Post-Penguin Anchor Text Case Study
1/16/2013 It's no secret that Google's Panda and Penguin updates caused a lot of panic. Although I'm pretty turned off to information about these updates, I've been really interested in the anchor text issues surrounding the Penguin update. If sites that have over-optimized anchors lost traffic due to the update, it seems to make sense that sites can move up with relatively few (or without any) anchored links. I wanted to test that idea and decided that it was time for a good, old fashioned case study.
