Have you had 3 to 5 Google penalties lifted?
-
I've tried three times and have been unsuccessful.
Is there any specific strategy or technique that has worked for you?
Anyways, I'd like to speak with you if you have successfully had 3 to 5 penalties lifted. So please reach out to me.
Thanks

What the site under a "manual" penalty?
-
I have had link related penalties and poor content penalties removed, or at least the keywords ranked well after we corrected the issues
I never revived an email from Google saying the penalty was lifted, but as I say the result was what the client wanted.
If this is what you would like to discuss I am happy to help

Hi Dominic...have a look at your p.m.'s. I sent you a message a couple of days ago. I've been able to lift unnatural links penalties for a good number of sites now. I didn't ask if yours was actually a manual penalty (i.e. did you get a warning in WMT). If it's an algorithmic issue like Penguin then this could be another story.
In case you can't read your p.m.'s for some reason you can reach me at marie@hiswebmarketing.com

Hi Dominic
Do you know what penalties you were affected by?
What dates did you see the effects?
What messages have you received in Webmaster tools?
There are different responses to different penalties and knowing what you have been penalized for is the first step towards recovery.
Probably not the answer you hoped to hear but it should be the first step you take.

Hi Dominic. I have found that by far the most common reason for sites to fail at getting a manual linking penalty removed is that not enough links have been selected for needing removal. Other reasons include not doing enough work to show Google that you have tried to get links removed. (It is not enough to just disavow links). And some reconsideration requests fail because the disavow tool was not used properly.
I'll send you a p.m. and we can see if I can help you.

Are Millions of back links from 3 domains bad?
I have a client that has 4 individual domains with duplicate content mirroring certain sections of the main site as well as the home page. I understand the duplicate content issues but have a different question that I would like advice on. I am seeing 3 of these domains back linking to the main domain causing over 5 million backlinks. Is this bad and can it hurt rankings? One domain has 3,215,658 backlinks and another has 1,553,947 backlinks. I have experienced this in the past with a different client, where sister companies back linked using the exact same anchor text caused over 5 million back links. This client experienced a drop of their top 2 keywords where they dropped from # 1 & 2 positions in Google SERPs to the 82nd position. Appreciate feedback

Site received penalty, Traffic restricted to 3-4 visits/hour
Dear all We received a penalty notice at webmaster tools 2 months ago, in that stated "your pages violate our quality guidelines" and "contain some inorganic links to your site". Ours is a Coupon website and tried to follow all quality guidelines given in webmaster central. Also we tried to identify and remove spam kind of links and still we are working on that. Suddenly from yesterday website traffic restricted to 3-4 visits/hour, but website main keyword SERPs are not changed much and still ranking at good positions. my question if any website is under manual penalty, it's traffic will be restricted by Google???. Every link we build manually and not gone for any paid links or reciprocal links. But the sites given some links as sitewide, example we tried to get a back link & submitted url at once only, but it was showing in webmaster Total links 468 and linked pages 1. Can any one please explain, how it can happen?. We are trying to remove these spam kind of links, but from directory owners response is a bit disappointing, kindly any one suggest that, will Google Disavow tool help in this regard and how much time it will take to nullify the links?. Kindly help us..Thanking you all in advance
