Google Penalty Recovery Services – Google Penalty Removal

Google penalties are serious business. They have enough of an impact that, after receiving one, 40% of online businesses close down within half a year, with less than a third of penalised websites able to recover their previous rankings within a year of being penalised.

And the worst part is that you can’t always protect yourself from a penalty in time.

However, there’s hope on the horizon. With the help of the expert Google penalty recovery services that Digital Glory offers, you can come back stronger than before and guard yourself against future penalties of the same nature.

What is Google penalty recovery?

Before we dive into the deeper topics, let’s establish some basics first.

A Google penalty is a type of ‘punishment’ that’s applied to websites by Google to discourage certain behaviours. In particular, Google penalises sites that it perceives as engaging in spammy tactics or other types of black-hat SEO instead of honest white-hat SEO.

Penalty recovery focuses on helping sites regain their previous rankings after they’ve been penalised. It usually involves diagnosing the reason for the penalty, then ensuring that this reason is addressed fully so Google’s algorithm starts ranking the site well again.

Why have I been penalised by Google?

We know it can be deeply frustrating to see a sudden, sharp drop in organic website traffic and be unsure why Google’s algorithm has decided to give you that penalty. That’s why we’ve collected some of the most common reasons why it might do that.

Digital Glory can help you recover from any of these penalties – we just want to help you understand your situation to hopefully alleviate some of that frustration.

Their algorithm has changed

The first, and perhaps most grating, reason why you could have been penalised is very simple: Google’s algorithm is always evolving. A new change might have suddenly made your site appear to be in need of a penalty even if that wasn’t the case last week.

Of course, Google doesn’t do this to try and hurt you. On the contrary – the updates are implemented to improve the searching experience for everyone. Their main goal is to promote the best content and give no attention to poor, useless, or irrelevant content.

All the same, as changes are rolled out, good-quality sites can be affected by accident.

Your link network needs reworking

If you’ve heard of Google Penguin, an algorithm update that brought about new penalties when it was first introduced, this is what it’s concerned with.

Penguin was created to address the problem of sites building poor-quality links and using spammy link practices. These sites provide a negative user experience, as they exist to be promotional rather than to offer value to readers.

Your own network of links might not be spammy, but it could still be picked up for this reason if your linking practices need work.

Your content is too thin

Pages with very little content don’t read well to Google’s algorithm. Remember: Google wants to promote pages with high-quality content that satisfy the needs of searchers. As a result, it works to push these pages up while pushing down ones that don’t fit that bill.

If your pages are populated with too many ads and too little useful content, Google’s Panda update will often target you with a penalty.

You’ve been relying on AI

Google loves fresh, original, high-quality content. By its nature, generative AI doesn’t create this – it can’t ‘think’, as it’s built to combine existing components according to the requests of users.

If your pages are all full of AI-generated images and text, Google will be more likely to single you out for a penalty.

    FAQs

    Finally, let’s answer some common questions associated with Google penalties.

    Why is Google penalising my website?

    There are a few main reasons why Google applies penalties to websites that previously ranked well. Some are more mundane – the algorithm could simply have gone through an update. Others are more serious, being targeted at websites that use black-hat SEO tactics. The specific reason why your website was penalised will depend on a number of factors and can usually be deduced by experts like our team at Digital Glory.

    Can I recover from a Google penalty?

    Thankfully, it’s very much possible to recover from a Google penalty. You can choose to simply wait the penalty out, though this runs the risk of it being reapplied again at a later date.

    For a more long-term solution, you can address the root of the problem with the help of experts like our team at Digital Glory. We can figure out the cause for the penalty, then work on your website to make sure it’s not penalised a second time later on.

    How can I tell if Google is penalising me?

    A common sign that you’ve been penalised is a sharp drop in website traffic. If you look up keywords you’d normally rank for and can’t find your website in or near the rank it should be, that’s also a clear sign, especially if you can find it on a much later page. Google Search Console may also give you a notification, or you may experience a drop in indexed pages.

    How long does a Google penalty last?

    That depends on the nature of the penalty. A general estimate is that the low end of the penalty spectrum sits at about 10 days, with the high end being at around 30 days. So, in other words, a hefty penalty will severely restrict your site’s organic traffic for a whole month.
