If your site is still suffering from the adjustment made to Google’s algorithm in mid October, I’ve got some ideas I’d like to share with you on how you can turn this trend around.

Quality Content Defined – 5 Steps to Create Content that Google Loves
November 11, 2011 By 12 Comments
There really isn’t any reason to rehash the importance of quality content. The Panda story has been told over and over again. If you want to rank with Google you have to present content that has real value for the visitor and delivers on the promise of the title (keyword phrase).
But just how do you define quality content? We know what it isn’t. We know that fluff stuffed with keywords will get you nowhere.
