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 We quickly got those links removed, submitted another reconsideration request, and voila, the penalty was revoked.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.

The "Fetch As Google" limit has been decreased - what now?
Since Google decreased the "Fetch As Google" limit to ten pages per day, we've been a bit stuck. We're publishing 20-30 content pages per day, targeting a huge range of search queries. Circa 40% of our traffic comes to us through these pages. Since we're now heavily restricted on submitting these to Google, who's got other ideas to get the pages picked up quickly? I'm slightly concerned because although the pages link outwards to other areas of the website, no other areas of the site link to these pages. They're purely top-of-the-funnel. We can't be the only people with this concern. How would you address it?

Is this a violation of Google guidelines and current industry best practices correct? Regarding Iran Facts
I have read Moz for a good deal of time but I have never been gotten involved, until now... While watching a YouTube video in the app on my smartphone an Advertisement came on Still screen shots located on my website www.dleichtweis.com This is a video of the advertisement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCQFm7PjWb8 I have reason to believing this is a violation of numerous polices, procedures, conditions and or best practices. I value Moz as a communities opinion. Google has been contacted in regards to this https://www.en.adwords-community.com/t5/Ad-Approvals-and-Advertising/I-want-answers-to-issue-Re-3-8187000002180/m-p/278355#M14740 I value your response.

Did Google Search Just Get Crazy Local?
Hey All, I think it's a known fact at this point that when signed into a personal Google account while doing a search, the results are very oriented around keywords and phrases you have already searched for, as well as your account's perceived location; for instance when I wanted to check one of my own web properties in SE listings I would sign out or it would likely appear first as a false reading. Today I noticed something very interesting: even when not signed in, Google's listings were giving precedence to locality. It was to a very extreme degree, as in when searching for "web design," a firm a mile away ranked higher than one 1.5 miles away and such. It would seem that the algos having this high a level of location sensitivity and preference would actually be a boon for the little guys, which is, I assume why it was implemented. However, it brings up a couple of interesting questions for me. 1. How is this going to affect Moz (or any SE ranking platform, for that matter) reports? I assume that Google pulls locations from IP Addresses, therefore would it not simply pull the local results most relevant for the Moz server(s) IP? 2. What can one do to rise above this aggressive level of location based search? I mean, my site (which has a DA of 37 and a PA of 48) appears above sites like webdesign.org (DA of 82, PA of 85). Not that I'm complaining at the moment, but I could see this being a fairly big deal for larger firms looking to rank on a national level. What gives? I'd love to get some opinions from the community here if anyone else has noticed this...

Get Google To Crawl More Pages Faster on my Site
We opened our database of about 10 million businesses to be crawled by Google. Since Wednesday, Google has crawled and indexed about 2,000 pages. Google is crawling us at about 1,000 pages a day now. We need to substantially increase this amount. Is it possible to get Google to crawl our sites at a quicker rate?

Why Does OSE (Open Site Explorer) have such little backlink data on russian sites in the google.ru index?
OK this seems v strange, but google.ru are indexing far more BLs in their SERPS for a widget than OSE reports. Very little data is found in OSE for russian based sites. Is this the marketing intention? (I could send raw data if needed!) What is filtering this vast google.ru data list out? Is OSE only catered for US/UK?

Chrome blocked sites used by Googles Panda update
Google's Panda update said it used Chrome users blocked sites lists as a benchmark for what they now term poor quality content. They said the Panda update effectively took about 85% of them out of the search results. This got me thinking, it would be very nice to discover what are the exact sites they don't like. Does anyone know if there is an archive of what these sites might be? Or if none exists, maybe if people could share their Chrome blocked sites on here we might get an idea?
