Are you ready for G-penguin 2.0

meanwhile, still ranking 1 page wordpress sites with pure spam

Adaptation is key.

We are all ready! Bring it on G. Hit us with your best shot.

This is old lol. Anyone know what the name of the update will be? My suggestion is Rhino update.

As for site recovery. It really isn't that hard. It takes 3-4 months - but it adding content, sensible linking to the new content and getting some social interaction going on the site is about all theis is to it.
But that involves work, and most people in IM are too lazy to be bothered and too impatient to wait. Rather buy another domain and hunt for the next push button content making and linking solutions. Then wonder why 18 months down the line that ones wiped out and they have to start again.

Hi Scritty,

First post here but not a newbie to a bit of 'BlackHat'.

I've not personally been hit by Penguin, but see stories again and again on different forums etc.

Have you personally recovered/know those who have?

Have seen one 'big' story of a recovery (maybe SearchEngineLand?) - but it seems like a 're-instatement after a mistaken drop thanks to Penguin'.

Could you give any examples (with/without naming them).

Thanks.

I really feel bad for all the news propagated by white hats. It's a damn shame. This article is a prime example.

Yes - recovered 100% with one site and over 50% with another (in terms of SEP's and number of referrals from Google).
It was long winded. Required anchor text dilution, adding of new content, social interaction metrics and patience.
Patience is where most fail. NOthing happened for the first 6 weeks of my recovery plan. Not a movement.
Then after about 6 weeks to 2 months revcovery has been steady. 4 months after starting the results are as I mentioned above.

No point asking "how much content"? or "how many links"?
That will be entirely dependant on your site, your historical linking profile and your existing content. The more fecked up you are, the more content, links and patience it will take. The harder your competition will also have a huge bearing of course.

I'm also following the same script as scritty and the site is slowly recovering.

I'm blasting pure spam at the site with lots of anchor text dilution and platform dilution(bookmarks,web2.0s,wikis,directories,blog comments,profiles,article directories)
