Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Has anyone else got time to have a quick look into my post. I'd love some more feedback before I set off with my SEO strategy.

Any and all opinions are welcomed.

Great advice. Thanks Trickshotric.

The reconsideration request you mentioned - Where is that done?

Thanks also for the content advice. End results is something I'll work towards & shouldn't be to hard to create.

I started my business a few years ago. Only recently (6 month) I started to get some good traffic and sales.

At first I was ranking pretty well 3-5 for my main keywords and business began to pick up. After Penguin I was hit hard and I'm placing 10-17'ish. My Google local/places has disappeared too.

I haven't received any contact from Google about unnatural links (but I'm not sure where that would appear? Email? Web Master Tools? Horses head on my pillow?).

I've read so many different things online about what I 'could' do. I'm not sure where to start. I've checked and I know we've created lots of questionable back links. Using the Open Site Explorer lots of the backlinks don't have terrible DA but some do.

I guess I was hoping someone would give me a checklist or priority list of things to do. It's just me so I need to use my time as best I can. What should I be doing first? Should I be trying to:

1. Remove my bad backlinks?
2. Spend my time making quality backlinks.
3. On-page issues that I can't see?
4. Telling google i'm sorry via web master tools.
5. Changing to new domain (eek)

I'm very time poor and hoped the seoMoz community might save me from wasting my time.
