Protect Your Blog from Google Panda Update Hit

All of you surely know about the Panda and Penguin Updates. The first Google Panda Update release hits the 12% of sites and causes to take them down in the search engine index. The reason was obviously the blog or site's quality. From that time, high quality sites are getting up in rank and in the directory of search engine. After Google Panda updates many bloggers become more careful about their blog SEO and quality assurance. They also have started to concentrate upon the quality not quantity. Google always demands the high quality as well as some quantity. The sites with thin contents was also hit by Google Panda updates. Google quality does not mean that you have used good English. It means that what you are writing is fruitful for the audience and also matches with the title of the post. Lets have a look on the points from which you can escape from hit by Google Panda Update.

What Kind of sites are Hit by Google Panda

Before starting it we must know that which kind of websites or blogs are hit by Google Panda Update. Google Panda Update usually hits the following sites:

Slow Load Time: All websites those take time to load become the victim of Google Panda Update.
Copyrighted Material: Site with duplicate contents are not encouraged by Google too.
Low Quality Contents: All sites with low quality and thin contents get hit by the panda.
Sites with lot of Ads: Google does not like the sites or blogs having a lot of ads units or networks. Although it is important for blogger to put some ads units but putting a lot of ads units is not better choice. This will not only get down your site but also take users away from your sites through the ads. Remember that with less ads units you will earn same as with a lot of ads units.
Huge Size without Quality: If you have contents in high quantity, then you will get badly hit by Google if there is just quantity but no quality. So make reasonable size of your post with good quality.
Black-Hat SEO: Over optimization is bad thing for site reputation as well as also disliked by Google Panda Update. For an example, before this update, when you had searched for "example" then a site having just word of example get the top number in search engine and there you had found nothing. This was bad thing but such sites are now "treated well" by Google.

Get Rid of Extra Ads Units

To escape from hit by google panda update, remove all extra ad units from your site. Usually three ads units are enough and good for site. For better optimization, put some gap between ads units and try to cover all page with three ad units e.g. top, middle and bottom of your page. Remember that never put more than 1 ad unit within contents.

Write Quality Contents for Your Blog/Site

To write quality contents, your grammar must be better. You can use any writer program such as Microsoft Word or any other having spelling and grammar checking capability. Insert some images to make your post more considerable and easy where it is needed. Start your post with a well define introduction about the topic and the post length should be round about 500 or more words. Never forget to make some internal links within your contents.

Remove Low Quality Contents

Remove all low and poor quality contents from your blog. You can search and read it from your old posts. Usually you will find them in your posts that you have written at the start of your site. Either update them into quality content or remove them because Google punish the site with domain-level and a single bad or low quality link will effect your overall site.

Get Rid of Duplicate Contents

You obviously hate copying if you are a good person and Google also hates this. So try to escape from duplicating contents. Google can not understand the original and copied contents, so in case someone has copied your content then both you and the thief will be targeted by Google. You can find if anyone copying your content easily. Just copy a paragraph or 3-4 lines of your contents and put then within inverted comas (" ") and hit search. You can see the results. Then file a copy against all of them using Google DMCA Link.

Avoid Keyword Stuffing

Keyword Stuffing means "using excessive keywords". Google does not like keyword stuffing so whenever Google discovers a high density it checks and considers this as spamming. So avoid this as this is also known as black-hat SEO.

Get Some Knowledge About SEO

Search Engine Optimization is very important to increase the traffic and for the success of a blog. So you must have some know-how about the SEO such as meta title, description and keywords, webmaster tools, sitemap submission, image optimization etc.

Back-linksGuidance

Try to get some quality back-links as they are very important to increase the traffic and rank of your blog or website. Back-links normally generate automatically. Never try to purchase back-links because they are low quality and not genuine so cause to down your site. You can also get back-links by writing guest posts etc.

That's all about escaping from Google Panda Update so be careful and update your site or blog accordingly.

Best Wishes!!!
