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
Dominic

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.

Reciprocal links now cancel out any benefit say Google. But what about if one of them is nofollow?
As a web agency we have some of our client sites linking back to us from their footer to show who built the site as is common practice in our industry. This seems to work fine for us generating both referral traffic and we think some help with rankings. Google recently said that reciprocal links do cancel each other out of any benefit which gives us a dilemma for when we want to link to a website as a case study on our own website. Normally we use nofollow on the link but is that enough? I'd rather have the inbound link benefit than provide a link to the website!

Disavow data for non-manual penalty
I'm working on cleaning link profile for a client. He has lots of crappy links pointing to his site. I tried to contact site owners so that they remove those links. No go for the most part. Since it's not a manual penalty, there's no need to specify when exactly I tried to contact those site owners, add emails to my disavow file, etc. It's my understanding that it's OK to just add domains to Google's disavow tool to submit because there was no manual action and it won't be checked by a human being. Would that be the right way to go?

Google Reconsideration Response Time
Hi all, 3 of my websites have received a massive hit from Penguin/Panda due to exact phrase links. I have had all the links changed so that they are completely different, and submitted a reconsideration request to Google. Would anyone be able to tell me roughly how long it takes to get a response from a Google reconsideration request? Thanks, Anthony

3-Way Link Exchange Method - Does it Work?
Hello People, I have been searching for a service to help us with our link building and have been talking to a company that uses the 3-Way link exchange method and my question is: Does it work well? Below I pasted an email from this company explaining their method. Thanks in advance to everyone! =============================== Our success rate is about 80%. For one way links, we use 3 way link exchange method for making links. Suppose your site is A. My website is B. My friends website is C and friend's client's site is D. I will add a link on B linking to D and my friend will add a link on C linking to A. This is the procedure we use for making links. We check the quality of the website before putting link on it. The site will be completely relevant, no spam links will present there and the page will be minimum of PR1. ================================

Directory Submission for 5 month old website
Hey guys. I recently started doing a directory submission program for new website. Right now I am submitting to 20 directories per day, as well as social bookmarking around 10 blog posts per day. I noticed a small drop in our Google rankings since doing this. Is this because it is too much? Or is it just Google re-adjusting itself to cope with the changes. As ever, really appriciate the help I get off the guys on here. Big love to you all 🙂

What is the length for Open Explorer and/or Google to pick up on Blogroll links?
I'm just a little curious about this and thought I would make use of the new Q&A system. This is my first open question. I recently acquired some blogroll links on 3 fairly popular and well trafficked sites, some with more authority and pages than mine (Get Right Music). I was wondering if anyone is familiar with the time frame in which I should start to see that affect my rankings in Google. Also, the time frame when I should start to see those domain links appear in Open Site Explorer. I'm just curious. Thanks everyone. Jesse
