Penguin Algorithm Updates

Penguin is a series of Google search engine algorithm changes that aim to improve the quality of search results and reduce the impact of certain types of SEO tactics. Penguin algorithmically correlates and discounts the value for certain types of backlinks that Google has found to be unnatural. Unfortunately, sometimes, the activities of previous marketing vendors or the legacy impact of dated SEO practices can cause high-quality websites and online brands to lose traffic because of these updates.

If you have been affected by a Google Penguin update, you can see a dip in your Google organic traffic on one of the dates listed:

  • April 24, 2012: Penguin 1.0 (#1)
  • May 25, 2012: Penguin 1.1 (#2)
  • October 5, 2012: Penguin 1.2 (#3)
  • May 22, 2013: Penguin 2.0 (#4)
  • October 4, 2013: Penguin 2.1 (#5)
Here are the dates of the Panda Updates To remediate the effects of a Penguin update, your backlinks must be recorded, catalogued, and analyzed and a plan of action must be made to address as many of the backlinks to the website as possible.
