Types of Google penalties we handle
Manual Actions
Issued by Google, often for unnatural links, spammy content, or manipulative tactics. These show up in Search Console and require immediate, thorough action.
Algorithmic Penalties
Triggered by Google updates – commonly due to thin content, keyword stuffing, dodgy backlinks, or over-optimised pages. Trickier to diagnose, but we’re used to connecting the dots.
De-indexing
The most severe outcome – your site disappears from Google entirely. We’ve helped brands come back from this. It takes work, but it’s absolutely possible.
Can you recover from a Google penalty?
Yes. But only with the right plan, the right people, and the right actions.
Many businesses not only recover – they grow stronger. The key is to act fast, be honest about what went wrong, and commit to long-term improvements.
How much does penalty recovery cost?
Every website is different – but here’s a rough guide:
- Penalty recovery audit: from £3,500
- Full recovery & reconsideration support: from £5,000
- Ongoing monitoring and support: tailored to your needs
How long does recovery take?
Every situation is different. But most recoveries take 4-12 weeks from diagnosis to implementing the resolution. Some are quicker. Some take longer – especially when multiple issues are at play.
