    Google has just released another animal into the virtual plane that apparently terrorized small content-based websites.
    Dubbed the “Google Penguin”, this algorithm is programmed to penalize websites undertaking black hat SEO tactics and those with otherwise low-quality content.
    As usual, Google’s fight against web spamming has resulted in the unprecedented crash of established websites from their previously held rankings.

    Google Penguin was the update where everyone's site ranked #1 for its keywords simultaneously. It was absolute cyber mayhem.

    Penguin is NOT an algo update, it is a filter. Panda was the algo update and is continuously being refreshed.

    Google Penguin is a code name for a Google algorithm update that was first announced on April 24, 2012. The update is aimed at decreasing search engine rankings of websites that violate Google’s Webmaster Guidelines by using black-hat SEO techniques such as keyword stuffing, cloaking, participating in link schemes, deliberate creation of duplicate content, and others.

    Google Penguin is a new code name for google algorithm update. It is an over-optimising penalty that focuses on trying to stop low quality websites from appearing towards the top of high quality websites.

    Penguin is NOT an algo update. It is a filter. It is NOT an over optimization penalty. People who are saying that are providing really bad info. It imply is not true. There is increasing evidence that penguin is mostly a manually applied filer and not an algorithmically applied filter. But people believe what they want to believe despite all evidence to the contrary.
