Google penalty removal expert questions
-
We have searched online for a Google penalty “expert” (individual or company) and have located what appear to be “experts”.
Please provide feedback on the following 2 individuals/companies we have found that can help with penalty removal.
Have you or one of your clients used either of the “experts” below?
What were the results?
How many disavows and reconsideration requests did you/they have to make?
1.www.penaltypros.com . To give a quote and to see what your links are they use links from Google Webmaster Tools only.
Penaltypros.com disavows first and then removes bad links second. This is opposite of what Google and Seo’s recommend but penaltypros.com claims 100% success using this non-traditional approach. See imgur.com link for screenshot.
2.http://www.hiswebmarketing.com/ To give a quote and to see what your links are they use links from https://ahrefs.com/ only.
Please provide any and all feedback on the above 2 “experts” and also post the websites, individual names, company names of those that you consider Google penalty removal “experts” so that we may obtain a quote from them.

Thanks for considering Penalty Pros to assist you with your Google penalty.
Whilst I obviously believe strongly in our service, we can equally vouch for Marie and her team - they do great work (and I can't say that about many...)
All the best!

We received an email from Google WMT on April 7th, 2013 notifying us of a manual action taken against our site due to unnatural inbound links. Our SEO company at the time (a very well known SEO company) didn't respond to any of our emails or phone calls about the WMT notice for 3 days, and then finally told us to "just ignore it". Our rankings plummeted and after much searching we found Marie. We hired her on May 29th to handle the penalty which was finally revoked on October 4th. Unfortunately we were hit by the Penguin update on May 26th and didn't get our link profile cleaned up in time for the October 4th Penguin update. So we're still penalized.
We had to submit about 5 reconsideration requests in all. When Google rejected our 4th reconsideration request they gave us an example URL that wasn't reported in WMT, or in any of the other link reporting tools (sneaky Google). But Marie used the link as a clue and found 5 other URLs with the same scraped content. We quickly got those links removed, submitted another reconsideration request, and voila, the penalty was revoked. It definitely took a lot of work.
Marie is very knowledgable as a link analysis and penalty expert and is deeply committed to her customers. The nice thing about working with her is that you pay her once, and she will work until your penally is revoked, no matter how many reconsideration requests she has to file.
I highly recommend Marie and hiswebmarketing.com
Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Thanks for the kind words Michael.
Your site was one of the most difficult ones that we have dealt with. For some reason Google was extremely picky. But, I think that it was important that Google made us find close to ever possible unnatural link. We're already seeing improvements in your traffic and I expect that when Penguin refreshes you'll see even more.

Thanks for including us in your search! I just wanted to clarify one point. Although we base our quotes on the number of linking domains listed in ahrefs.com, we use links from every source we can find including WMT, Majestic SEO, Open Site Explorer and our own tool that finds links that are in the Google index but not in the above mentioned backlink checkers.
I'm happy to answer any other questions you may have. We do honest work and we are very good at removing penalties.

I inherited a nasty case of bad link building and 3-way link schemes I had to deal with midway through 2013. I carefully vetted dozens of "experts". I went with Marie and her team at hiswebmarketing.com and have have no regrets.
The manual process they use is strictly by the book. You'll also have an opportunity to review your bad links to make sure you don't lose any good juice. Considering all of the manual labor and documentation required, I think their price was more than fair compared to the competition. I thought the penalty was a death sentence but it's been revoked and I'm back on page 1-3 (depending on market) for the main keyword I was penalized for.
I'm pretty confident that if you go with hiswebmarketing.com your penalty will get revoked.

Are large property portals going to continue to dominate Google's search results?
We are having a discussion (potential argument) in our office around whether large portals (namely property portals) have longevity in Google's search. Argument 1:
Industry News | | NeilPursey
Google's rise in local search and rewarding strong brand names rather than keyword driven domain names will devalue property portals with keyword rich domain names. Property portals are essentially duplicating content on smaller individually owned property websites, therefore in time Google will devalue property portals. **Argument 2: **
Property portals have more property stock listed on their websites so therefore Google will reward them by ranking these websites higher than the smaller real estate agencies with niche stock in their areas that they operate in. The property portals that already are already in a dominate position already carry authority and their own sense of branding, therefore it's difficult for Google to ignore them. If we assume that Google is looking into user behaviour as a ranking factor, then this will help portals as they have more stock which means higher engagement on the website. I'd love to read the moz community thoughts and opinions on this. I reckon it's a worthy debate..0 -
Question on 100% 'not provided' what are people seeing?
I've been curious what other SEO professionals have been seeing in their own analytics since the industry news came out that Google has gone to "100% not provided." I've definitely seen a steady rise in 'not provided' data across the board since about July but no sudden spikes and still not 100%. Looking at one specific website this morning for the month of October to date in GA, and segmenting out organic traffic from just Google, I'm seeing about 85% not provided. Looking at just today (Monday) it is 88%. So over time it is definitely trending up, and I expect it will be greater than 90% by the end of October. Just curious if that is consistent with what others are seeing? Has anyone truly gotten to 100% of Google Organic traffic at 100%?

Anyone drawn a Google Penguin?
Just a bit of light relief in the world of SEO. Hey SEO people are funny and can laugh as well 🙂 Our SEO team has had a go at drawing some penguins and the results are funny to us as they are so childlike. Anyone else fancy adding their drawing to the flicker group. This is just a bit of fun for us all! http://www.flickr.com/groups/googlepenguincartoons/

Google Product Feeds - New Requirements
We are in the jewelry industry, and for Google product feeds, we list our products under "Apparel & Accessories > Jewelry". As of the new Google feed requirements, they are saying that we have to choose a gender and color for each product that is in the Apparel category. While this makes sense for clothes, it doesn't exactly for jewelry because many items are for both men and women, and there's not always a color associated with each product. I can enter some of these fields manually, but with 5,000+ products, it makes it difficult w/ each update. Anyone have solutions for this? Or a way around it? Can we just include those fields but leave them blank? Any other solutions?
