What are the effects of being penalised by Google?
A complete Google website ban is possible. But it’s far more likely that:
- Google penalties will lower your rankings on Search Engine Results Pages
- You’ll see a big decrease in traffic on your website
- You’ll spot a drop off in the number leads and conversions you generate
- You’ll notice a significant loss of business which your website gets you
What are the different types of Google Penalties?
Google’s Panda and Penguin algorithms exact harsh penalties which include:
Thin content penalty
A lot of spun copy. Automatically generated content. Pages that have near-to or zero unique information on them.
You might not get banned from Google for this. But the Panda algorithm means you need to adjust your practices. Now. Otherwise, you run the risk of serious automatic penalties.
Pure spam penalty
This is the kind of bad practice Google really hates. It can include everything from cloaking your content (where a user sees different words and images than Google’s search spiders) to automated content creation or scraping content from other sites. You can get a Google ban with little-to-no messing around with these kinds of practices.
If you’re getting caught for the first time, you might be able to persuade Google that you’re sorry. If you show that you’ve put right all of the problems.
Unnatural links penalty
Gone are the days when you could buy a bunch of links which pointed to your site and count on them to boost your rankings. Google Penguin penalises sites which do this. You can also be punished (rightly) if you sell links from your site.
Bad link removal will be the place to start when it comes to fixing things.
