Full story on Penguin Update
- SEO |
I got an email from Matt Carter about the update with a link to his blog:
The Google Penguin Update | Internet Marketing Secrets, Affiliate Marketing Blog, Affiliate Internet Marketing
I'm sure lots of you got this email or read it somewhere already but this is for those who missed it or still wondering what it's all about or why their website went down.
I know for sure why my sites went down, my content is quality and unique but not the backlinks. One thing I noticed is that sites that bumped me down search results are all Authority sites like MSN, Yahoo and big corporation sites.
On one hand it makes me think that Google changed their algorithm to get rid of all small sites
On the other hand, my sites didn't get wiped out completely (and yes they are all small niche sites), the just got bumped down and I know for a fact that I build some junk links to them.
My conclusion: niche sites still work but you need to have absolutely quality content and very quality backlinks. What do you guys think?
