Download The Latest Google Search Quality Rating Guidelines

We have been tipped off of a revised Google Quality Rating Guidelines handbook that has been leaked. It has been over three and a half years since we last saw a leaked Google Quality Raters Handbook and that document was from back in April 2007.

We have secured the March 30, 2011 version 3.18 of the Google Search Quality Rating Guidelines handbook used by Google Search Quality Raters around the world. To download the 125 page document click here and it will download the 2.3MB PDF document.

I am not going to go through the whole document, you can print it out for some weekend reading.

Clearly, there are a lot of good tips on what Google considers to be quality versus not quality. What you can learn from documents like this is how Google classifies types of content and pages.

Understanding how Google quality raters are trained and how they work can be useful for all SEOs.

This is an exact quote from the guide:

"If a page exists only to make money, the page is spam."

Wow. Pretty harsh.

EDIT: However, further down the page:

"Affiliate pages that include original content in addition to the affiliate link are not spam"

Not sure about the legalities but I've uploaded it to MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Here are some mirrors if megaupload returns an error - Download General_Guidelines-2011.zip from Mirrorcreator - Upload files to multiple file sharing sites

I'm sure it will be removed if it's in some kind of violation.
