Violation of Google's Quality Guidelines ?

    Hello.

    On 22nd April, my website http://www.mixupdate.com got de-ranked and I couldn't view any of the website's pages anywhere in the Google Search Results. I can only see my website if I type the full name as mixupdate.com in the search query. I was using Link Sharing at my websites and all pages of my website linked to other websites. Some people said, I went down as I was a Panda Victim but knowing that my website is clean from Spelling Mistakes and stuff, I thought that Google Punished me for the links I share and I removed them while submitting a Re-Consideration request at the same time. Google replied me today stating that the Site violates Google's quality guidelines :


    I don't actually know what part of the Quality Guidelines I'm missing ? I would be grateful if someone takes a look at my website and explains me. Google Forum staff although told me that the English on my website was very poor although the spellings are correct but Grammatically the tenses are wrong which caught me. I don't actually know how Google/Panda works to check that so I need someone to explain.

    Also, If its really the Quality of Articles and English as the cause, please tell me how should I post my articles at newer websites in the future like Spinning stuff, Article re-writing, fixing Grammar and Tenses.

    So I'm still waiting for anyone to put some light on this and also some tips to do the regular Article Posting and getting over with Panda like how would you want it ?

    -> TheBestSpinner is the best spinner I guess ?
    -> Microsoft Office would be enough for some grammatical errors or spelling mistakes ?

    Im suprised google even wrote you back! THIS post is pretty grotesque and maybe just one reason why you fail the guidelines. Also, there seems to be a lot of sexual references. Your english grammer is pretty bad, are these spun articles? If this is an autoblog and you use spun articles, then yeah you were bumped because of the panda update which got rid of autoblogs and low quality websites.

    hope that helps

    Yes, it looks to be an autoblog, pity cause the site looks clean, and I have to agree with Jason C, that post on Blue Waffle Disease is pretty bad, would you like a child to see this?

    If you have this site open to all age groups, you are very misguided individual, get that stuff off there or change it to adult content rating, this could be the reason G has slapped you.

    Yes there is article re-writing involved so maybe that made the English suck.

    The Post about Blue Waffle Disease is actually a disease and that was the thing that got me a lot of traffic. That was actually the bouncing page of my website and the bounce rate was high on that one. But of course this is not an adult material just a general disease to share along with a lot of other versatile articles I have based on the kind of blog it is. Also, I don't think that changing the content rating to adult for 1/500 articles would have benefited me.


    So how do others here re-write articles, Spin them and get through Panda ? Tell me your methods.

    Medical pictures are just that, but they are not suitable viewing for children, let me tell you buddy if my child bought that picture up on the screen I would report your site to Google immediately - You may think this is ok for general viewing by all age groups, the majority of the Western world, more especially Google, does not.

    personally I would not be unhappy to see article writing go away. for years people have just been pumping the net full of mass spam and that's probably why a lot of people are screaming about the panda update. It's just like e-mail spam... Eventually e-mail became useless without incredibly intense spam filters. One person described it very simply in that you had destroyed the medium ( that being e-mail ). the only way I can even function now on e-mail is to have Google hosted e-mail( by Google apps ).

    same thing goes for the net. How can you find what you need when it's all spam. Massive amounts vomiting out of spinners and everything else can find. Even with Google's advanced feedback loops/Algorithms That determine quality... There is a delay in which they can analyze that. An interesting poll might be to ask who has NOT been affected by panda.

    Wise words indeed Alicia, and the spammers delight seems to be yahoo, if I do anything on there I get a mailbox full, I myself use MSN as a general purpose client, and use gmail for important stuff, but out of all the email clients I have tried nothing beats the Mozilla Thunderbird, it is superb, simple to use, no clutter and no ads.

    I guess you are right articles too, even the best directories have let all this crap through, to be fair though some people are just trying to make a living by writing articles, the fact that English is not their first language makes it incredibly hard for them, but I for one will always forgive the poor English if they have tried hard to make the content good, the majority of the time though this is not the case and the spammers get to write any old crap, which then gets published thus tarnishing all the honest, non-natives with the same brush, part of this problem lies with the fact that internet commerce in their own countries is underdeveloped or non-existent and they know that all the big money is in Western markets and that is where they set their sights and why Adsense is so popular with them.

    Content is king of SEO. Keep your content clean and fresh. Google panda doing a lot of things. Please update your content at regular basis. It will help to improve the SERP. This will happen so often. Stay safe.
