How do i know that my website affected by Panda Updates ?
-
If website is affected by Panda updates then how do we know that? If have any type of tools or strategies or alert to find out affected website by Panda then update as soon as possible.
-
Assuming the website in question is meracareerguide.com. Check out this page for example:
Here is what's found on the page:
Hi ronit,
The college selections depends on the course you are interested in. ISI offers two bachelors courses B.statistics and B.maths.
Where IIT's are the best choice to opt for Btech courses. Would suggest you to decide the courses of your interest and choose college according to that.All the best
The content is not only sub-optimal from Grammar point of view but also from the English language structure perspective. Such low quality content does not tend to rank high in search engines. You should get the content thoroughly proof read before posting it on your website. This is just one such an example.
You should also revisit your website monetization methods as the pages are dominated with ads than quality content. For example, this page:
You should seriously look at your URL structure also. There are too many issues with the website from an SEO standpoint and only a qualified SEO expert can guide you in the right direction.
-
But how do can recognize about website content quality?
-
The content should be unique, accurate, up-to-date, very useful to your visitors and above all, should serve the purpose of their visit to your pages.
Unless we have a look at the website in question, we would be just throwing stones in the dark.
I would highly recommend you to get your website audited by a qualified SEO expert.

How do i know about my website content quality is good or bad?

I'm afraid that Devanur-Rafi is right - you can check for Panda/Penguin (and other named update) impact by lining up traffic drops with known update dates, but there are many, many things that can cause ranking drops that happen outside of named updates. These include manual penalties (check Google Webmaster Tools), technical/crawl issues, and even non-penalty quality issues. Google could filter a page or simply lower your rankings, and it might not align with any known update. If it's algorithmic, you won't get a message.
The key is segmentation:
(1) Which keywords took losses? Are these broad terms or long-tail terms? Is there a pattern? Are you over-optimizing for these terms.
(2) Which pages took losses? Are these pages being indexed? Are they technically sound (returning proper headers, loading quickly, etc.)?
(3) Has something changed in the competitive landscape. In other words, have you dropped or has someone else gone up? The net effect is the same, but the cause is very different. Maybe Google doesn't dislike you - they just like someone else better suddenly.
(4) Is there a seasonal issue? How does this pattern compare to last year? Has something happened in your industry or market?
I know that's a lot, but these are difficult problems without easy answers. I hope that helps a bit.

No matter which wave of Panda update from Google, if your website has been hit by it, it clearly tells you to have a look at your content and its quality. Thin content pages and pages with low quality content will be the victims of Panda. This is the time revisit your content strategy.
-
If any website affected by Google Panda 4.1 update then what should be do? I mean what kind of activities follow for safety purpose of our website?
-
Now, this is a very open-ended question and unless we do some SEO forensics or an audit, we might not be able to give specific reasons for the drop in traffic. If you can share the details of the website, probably, we will be in a better position to address your query.
Best regards,

I checked my website through this tool, it is not affected by any Updates of Panda and Penguin algorithm but why my website traffic getting down in every next crawl report of moz.com and keywords also give me a reason of Keywords ranking up & down?

Thank you, Its really helpful tool

Hi,
You can try the following tool:
Llogin to your Google Analytics account and visit this URL:
http://www.barracuda-digital.co.uk/panguin-tool/
Give read-only access to the application and check if this website has been hit by any of the Google updates like Panda or Penguin. That's a quick way to see if you were hit by a Google penalty.
Best regards,
Devanur Rafi

Main Website Redirects to Mobile Website, Mobile Website counts this as direct traffic, is there a way to tell what the source/medium is?
Hello, The situation is that someone is arriving on my main website https://www.example.com and being redirected to http://m.example.com. When this happens my analytics says that the traffic is all direct coming to my mobile site. However, I know people clicking on my google cpc, and some google organic users are hitting the main website and being redirected. Before we didn't have as good of a redirect on our main website so I could tell organic and cpc traffic coming in, now my main website has a huge drop in these categories because they are redirecting to mobile but I can't tell on my mobile how much traffic from each is going to the mobile site. Is there a way to fix this? Is it because my main website is https:// and mobile is a http:// (as I know that sometimes makes traffic direct) or is it a bigger problem that can't be resolved? Thanks

Re-Launched Website: Developer Fogot to Remove noindex tags.
Our company's website has maintained decent rankings for the last 12 years we've been in business for our primary keywords. We recently had our website rebuilt from the ground up, and the developers left the noindex tags on all of our 400+ pages when we launched it. I didn't catch the error for 6 days. During which time, I used the Fetch feature in Google, submitting a site-wide fetch, as well as manual submissions for our top 100 URLs . In addition, every page that was indexed previously had a 301 set up for it, which was pointing to a destination with a noindex.

I caught the error today, and the developer removed the tags. Does anyone have any experience with a situation similar to this? In the SERPs, we are still ranking at this moment, and it's displaying our old URLs, and they are 301 redirecting just fine. But, what happens now? For 6 full days, we told Google not to index any of our pages, while also using the Fetch feature, contradicting ourselves.
Any words of wisdom or advice as to what I can do at this point to avoid potential fall out? Thanks0 -
How does Google sort multiple websites in one GWT account?
Today I noticed one of our sub-domains listed in our Google Webmaster Tools Account moved from the 6th position to the 2nd position. Is there a reason for this (perhaps urls/sites listed at the top require the most attention)?

Google Analytics tracking code for completely new website
Hello! I use Google Analytics to monitor our company's websites. In the coming weeks we will roll out a brand new website for one of our brands to replace its current site. The domain name will remain the same. My question is, should I use the same tracking code that's been used on the existing site for the new site, or is there a benefit to creating a new tracking code? Thanks in advance!

UK SERPS update
Hi All, Anyone else seeing major changes in the google.co.uk SERPS results.Across about 12 different clients we have seen gains and loses. Sub pages seems to be suffering more than homepages. Any idea what has been targeted? With think it might be anchor text but were not sure. Noticed first dips on Monday and it has been rolling out across different niches all week. Thanks
