A plethora of affiliates in our industry felt some sort of impact from last spring’s Google Penguin update. In the months since, webmasters have been scrambling to clean-up link networks and revamp SEO strategies to be Post-Penguin-Friendly. But once you’ve poured in all of this work, how long should you wait before your Penguin fixes kick-in?
How Long Before Penguin Fixes Kick In?
From our SEO Roundtable… apparently the best solution is to wait it out…
What have you seen from your Penguin fixes? Anything at all worth mentioning?
I think that line “Wait it out” is not the best course of action. I have waited it out almost 7 months now and even when your on rev share month after month it decreases over time.
What i have done is just made fixes before each update and move on to new sites.
I know at one time we depended on one single site to send 200 deposits about 70% at the time – and that was our mistake.
Now were focused on 3-4 websites and moved onto other areas – backup plan!
Still the site has not got back its rankings – and its a disgrace some of the serps right now with sites having nothing to do with topic of the keyword search…
I have done many new recent changes – adding new content – removing L’s and have saw some movement but overall I have a feeling once your hit – your hit for good.
I really do not see anyone fully recovering in the gambling sector.
I think it’s pretty clear that nobody has an answer to this question, so all the suggestions, are simply speculations. If your website was hit hard from the updates, it will probably take longer to recover, than those websites that had fewer bad links.
As far as creating a new website every time you get penalized is not really the answer, as it takes so much time, and tons of money to get traffic to the new site.

I guess what I meant was creating a larger network of sites so you do not have to depend on one or two… of course it costs money – but to make money you have to spend money.
Haha i will be doing this for 10-15 more years at least i got lots of time
Not a good idea to put all eggs in one basket but IMO webmasters should not run their website for google but do it for their audience.I know people who believe if you make too many changes to a website after a penalty it actually can make it worst.
I had a website that was under a couple manual penalties ,the only thing I did was link trades with some banned websites(not banned at the time) total of 9 links .I replied to google and told them any SEO stuff we did and about the 9 links with ‘authority’ websites .Within 7 weeks I got a reply and the penalties were off ,I notice that 7 of 9 sites came back as well.
I believe Google is still trying to automate their processes and in the meantime some of us are getting caught up.@casinobonusguy 245058 wrote:

Fully agree. I got sick and tired of changing the site over and over again, because google once again edited their parameters.
I now rely fully on my ad and social campaigns and only change the site when I think it’s better for my visitors. Results are good and stress is reduced to zero
