There are so many mixed views out there that it really comes down to someone having to make a guess at it really. Just want to get some views from you guys here.....

Will a site be penalised for unnatural growth? eg if someone adds 5 or 6 blog posts a week in the first couple of months of the sites life.How fast will google allow a site to grow without penalising it?

Will a site be penalised for building backlinks too quickly? eg say a link to a post gets retweeted very often or there are many links from forums etc within the first couple of days (or weeks) of making the blog post.

Will google penalise just the page or will it penalise the whole site?

If a page or site is penalised how long until google will lift the penalty or is it gone forever? ]]> Search Engine Optimization lav http://www.small-business-forum.net/search-engine-optimization/3422-google-penalties-fact-fiction.html http://www.small-business-forum.net/search-engine-optimization/3408-using-domain-name.html Fri, 20 Aug 2010 18:32:56 GMT I was not sure where to put this question exactley... It belongs more to some kind of "user experience" than SEO but you will understand...

I couldn't find an appropriate domain name for my site free so I ended up having "the" prefix which is semantically and SEOwise absolutely acceptable.

But what about user experience? What if Facebook.com was TheFacebook.com

Did anyone ever meet this problem or thought about it...? ]]> Search Engine Optimization Superbad http://www.small-business-forum.net/search-engine-optimization/3408-using-domain-name.html
