Recover Your Penalised Website with Expert SEO Support

If your site has been penalised by Google or other search engines, Page is here to help. With years of experience in organic SEO and a spotless record of never causing penalties, we specialise in resolving these complex issues effectively and ethically.

How To Handle a Penalised Website

A penalisation occurs when search engines intentionally lower a website’s ranking in search results due to certain issues, such as content quality, linking practices, or technical factors. Unlike a full ban, where a site is removed entirely from search engine indexes, a penalised site is still visible—but often far from the top, buried where potential customers are unlikely to find it. This situation can significantly impact your traffic, conversions, and revenue.

Websites can be penalised for a number of reasons, including:

  • Outdated SEO practices,
  • Spammy backlinks,
  • Or content that doesn’t align with search engine guidelines.
 
Sometimes, these issues arise from prior SEO work that was unintentionally damaging or “black-hat” techniques that violate search engines’ standards. Whatever the reason, a penalisation pushes your site out of meaningful search results, making it nearly impossible to attract organic traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a website penalty?

A website penalty is a punishment from search engines, typically Google, that lowers your site’s rankings due to violating their guidelines.

Penalties can result from spammy backlinks, keyword stuffing, thin or duplicate content, cloaking, or using other black-hat SEO tactics.

You may notice a sudden drop in rankings or traffic. Check Google Search Console for any manual action notifications or use analytics tools to track changes.

Manual penalties are issued by Google’s human reviewers, while algorithmic penalties happen automatically due to updates like Google Penguin or Panda.

Yes, but it requires identifying and fixing the issue, then submitting a reconsideration request (for manual penalties) or waiting for Google to reassess (for algorithmic issues).

Recovery time varies—it can take weeks to months depending on the severity of the penalty and how quickly you fix the problems.

Yes, especially for complex issues involving backlinks or technical SEO. An expert can speed up recovery and prevent future penalties.
