Google calls penalties "Manual Sanctions" or "Manual Actions." These happen after real Google staff check your website. If they find you broke Google's rules, they might push your site down in search results or remove it completely. This can affect your whole website or just certain pages. Google tells you about these problems through Search Console.

The company reviews websites by hand to ensure fair play. Workers look at suspicious sites. If they catch you breaking their guidelines, they step in. Your pages could disappear from searches or show up much lower than before.

Google wants to keep search results helpful for users. They don't want spam or tricks taking over. That's why they have people checking sites that might cause problems. You'll know if you got a penalty because Google puts a notice right in your Search Console account. This gives you a chance to fix whatever went wrong before asking Google to look again.
