My site and Penguin update

[animatronico]

I was #1 on 1st page of Google on my main keyword and also #1 in many keyword related to my niche.
After the update I went to #6 now I'm #4 on my main keyword.
I also had 100's of keywords related to my niche on first page of google.
with millions of competition. I got my site #1 only mostly using scrapbox only abit of on page SEO.

SO BELOW I'll explain what's happening NOW

when I started this site few years back the #1 site had the keyword on the domain with extention (.com) the #2 was wikipedia #3 was wikipedia #4
site had the keyword on the domain with extention (.co.uk) so I got myself a domain with the keyword with extension (.org) I used wordpress to create the site
used some SEO plugin like all in one seo etc.. did some onpage SEO but not over, no more them 100 words so didn't take me long to get on #5 them started doing some manual link building and eventually got to position 2 passing even wikipedia but not the the site with the keyword + .com on the domain name. them I got scrapbox
the best software I ever got. this got me to #1 position. I just used crap over spammed lists that I could get hold here and there. I'm too lazy to scrap myself :) I stayed in the top position for over 2 years I made xxxxx of $.
I survived the PANDA UPDATE with no changes to my Rank in Google.

PENGUIN UPDATE
after the penguin update my site dropped below the .com, 2 wikipidia pages, the .co.uk and I was placed @ #6

so I did some link building with (.edu and .gov) and so far it's working and I visited the number one site and noticed that they have about 10 same site link on the first page and a very good link structure with a two side bars full of same site related links. this site use the keyword on the domain and first page <title> like my site there is about 150 to 200 words no more. and the main keyword is not mentioned any where in the first page but all other word in the site is related to the niche like the site was created for the reader not the search engine.
my site have name on domain keyword on title, description, H1 and bold, link structure is not amazing, it's related but I could done a better job.
but I went to a good design. so my site is not too bad hit by the PENGUIN UPDATE because is not a bad site but I can see very clear that if wasn't for my backlinks I would be #4 anyway.
I will tweak my site based on the #1 site and I'm sure I'll be on the #1 spot again

We must fight back google. Do not use Google from now on. All webmasters should be united and we build our own search engine. Google is really make me sick. They are not fair in the business. They must let people know what Google really wants. My website is not really affected by the Penguin. Many of my websites are not affected. But I do not like Google. This is because Google is not fair in the business. We must leave Google and Go To Hell with Google.

The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do.
