Business Site Hit Hard from The Penguin Update

[jmccommas]

Over the last week or so I have been swimming through all the forum posts regarding the latest google penguin update and I am still unclear as to why my site was hit so hard. I have lost 90% of my traffic and my target keywords have disappeared. Maybe I am missing something hear but if you could have a look at my site in question here : http://www.websitetemplatedesign.com/

Is there something that just stands out that I have missed as to why this site would have been hit so hard?

Any input would be appreciated.

You need to watch the White Board Fridays.

4:30 Footer Links

8:50 Webpage Spam. In this case, you are doing microsites selling the same thing: TEMPLATES.

I agree with the other responses, especially the keyword stuffing in the footer area of the page - which also exist in the top menu - so over doing the number of internal and external links esp. with the same anchor keyword text again and again and again is potentially an issue.

Plus one of the external links is to adultsextemplates - not sure how much that has to do with it, but when you link that many times to external links within the same site and if all the links are in the same C block, that's a problem.

I would also say the keyword density for "templates" is too high.

Link farming could be added to the list as well. Check your low PA & DA links!

Oh yeah! Even I would hit you with a penguin. You might not like my response, but you asked for it.

1. Keyword stuffing in the footer.

2. Sitewide links in your footer linking to external sites. Why aren't they on the same site? Why are you making microsites? SPAMMING?

3. What's that? OMG same C-Block?

Sorry to be blunt, but you get my point. I found all that within 2 minutes.
