What is a Google Penalty?
The Most Common Causes for Google Penalties
As mentioned, Google Penalties are broadly applied when a website sits outside of Google’s marketing guidelines. This mistake can happen for a range of reasons, especially without expert oversight of online activities including link acquisition and content creation. However, the most common causes for Google penalties include:
- Unnatural links: Unnatural links that Google suspects to have been paid for or utilised as a part of a linking scheme are prone to Google penalties in some instances. This penalty may be localised to specific website pages or applied to entire websites depending on the extent and usage of links in question.
- Low quality/duplicate content: Automatically generated, low-quality content, or even duplicate content used without a disclaimer, can also result in Google penalties, as well as damaging notes that throw content value into question for consumers.
- Spam: While it’s less common to receive Google penalties for spam, excessive cloaking or spam-only websites can still lead to penalties, even for other sites on a host if that hosting site is linked to numerous spam incidences.
