Google Penguin WaddleGoogle's 2.0 Penguin update went live over 3 months ago and we ran a poll shortly after asking how many of you were impacted by this Penguin update.

We had almost 1,500 responses since launching the poll and the results were pretty significant.

The question was: How Were You Impacted By Google Penguin 2.0?

The results:

  • 53% said I Was Hit By Penguin 2.0
  • 19% said I Was Hit By Penguin 1.0 & Did Not Recover With Penguin 2.0
  • 4% said I Recovered From Penguin 1.0
  • 24% said they were not impacted by any Penguin update

Here is the pie chart:

Tomorrow I will share the did you recover from Penguin 2.0 results.

Forum discussion continued at Google+, Cre8asite Forums, WebmasterWorld, DigitalPoint Forums, Black Hat World and Google Webmaster Help.

Disclaimer: Please see my poll disclaimer post before coming to any conclusions on these results.

This story was scheduled to be posted today and was not written today, as I am offline today.
