Thrust SEO Offers ‘Panda’ Recovery Service for Adult Websites

TORONTO — SEO marketing agency, Thrust SEO, has announced its launch of new services targeting adult websites negatively impacted by Google’s “Panda” updates.

According to the company, Thrust SEO offers its adult clients so-called “white-hat” search engine optimization (SEO), intended to raise a website’s visibility in search engine results, by implementing campaigns that go beyond link building and meta tag editing to provide “absolutely everything you need to get serious search engine love.”

“Panda changed the game, with Google penalizing major sites like Overstock.com for ‘shady’ link building practices,” Thrust SEO COO Chris Shaw stated. “Smaller websites also saw their rank drop because they didn’t measure up to Google’s new ranking factors.”

Many adult websites saw their Google traffic levels plummet in the wake of the Panda updates, fueling the need for specialized changes designed to work within the new rules.

Shaw says that Thrust SEO’s Panda-compliant service “lets adult businesses capture search traffic in a leveled playing field.”

Thrust SEO bundles its Panda-friendly search engine optimization services in a package entitled, “The Whole Shebang.” In addition to link building, SEO copywriting and video SEO, it includes landing page and content strategy development to accommodate Panda’s demand for informative, quality content.

“The multimedia optimization features should appeal to adult content providers, while the remaining 15+ features address the SEO needs of adult retailers, venues, escort agencies, and adult content websites,” Shaw concluded. “Our goal is help adult businesses get a better position in search engines in order to take advantage of traffic that many businesses leave on the table for their competitors.”
