Google Panda Update and SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2

Related to the latest Google's algorithm update known as Panda, I think it is necessary to deliver several important information as follows:

As you know, Google Panda is intended to remove pages that are considered as low quality page from Google search.

"Improve it or remove it. With Google's Panda Update, low-quality content can impact an entire domain, but removing these pages - or moving Them to a different domain - can help your rankings, " says Google's Michael Wyszomierski.

Because of that reason, I don't recommend you to activate SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2's "Convert search terms into links to search page" feature.

This feature used to be a very good feature to increase indexed pages, but now it is better for you to not using it anymore. To make friend with Google Panda, always put high quality unique contents and strengthen On-Page SEO on the content page with the targeted keywords.

Some people even said that now, the most important thing is On-Page SEO, instead of backlink. For me, both are equally important, but I believe that On-Page SEO becomes way much more important than before Panda was updated.

As a guidance, you can review the criteria below:

ON PAGE SEO
  • Title: contains keyword, begins with keyword, contains at least 3 words, contains up to 66 characters
  • URL:Permalink contains your keyword
  • Meta tag: Description contains keyword, contains up to 160 characters, begins with keyword
  • Heading: H1 tag contains your keyword, H1 tag begins with keyword, H2 tag contains your keyword, H3 tag contains your keyword
  • Content: contains at least 300 words, has 2.0-5.5% keyword density, contains keyword in the first 50-100 words, contains at least one image with keyword in ALT
  • attribute, contains at least one bold keyword, contains at least one italicized keyword, contains at least one underlined keyword, contains keyword in anchor text of at least one external link, contains keyword in anchor text of at least one internal link, contains keyword in the last 50-100 words, the content should be easy to read.
