's definitely not worth it to put it to sleep.

if you used spun content in web 2.0s then you are likely to be hit. May be your PBN got sacked.

I use only unique content for web 2.0 or any guest blog

So, I should sleep now and wait, right ?

I would wait at least a week before I'd do anything.

If the rankings remain the same:

1. You could remove low-quality links with Disavow tool and wait till the next update (this will probably take a long time)
2. You could just buy a new domain, get your old content, make a new blog and start ranking again (a better choice IMO)

This is crazy, how long ago was it updated because one of my main keywords. The big million dollar company who has #1 keyword for every keyword im trying to get just vanished off of G. I don't see them all the way back to the tenth page, However my keywords have creeped up to the 1st and 2nd page. So whatever they did at this point i hope it stays like this haha

Isn't 15% to the main keyword way too high?!

Give it a couple of weeks. My first assessment about this disaster, I mean update, tells me the index data is old and your site is relatively young. So give it time.

According to SEL the update is complete http://searchengineland.com/google-releases-first-penguin-update-year-206169?

Google has suggested that with the latest version of Penguin, it also would have a new system allowing for refreshes to happen more frequently. Time will tell on that — the count starts now.

Postscript: Google has confirmed that the Penguin roll out is complete as of Monday morning, October 20th.

Maybe it's just a Google dance, wait for couple of days.

 

[seolaptop]

Google is completed for this update
I think wait a few day or few week is not change this game
Google - you win !
I think I will start new project

You're gonna make it brotha. Start a new project

Better wait for any update. some of my keyword dodge this update, you can still create new project for better plans.
