      Dear Mates,

      Could you check this category page of our e-commerce site: http://tinyurl.com/zqjalng and give me your opinion about, this is a Panda safe page or not?

      Actually I have this as NOINDEX preventing any Panda hit, but I'm in doubt.

      My Question is "Can I index this page again in peace?"

      Thank you

      Clay

        Hi Claudio,

        Would you mind providing some more info on your concerns and updating the link to a direct one? Unnecessary shortened URLs smell awfully fishy, especially to the SEO community 🙂

          Hi Chris,

          This is the URL https://www.sharewarepros.com/get/iskysoft/  I have some others, actually are set as NOINDEX (meta robots)

          Thank you

          Clay

            Panda is about so much more than the quality of one page. It is about the overall quality of your site.

            Regarding category pages, these are ok to have indexed. But, some sites have thousands and thousands of category pages in the index that will never get clicked on on a Google search. This can IMO be an indication of low quality for a site. I only want to have Google index pages that they are very likely to show to searchers.

            I don't think that anyone can really answer your question with certainty because again, Panda is about overall site quality, not one page.
