weird. A blog of mine got hit with probably -100 penalty. I only had BMR and ALN links and BMD. After new update iam getting 100 visits everyday. Before it was hit traffic was 1000 visits each day and after it got hit it was like 10-12. My rankings are changing. Maybe the blog owners decided to remove their blogs and the bad links were removed too.
Me thinks BMD is coming in effect. Going to try something.
Break from the old keyword mentality, embrace synonyms
Since Google is changing their dependency on keyword ranking to include comparable ?like? words, webmasters should evaluate their website copy and brand message. Webmasters can now use similar words in context, pulling dependency away from using the same keyword throughout the page.
Since earlier Panda updates hurt my rankings on my pages, I decided to experiment with new SEO strategies. Link diversity is key as well as the contextual linking. I have re-written several pages on one site and each is ranking well. My tier 1 and tier 2 sites that link in are also optimized for unique anchor text in the links. On my web 2.0 sites, I have done much of the same and my profile links are reduced but well targeted.
I shaved a ton of irrelevant material off of my sites, shortened articles in many cases, and optimized all my tags - making many of them diverse. Along with this, I have made careful use of bold and italic text as Google pays close attention to this.
All in all, I have moved several pages up in rank rather quickly and I know that as time goes on, they will age beautifully. I have noticed that a lot of my competition is gone...this makes it a little easier to climb.
Focus on the on-page SEO to rank each individual page of a sight, link to them from high authority sources using diverse anchor text, and you will be fine...until Panda 3.5 of course!
on most of my sites nothing changed (some even moved up a bit - except the ones that are #1 hehehe). only the ones that were loaded with crappy content and default blasts from im software dropped like hell.
I have been de-optimizing my anchor text big time. Since my site was hit with a penalty on Feb 17th, every link I have made has been to de-optimize my anchor text.
For example, naked url's, brand name of site, "click here"...etc...
I have not created a link with my keywords in the anchor since Feb 17th...I really believe there has to be a certain percentage of your links like this, what the percentage is, only google knows.
Before Feb 17th I had great diversity in my anchor text, but it was not de-optimized.
For now,most of my keywords are dancing and getting higher and higher.It's true,most of my backlinking was done manually,web2.0 and article websites.I only added a scrapebox blast to index the first layer,but i haven't seen any results from that yet...
