Google Penguin is an algorithm update launched by Google in April 2012 to combat webspam by penalizing websites using black-hat SEO tactics, particularly keyword stuffing and unnatural backlinks. Its goal was to promote high-quality content by demoting sites violating Google’s Webmaster Guidelines.
Penguin operates in real-time since 2016 (part of Google’s core algorithm), continuously evaluating links and content. Key features:
Targets manipulative links: Low-quality or paid backlinks trigger penalties.
Content relevance: Prioritizes natural keyword usage over forced repetition.
Algorithmic penalties: Affects rankings without manual reviews, though manual actions can still apply.
Impact: Many sites saw ranking drops, pushing SEO toward white-hat practices like organic link-building and user-focused content.
