Protecting Sites from Penguin without Cutting Own Throat?
- SEO |
I manage many websites for small, local businesses. Although I pride myself on filling these sites with original, unique content, I've admittedly had exact match anchor text link building done for these sites to increase rankings in the past.
Most of my websites have been impacted by Penguin 2.0 and Penguin 2.1. I also feel that the websites that I own that have not been impacted by Penguin yet are at high risk for taking hits in future updates.
At this point, I am looking to find the best way to protect my websites.
I presume that the way forward is to gather a list of links we've had created on Web 2.0, forums, blogs, etc. with exact match anchor texts and disavow these.
However, because the loss of traffic and rankings we've experienced has already been quite severe, I'm afraid that the disavow tool will essentially kill whatever is left.
I really do just want to find out how to move forward in the best way possible, so please help guide me however you can. Thank you.
