Re: Google Penalty - Purchased Auction Site

Hi Adam

It can take up to 48 hours. Just hang in and check the account after that period. Also remember to add both the www. and non-www. version to GWT.

Re: Backlinks from site with penguin penalty

I'd say no, there isn't a risk in the odd link from a Penguin penalised site. If 90% of your links come from such sites, then yes you may have a problem.

Hi Fanta81

The most commonly used tool for this sort of thing is called Hootsuite. You can manage most popular platforms and it's free (at least to start with).
