Penguin 2.1- How Can You Save Your SEO Campaign?

Google-Penguin


Apart from technology and mobile apps, today, we will discuss about the Google's major algorithm Penguin which can influence your online marketing campaign.

Penguin 2.1 is the latest version of Google's penguin update as tweeted by Matt Cutts last night. It will greatly affect English search queries and inner pages. Not alike penguin 2.0, which only affected homepage and most of the keywords which were being targeted from homepage, Penguin 2.1 going to hit hard by exploring deeper pages as well.

Now it's time to follow some advanced strategies for online marketing. But what are those strategies?
The only thing which I have implemented and going to suggest here is DIVERSITY (broad base). We have seen in the past that sites which have low quality content and follow poor SEO strategy was hit harder by these kinds of updates. Suppose we have a keyword web development Brisbane and the link which we have built on site full of bad content then it will not going to help in SERP. What exactly is diversity?

1. Diversify you backlinks: The links which you are building should not only look natural, they should be built naturally. They should be built on the sites which have good content, which have good domain authority. Putting all eggs in a same basket is just a foolish way of promotion. 

2. Diversify your traffic: Targeting your keywords exactly making anchor tag is not a good technique rather introducing some sort of diversity can be a better way. Overall traffic on your site should be come from various sources.

At the end, the most important thing or you can say I have saved best for the last. That is:

3. Diversify your techniques:It is a fact that SEO is changing, but it is not dead. Put more emphasis on social media promotions, build some good social media profiles, increase your follower database, enhance your circle and after that promote your business.

My recommendation on Penguin 2.1 is, remove your bad links first, and add some quality links. Add some good content to your site, add trust not spam.
