2. Google Panda: A
way to Build
Delicate and
Meaningful Links

3. Google took a step ahead in getting rid of
duplicate content and low quality
websites with its launch of a new
algorithm last year, Google Panda. Over
the months, Google has introduced
improved versions of Google Panda, first
targeting the spammy duplicate content
sites, followed by a newer Google Panda
update that aimed at getting rid of poor
quality websites. Adding to this, Google
also penalized some of the so-called
‘good sites’ for their poor linking
practices.

4. Google’s continuous efforts towards
eliminating all low quality websites and
poor link building practices with
improved Google Panda
updates, clearly sends out a message to
the link builders. It is time to bid
farewell to low quality link building
practices. Rather, concentrate on ‘white
hat’ SEO techniques to build delicate
and meaningful links for your website.

5. That the competitors are doing it is
no good excuse, and your website can
be penalized and ‘thrown’ out of
Google search engine for once and for
all. It might be little difficult to
digest, especially when you find your
competitors ruling because of
thousands and thousands of spam
links. But then, Google is now more
stringent than ever before, and you
have to take your step towards
building quality links, with Google
Panda.

6. Determine Low Quality Links
with Google Panda
The latest Google Panda update
specifically mentions how you can
determine whether the links to your
website are valuable or not. As such, in
the process of building quality and
meaningful links for your website, it is
important that you stay away from
linking to websites that features the
following characteristics:

7. Poor Quality Content – The websites
featuring poor quality of content are
deemed to be low quality sites by Google
Panda. Poorly written content or spun
articles get a thumbs-down from this
giant search engine, and thus, stay away
from linking to such sites

8. Lots of Ads – If your incoming or
outgoing links feature lots of advertising
chunks, Kontera text
links, AdSense, etc., chances are high
that Google Panda will fail to crawl your
page

9. Low Traffic - If you thought that
linking to a site that ranks 5th in Google
search engine will get you good
indexing from Panda, then it is
important to know that if the website
lacks in terms of social sharing or traffic
generation, then it might be devalued
in future. A well optimized site may not
always be able to attract traffic, going
into the ‘bad books’ of Google Panda.
So, stop spamming your comments to
such blog or linking to them

10. Lots of Links – If you find a blog or
content with lots of links to it, chances
are high that these are spam, and
obviously you would not love to run
behind it.
Thus, the core strategy towards
building delicate and meaningful links
is to walk in hands with Google Panda.
Concentrate on developing quality
content and link building that is less in
numbers but high in quality.

11. With its strict page indexing
norms, Google Panda paves the way
for link builders in developing quality
and relevant links for their websites or
blogs.
