Half Of SEOs Are Satisfied With Google's Chrome Penalty

Apr 13, 2012 - 8:28 am 1 by

Google's Chrome Penalty Poll ResultsRight after the new year, Google was caught in a paid link scandal and they handled it by penalizing Chrome in the Google search results for a little over 60 days.

That penalty is now lifted but I wanted to share the poll where we asked "Are You Satisfied With Google's Response On Chrome?" We have over 250 responses and here is the break down:

  • 50% Said Yes
  • 30% Said It Is Not Enough, they want a harsher longer penalty
  • 20% Said It Is Too Harsh, they wanted less of a penalty

To catch up on this debate, see our previous post.

Forum discussion continued at WebmasterWorld & Google+.

This was written yesterday and scheduled to be posted today.
