- AznHisoka 14y agoYes, and in the process also taking out innocent websites as well. This isn't an algorithm update against "bad" websites. It's an algorithm update that negatively affects websites that fit a certain pattern - and you can fit that pattern without even being shady. For example, if someone doing negative SEO by blasting 10,000 bad, spammy links pointing to your website - the penguin update penalizes your site. Even if your site is about helping cancer patients, or feeding Africa.
- nicksergeant 14y agoNo, anyone can create a "junk website" and point a bunch of links to your legitimate website and get you docked. That should be concerning to you.
