Not to belittle your experience, but it seems this may be a bit of a negative feedback loop. Haven't updated the homepage because "what's the point I'm already punished" etc...
- WalterGR 6y agoI spent 80 hours a week from when the penalties started in 2011 until I went broke and got outside employment in 2014. I’ve worked on it for years worth of time since then, including updating the home page. (It’s a content site. Updating the home page is a thing, but people come to the site via searches for slang terms, not for the home page...) There is nothing I can do with the manual penalty in place, and it doesn’t make sense to throw good time after bad. It’s been 9 years since the penalties started and there’s been no improvement since then. Not only is it not healthy to continue banging my head against the wall of Google, since we’re on a site for a startup incubator: it doesn’t make monetary sense.
