Is this a panda penalty

Is this a panda penalty? A slow decline like this. http://imgur.com/a/YZz9h
I've checked for penguin and nothing there. I've tried creating new content and we moved to HTTPS and added Rel Canonical to duplicate product pages. If you have time how you go about recovering this site?

I'm in the process of adding new content. Yes, you're correct we need to work getting quality new links.
Thanks for the advice on the drop down menu.

Aaron,
It looks like the backlink profile has had some ups and downs over the last 12 months. There was a drop in Nov, then peaked around the end of May and has been dropping since. Now if you have been removing links this would explain quite a bit. In the last 60 days 48 domains removed links. You may be losing older links that could influence your organic traffic. Make sure you're always adding new, high-quality links.
I didn't see a blog, are you adding new content to the site?
Also, you should fix the 'our products' drop down menu, doesn't fit in all browsers. You can use browserstack to check this.
It doesn't look like a penalty, but keep adding links, just make sure they are quality links.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, Bernadette.
I've already did a disavowal file. The weird thing when I tool over the site didn't ahve webmaster tools set up so, I'm not sure if they had manual penalty. Any, ways I'll look further in to the link anchor text agin.

Aaron, looking at the site's links, and the type of links that the site has (targeted anchor text and the sites linking), it looks like it is an issue with the links. If you've already cleaned up the site's on-page content and looked for duplicate content, then I tend to think that it's the links.
Regardless, i would spend some time cleaning up (actually getting toxic and unnatural links removed) as well as disavowing the links that you cannot get cleaned up.

Getting indexed in Google Scholar
Hi all! We have a client who publishes scholarly research as a highly regarded non-profit. Their Publications aren't being indexed in Google Scholar 50% of the time and when they are, Google is pulling random stuff from a PDF vs. from the html page. Any advice on best practices is enormously appreciated

Google showing different links in SERPs
Google search results are showing my site links in both URLs, "mydomain.com" and "https://mydomain.com". However the one with https is showing a favicon, and the other one is not. So i wanna keep the https one and remove the other one. I went to GSC to submit "mydomain.com" for removal and it said that URL will be deleted in ALL of its variations.So how do i delete the "mydomain.com" links? Should i just index the ones with https again? Would that work? Someone suggested me to do 301 redirect on all pages that are being displayed twice. But i am not sure if i need to do that since i am using squarespace, and both of the links lead to the same page?

Google Fetch and Render - Partial result (resources temporarily unavailable)
Over the past few weeks, my website pages have been showing as partial in the Google Search Console. There are many resources/ files (js, css, images) that are 'temporarily unreachable'. The website files haven't had any structural changes for about 2 years (it historically has always shows as 'completed' and rendered absolutely fine in the search console). I have checked and the robots.txt is fine as is the sitemap. My host hasn't been very helpful, but has confirmed there are no server issues. My website rankings have now dropped which I think is due to these resources issues and I need to clear this issue up asap - can any one here offer any assistance? It would be hugely appreciated. Thanks, Dan

Getting indexed by Google scholar
Often my Google Scholar alerts result in exactly what I think they will: scholarly articles published in academic journals. However, today I got this completely non-scholarly article https://www.t-nation.com/training/the-exact-reps-that-make-you-grow and I have no idea why Google Scholar is indexing this site. I've read up on how to get indexed by Google Scholar, and this website doesn't seem to have the necessary requirements. I'm curious for anyone whose clients or industry need to get indexed by Google Scholar, what has worked for you?

What are the SEO challenges associated with private search engines, like DuckDuckGo?
I read recently that DuckDuckGo doubled in size in 2017. With their search engine, and other alternatives to Google, taking part of the search market away, how can SEO/Marketing/Web pros keep their websites optimized and get traffic from these private search engines? (Also, do any of you have experience with this? What portion of your search traffic is coming from private search engines?)
