The ongoing thread about Google Panda 4.0 at WebmasterWorld has an interesting post from someone who was hit by Panda a while back and is slowly recovering.

It is a pretty amazing post to read and honestly, it is a nice read. Let me share it here, but he shares more feedback in the thread:

Just a reminder, to take my Panda 4.0 poll if you have not.
