DIAGNOSE MY GOOGLE PENALTY

Do you need a penalty diagnosis service?

Today the emphasis that Google places on quality control means they have committed significant resources into developing both an expanding list of manual penalties and ongoing algorithm updates which aim to punish sites that don't adhere to their guidelines.

It's surprisingly easy to get caught by one of these updates. While a manual penalty can be easy to identify if you've already signed up to Google Search Console (formerly Webmaster Tools), it can be quite difficult to know exactly which update your site has fallen victim to, especially if you've not signed up to Search Console, the effect the algorithm update has on your site is subtle or it compounds over time.

Penalties are a painful experience for any business, especially if you rely on your site for customers.

If you suspect you’ve been hit by a penalty, it should be a top priority to identify it, establish the cause and recover your rankings as quickly as possible.

How we can help 

We’re an SEO recovery team that focuses on rescuing sites from Google penalties. Our role is to identify the problem, create a recovery plan and help put your business back on the road to search engine success. Drawing on a range of skills from technical to content we can analyse the drop or drops in traffic and/or rankings, comparing them to the various algorithm updates and how they impacted other sites. Penalties tend to have highly specific effects, and we’ve become experts at recognising them. 

Our diagnosis usually starts with a forensic analysis of your site analytics and historical keyphrase ranking patterns. Once we’ve established a pattern, we work backwards to identify exactly which penalty you've been hit by or which update has affected you. Our forensic analysis uncovers any problems that might be holding your site back, so if the problem isn’t a penalty, we can help you come up with a plan to recover as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
