    Thanks for sharing Gab, so I just come to grips with what SEO is and then it all changes :)

    Maybe you could have a look at my site and drop me a line about what I should be doing next…. are what I can pay you to do for me ;)

    No need to pay. These new rules are affecting all of us.
    I will shoot you an email mate .

    I guess the issue is: defining awesomeness in the eyes of Google is kind of challenging.

    * Anyway, I love this infographic game, I will make one about FlyingSolo highlights and Dramas next ;)

    I am no SEO guy, but wasn’t this post Penguin too? Most sensible SEO peoples have been saying this for like 10 years?

    For what it’s worth I feel like an idiot for saying penguin…On the grand scheme of your business life short term seo changes are a blip….

    Well if you have an e-commerce business any SEO change is not a blip.

    Nice one Gab. I’ve just started creating infographics myself, Piktochart is a great tool for this. What are you using?

    I am also a victim of the Penguin!

    Google have been emailing me directly telling me to clean my link profile before they lift the over optimisation penalty I am dealing with for my main terms.

    I have cleaned up my profile to the best of my ability however there are a number of webmasters who simply do not reply.

    Fingers crossed Google release the link devalue tool in GWT sooner rather than later. Once I block the ‘inorganic’ links, it should be back to business! But not holding my breath!

    I don’t think that release will be soon I’m afraid….
    Are you aware that you can remove the % of “bad links” by increasing the % of good links?

    Hi seocourse,

    Actually I am aware of that, but I was thinking that because I have a manual penalty, then Google would want to see the ‘inorganic’ links removed as per their request. Is simply building new links going to make them happy considering I have a manual action?

    I guess it would make sense to build new links at the same time, but to be honest, I don’t know what is a safe link and what is not anymore :-(

    A bit challenging to give you tips without looking at your link profile, etc.

    Also you need to add in the equation:

    how much you want to work to get the good links
    how much you want to work t get the bad links off
    time willing to spend
    budget
    etc

    Not trying to be burst the bubble but there is not an easy-fast solution…
