The 10 Google Panda ranking factors

On August 12th 2011, Google rolled out globally the new Panda algorithm. But do we really know what Google Panda is all about? In a nutshell, the new algorithm lowers the rank of low quality websites in search results, hence, focus on creating quality content. The algorithm will rank higher websites that publish fresh and quality content on a regular basis. I have been blogging about the importance of quality content since the inception of this blog. Get it clear in to your brain, the only way to get GREAT results from your SEO strategy is to produce interesting content, teach people do not just tell them news.

This is a great infographic by Custard Media that describes the 10 Google Panda ranking factors. Most of them have been discussed in many of my previous posts and I would strongly suggest you start benchmarking your websites against them.

Post-Panda, it isn’t just about putting up new quality content. You should also remove pages that have low-quality content–they will drag down your rating for the whole site.

I do not think you need to delete any content, try to optimize it instead, every single post counts.
