Panda Prevention Plan (PPP)

[Palbertus]

Hi SEOMOzers,

I'm planning to prepare Panda deployment, by creating a check-list from thinks to do in SEO to prevent mass trafic pert.

I would like to spread these ideas with SEOMoz community and SEOMoz staff in order to build help ressources for other marketers.

Here are some ideas for content website :

• the main one is to block duplicate content (robots.txt, noindex tag, according to the different canonical case)
• same issue on very low quality content (questions / answers, forums), by inserting canonical redirect or noindex on threads with few answers

Personally, I don't think Panda is something that is ever going to happen again.  There are always going to be algo tweaks, but this was something different.

I think it's always wise to block duplicate content and improve the quality of your content, but then this is just good practice all around!

Prepare original, high quality content and claim it with rel="author".

Thanks for your help.

Big content website, as official they are, are always on prey from another panda tweak. Google send this panda message to prepare website using too much UGC, forums to make the difference between their official high quality content, and the SEO content on the way to become official.

That was the reason I need to build up a Panda Prevention Plan
