Yes, it seems like about what we figured. 'Thin content' is the enemy.

I had a few websites that were hit by Panda (all of them)! They did have thin pages. I finally had time to distill them down from 900 pages to 10. I think that's the only real cure for Panda.

Most of the sites hit by Panda were likely old websites on outdated CMS. Updating the CMS and content to something newer is bound to help.

I definitely think that backlink profile is checked at some point in the Panda filter. Maybe only if other "low quality" signals are seen but I've seen evidence of backlinks factoring in my personal experience.

Thanks for sharing it. What is mean by thin content? I just want to know more in clear way about it? Is it mean that with a deep content?

These all are one of the essential contents which value the answer query it always characterized by a slow signal nation. Its all are really very interesting.

Clickbump is still going with micro sites? What on earth happened to Xfactor?

I'm sure Google has employed some of the smartest people, but machine learning is nothing new & machine learning isn't what most people think it is, the machine doesn't actually learn, the machine compensates (not the same things).

I worked off-line for almost 10 years writing code for production machines in the manufacturing niche.

The concept is simple, you have a high & low point on a graph, If you travel outside of those high/low control points the code will compensate to bring the machine back into tolerance (+/-).

The data parameters are all controlled by human/code, the machine/PC is dumb as a rock.

Again, Google employees are smart, but they are not smart enough to create a machine/code that writes code for itself, machines don't learn, they compensate based on human edited data.

You'll know the day that a machine can write it's own code, that would be millions of times bigger news than the internet will ever be.

My point here is, If one human creates something, another human can/will reverse engineer the same thing. I imagine over the last few years hundreds/thousands of Google algos. have been scraped because thousands of SEOs reverse engineer their ideas.

Also, right now thin content is not a negative in the SERPs. I have a few thousand pages of what most people on this forum would classify as thin content (I have legit reasons) & I still rank those pages in the SERPs.

I also have a steady flow of repeat traffic, just to show that thin pages aren't always bad, traffic only returns to a site If they like the content.
