Attacking Doorway/Thin Content pages?

[KempRugeLawGroup]

What's the best way to approach fixing thin "city+services" pages? Would recommend doing one page at a time? Or doing a little on a bunch of pages at a time?

For example, rewrite one page with 1,000 words of unique content, adding city specific images/videos of services rendered and local testimonials over the course of a week? Then go to the next page the following week?

Or, one week add city specific images/videos to all the pages you can? Then, the next week add something else to all the pages?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to scale this, and also which way google/search engines would prefer/look more kindly at?

Thanks,

Ruben

If a site has a Panda problem or the potential of a Panda problem, then time is very important.   The best thing to do is to quickly noindex all of the thin pages to get them out of the index.   That will allow the pages that remain in the index to be as strong as possible, avoid Panda, and recover

After that you want to get the noindexed pages back into action as quickly as possible so that you enjoy the traffic and income that they produce.  If yours is the kind of content that can be outsourced and still retain quality then it might make sense to outsource that work and get those pages back to earning money right away.  The quick return to action of those pages will fund the content development.  If you are the only person who can do that writing and have limited time, then I would write the most valuable ones first, one-at-a-time properly, to avoid thin content on the site.

Quick followup question. Should I noindex/nofollow the pages or noindex/follow the pages?

Good question.  That is a very important thing to do right.  I use this before my tag.
