Avoiding Panda
Matt Cutts says: “we’re looking for high quality
content… the sort of content
that people really enjoy, that is
compelling, the sort of thing
that people love to read, that
you might see a magazine
or book…” -September 2013
What Should Site Owners Do To Avoid It?

Google’s Amit Singhal says:
Search is a complicated and evolving art and science, so rather than focusing on
specific algorithmic tweaks, we encourage you to focus on delivering the best
possible experience for users.
23 questions to ask about your site’s content quality:
1. Would you trust the information presented in this article?
2. Is this article written by an expert or enthusiast who knows the topic well, or is it
more shallow in nature?
3. Does the site have duplicate, overlapping, or redundant articles on the same or
similar topics with slightly different keyword variations?
4. Would you be comfortable giving your credit card information to this site?
5. Does this article have spelling, stylistic, or factual errors?

@SEngineLand
Separate URL / Domains
• m.domain.com or domain.mobi

Accessible
• On Desktop, use link rel="alternate" tag
• On Mobile, use link rel="canonical" tag
How?
<link rel="canonical" href="desktopurl" >
<link rel=”alternate” media=”only screen and (max-width: 640px)” href=“mobileurl”>

Separate URL / Domains
• Sitemaps Implementation
How?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<url><loc>desktopurlhere</loc><xhtml:linkrel="alternate"media="only screen and (max-width: 640px)"href="mobileurlhere" />
</url></urlset>

When Using Separate URLs:• redirect both desktop and mobile users to the appropriate page
• don’t redirect users if you don’t have an equivalent page
• redirect tablet users to the desktop version
• use a canonical value of the desktop URL
• use the rel=“alternate media” on the desktop version to specify the mobile version
• make sure the page loads quickly
• reduce unneeded redirects
• don’t keep the searcher from the content with an interstitial advertising your app
• Serve mobile & desktop users with either: • same URL (responsive design or dynamic serving)
• different URLs (mobile-specific pages)
• Use the Vary: User Agent HTTP header for:• pages that serve dynamic content based on device
• or that redirect to device-specific URLs
• Use the canonical attribute (to the desktop version)
