September 2016 made quite a stir across the internet marketing arena when Google rolled out its Penguin Update 4.0. It’s been working “real-time” ever since. The update has been included in Google’s main algorithm, and it’s definitely not a filter!
The most horrifying aspect is that you may not be even notified when you’re hit/penalized by the update! You might have to go on a limb assuming that you were probably penalized by indirect signs - sharp drop in organic traffic or a Google dance scenario. It could be a declined position for some or all of your keywords, the branded ones as well.
Like with any other update, there are two sides to the coin. Penguin 4.0 makes it possible for you to witness the results quick for your actions, so quicker the penalization as well. And guess what? The recovery comes fast as well!
