Hi
We have a client Mother of the Bride Outfits, Dresses Scotland | Frox Of Falkirk Ltd who has been ranking really well for many years now, most main keywords in top 5 in google.co.uk
Last year website didn't see any major drops in rankings when penguin and panda where released, traffic did drop but it seem to drop gradually over the year. 17th Jan this year, rankings for the clients main keywords all took massive drop, and later in Jan took even further drop. Most keywords now pages 20-30+ upwards.
Last year we removed a lot of links - that where generated from an article distribution service, we managed to get all these links removed. Now using ahrefs, majestic, open site explorer and links from google webmaster tools, ive had a good look through, generally speaking I think the links look ok, their is many quality relevant links pointing to the website.
I did find some site-wide comments, and social links, which are spammy (we didn't build these) but most of them seem to be nofollow so not sure if they will cause much problems. These links have pushed the % of anchor text up quite high.
The website itself on-site couldn't find any major issues, apart from their is not much on the website, mostly photos, but didn't think that would affect such as large drop
I think its penguin related
any advise people can give would be great
