Penguin traffic loss! What can I do?

Looks like one of my sites took a big hit from the Penguin update recently. I'm down like 50% from search engine traffic. What can I do to get traffic back from this penguin traffic loss?

Many people are now starting new sites and leaving current sites as they may bounce back stronger in the next google update

That pinguin update only attacks over optimization in websites. Try to vary anchor text so it looks more natural and not so spammy. You can use synonyms

change the content and avoid excessive links - internal links and repeat of keywords.

How can you be so sure that it was the Penguin update that caused the traffic loss to your site? With the traffic coming from the search engine there are many factors to consider. First is the SEO of your site and second is the SEO of the competitors. If the competitors are surging ahead and your site goes down in the ranking then that is a clear reason for the reduction of traffic that you get from the search engines.
