I’ve had a site that was penalized once, and my advice/experience is exactly the same as Christian’s – just be as transparent and honest as possible. You might feel like Google is out to get you (I know I’ve felt like that before) but surprisingly Google is more than willing to help you as long as you make your site adhere to their guidelines.

I do have many personal experiences with site penalties.

The biggest takeaway I have is: be as transparent and as thorough as possible in the reconsideration request. Write dates. Share links to documents that “shows” your homework that you did. Google wants to see that you did as much as you could and spent time and resources towards fixing issues.

I want to ask you a question.

Do you have personal experience with a site being penalized and what is your key takeaway?

Kind regards,
Filip
