Google  Penguin  2.0  Update

Penguin Update Overview On  May22nd  Google  launched  their  all  new  Penguin  2.0  algorithm  update  and  with  their  latest  assault  on  spam.    

Brand  men<ons  could  play  a  stronger  role  going  forward,  i.e.  brand  men<ons  that  are  not  links  There  is  a  chance  social  signals  could  play  a  more  important  role  in  Penguin  2.0  but  currently  this  is  just  specula<on  

Whilst  it  is  far  too  early  to  determine  the  exact  levers  that  Google  has  tweaked  with  Penguin  2.0,  early  indicators  are:    Numerous  link  networks  have  been  devalued  Bad  link  neighbourhoods  have  been  devalued  Link  velocity  –  link  spikes  may  be  ignored  and  steady  link  grow  threwarded  Link  trust  will  become  an  even  more  important  factor  with  less  trustworthy  link  sources  being  devalued  Further  anchor  text  devalua<on.  The  thresholds  on  the  levels  of  generic  anchor  text  usage  have  increased  Contextual  relevancy  will  become  more  important  and  links  that  are  not  contextually  relevant  have  had  their  value  decreased

What does Penguin 2.0 mean for you? Firstly,  let’s  be  really  clear.  Penguin  2.0  is  not  a  penalty;  it  is  an  algorithm  update.    We  have  been  given  a  clear  indicator  that  Penguin  2.0  is  going  to  become  more  aggressive  over  <me  and  that  what  we  experienced  on  22nd  May  2013.  MaP  CuPs  *  from  Google  said  on  his  twiPer  feed  that  2.0  was  essen<ally  just  the  soR  launch.  So,  if  you  have  already  been  nega<vely  impacted  by  Penguin  2.0,  in  all  likelihood  the  impact  may  worsen  as  newer  versions  are  released.      If  you  haven’t  been  impacted  yet  it  doesn’t  mean  you’re  in  the  clear  -­‐  and  when  Google  releases  new  algorithm  releases  your  website  maybe  impacted  by  being  devalued  and  thus  lowered  in  the  organic  rankings.
