Is anyone witnessed complete or partial recovery from Penguin 2.1 yet?

[Asjad]

Hello Everyone,

I am analyzing and working on recovery of some sites that were hit by Penguin 2.1 on 4th Oct, 2013. I have done almost all fixes including

• Anchor Variations
• Social Sharing
• Local Links
• Diversity in Back-links

but still not witnessed any real recovery.

Is anyone witnessed

• Partial or Complete Recovery From Penguin 2.1?

Thanks for your feedback in advance!

Regards

Hi,

We 've had some real case a remarkable recovery penalty.

Our work has not been much change existing links but increase links meeting the new guidelines.

We have been more creative , we have included a strategy video on Youtube and independent social bookmarking buttons to each page of the web to add social bookmarks.

The intention is to increase the volume of good links to reduce the percentage of penalized.

We have the experience that Google does not like to change ancient and historic links which are often not consider changing their algorithms given their age and understanding that before the links otherwise worked , better focus in recent and create new ones.

In 2 cases we have made a remarkable recovery we have combined the review of links with an overview of SEO on-page and review general error that Google see a real change in the code from the web and did my best to reconsider its ranking .

Hope you helps.

Greetings from Spain .
