Is the content on my website is garbage?

I received a mail from google webmasters, that my website is having low quality content.

Hi Landon. Google has written several support documents on what could be the reasons for them sending you the note in webmaster tools. From https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2604719...

Here are a few common examples of pages that often have thin content with little or no added value:

• Automatically generated content
• Thin affiliate pages
• Content from other sources. For example: Scraped content or low-quality guest blog posts
• Doorway pages

And https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66361 is another checklist. If your site falls under any of those descriptions you'll likely have on-going issues. Rand did a great White Board Friday recently outlining what your content goals should be, in short 10x better than anything else you can find out there: https://moz.com/blog/why-good-unique-content-needs-to-die-whiteboard-friday  Cheers!

Hi there

You'll want to look into the Thin content with little or no added value resource provided by Google - there you will find next steps, as well as resources on Reconsideration Requests.

Once you pinpoint and alleviate the content issues you on your site, you should take a look at the Ultimate Guide to Google Penalty Removal - it will help you with your reconsideration request.

I also suggest going through the a proper content audit for your website, and continue to do so every so often going forward. Coupling this with your on-site SEO check ins will be a huge benefit to your organic site visibility and performance.

Hope this all helps! Good luck!
