Affected by Google Panda? How were you able to regain your traffic through SEO?

Many websites were affected by Google Panda and I would like to compile some real world fixes that were used to regain web traffic

 

remove duplicate content from your website and you can regain your traffic.

 

Perform an entire site audit , check all content, quality and duplicate...Pray!!

 

Review your website contents as well as the structure of your site like the header tags, meta tags, anchor text etc. Remove unwanted or duplicate contents if found.

 

Lose the duplicate content, and make sure all the remaining content passes Google

 

Solid linkbuilding has help me out the most since panda.

 

Reviewing my websites content as well as my backlinks helped. The Panda update was Google's effort to bring more quality sites to the fore. You can read the article on the official Google Webmaster blog on how to build quality sites

 

if you are the victim of Panda then the first thing change you website content and use unique and high quality content and then after submit it for reconsideration on Webmaster Tools

 

Just remove duplicate content.

 

Remove all stolen and bad quality content. Then create original and good quality articles which are 100% error free. Then start doing white hat SEO for ranking them properly.

 

Just Update the content as soon as possible and carry out it optimization effectively.

 

Lot's of great feedback from you all. Thanks. How long after cleaning up your site's content were you able to regain your rankings? For one of my clients, it took 2 months. I basically removed all duplicate content as well as built quality backlinks.

 

Affected by google panda means you are using some black hat methods..Just avoid black hat tactics such as keyword stuffing, duplicate contents etc. Always write for humans not for search engines. You will regain your traffic if u do the above steps..

Thnks romysingh, for sharing very nice information of google panda.

 

Google is trying to give results that people want - that means returning quality sites, not lazily created sites that have tried to "game" the Google algorithms. Panda is just the latest update to try and get closer to this.

So I think you can work somewhere between two opposing SEO strategies:
1) Work with Panda and focus on providing good, original websites
2) Work against Panda and try to cheat an algorithm that nobody outside Google really understands fully

There is, of course, a fine line between "optimising" and "cheating". The most successful SEO strategies post-Panda (and beyond) will likely be those that mimic the way that good quality sites look and get linked to in ways that an algorithm would find it hard to tell the difference.

On the content side, good quality sites tend to have unique content with a more natural level of keywords, so that is what you should aim for, as many people have commented.

On the linking side, good quality articles will get contextual links from other good quality articles, will get good rankings on social bookmarking sites, and will appear in link lists made up of other good quality links, etc. The proportion of these "good" links to other sources typically used by SEOs (forums, directories, blog comments, etc) will be higher than low quality articles. This seems to be the other major factor that is making the difference post-Panda.

 

All My Sites Got Up After Panda Update.

The Site with 600-700 Pageviews is Getting More Than 2k PageViews Per Day.Another Site Got PR3,previously PR0.

Go Ethical!
Google will Love You.

 

People seem to think about duplicate content when they hear the phrase Panda update. The thing is, the Panda update is not only about duplicate content. It is only a part of the Panda update. What Google aimed for when they rolled out this change is to bring up the quality of the search results pages. Content is king they always said. I guess that makes quality queen because you need it to rank well in SERPs.
