Question concerning a freelance article link

[MountainMedia]

Hey fellow Mozzers,
I was performing a link audit for a client and came across a link linking to a deep page for our client with the link being anchored to a targeted keyword. It's a freelance article that is well written and deals with our client's industry but indirectly. The page has no PR but decent PA and DA. My question is, is there the possibility that Penguin would consider it spammy? The link is located in the author tagline at the bottom of the article. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks!

Hi There

I would look at the page as a whole - and the anchors coming to it - http://moz.com/researchtools/ose/links?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.familyfootwearcenter.com%2FWolverine-Boots-c38.html

The reason it may be an issue, is that in my 10 seconds eyeballing that report I can sense a pattern. And that's exactly what Google is looking for. A pattern of 'link building' activities to try and boost that page for 'wolverine boots'. The problem is the page doesn't appear to have many (or any) natural links or natural anchor text. So I'd work on the page as a whole to reduce unnatural links into it. You can also dig deeper with Webmaster Tools to get more in depth than OSE will show.

Can you share the link ? (to see the format, approach and the organic visibility of the domain that is hosting the article.)

Cheers.
