    Surviving Google Panda Updates - Emily Rose Sanders

    Introduction

    On February 24th 2011, Google unleashed the Panda update to their algorithm, sending shock waves through the internet. Panda was the biggest update since the infamous Florida update in 2003, and affected 12% of all search results. They followed this up on April 11th with Panda II, which affected a further 2% of searches in Google.com, and rolled out internationally as well. Panda 2.1 followed on May 9th, Panda 2.2 followed on June 16th , Panda 2.3 occurred on July23rd and Panda 2.4 on August 10th.

Add in a thousand and one wannabe content farms looking to make money from pumping out stuff into the internet, and Google had a problem in serving up good quality results
