      I'm doing some link profile analysis and need examples of sites hit by Penguin (not Panda).

      If you have a site that was hit and are willing to share, please PM me:

      • Your site homepage URL
      • Main keyword(s) you lost rankings for (preferably keywords your homepage was ranked for but no longer is)

      I will keep your information strictly confidential and will not share it. (I will publish the results of my findings, but will not mention any of the sites used for research.)

      Thanks.

        Hi Adam,

        I ran across this article about a week ago..

        http://www.digitaltrends.com/web/googles-penguin-update-cuts-down-on-spammy-links-affects-3-percent-of-search-queries/

        If you don't want to read it all (there are some charts showing some metrics) you can skip to the site she referenced here... SearchMetrics

          Thanks. I've seen that data, but I think they failed to distinguish between Panda 3.5 results and Penguin results.
