A year after the Google Panda update, is content any better?
A year ago, Google announced something that made the real journalists and publications on the internet cheer and sent shivers of fear down the spines of spammer and content farmers. The “Panda Update” was designed to take low-quality, “thin” content that is often found on sites like HuffPo and eHow and reduce the rankings (and therefore the traffic) that Google gave them.
Those who were unaffected rejoiced. Those who were hit cried fowl. Google went through several iterations and course corrections with some sites getting vindicated, but it hurt many beyond repair. Yahoo was one who was notably hit and had to shelve their Associated Content site.
This infographic from Search Engine Land explores the effects of the update as well as the various versions that have come in it’s first year. The real question that needs to be asked, “Is the content Google serves now better than it was a year ago?”

Yes. My content is fantastic and I believe I deserve all of the new traffic. I would like to pat myself on the back for achieving results with google. I love Google’s webmaster site, google anal ytics and youtube videos by M Cutts. My life is now compete with Google. I could not live without their guidance for the web.
The most important thing about this update is link evaluation. According to my knowledge Google will strictly assess all dead links and active links of websites. Then according to that they will rank each site. So better we should remove all dead links from our blogs. Thanks for bringing this post to us.
