Panda Update

The Panda Update is a change made by Google to improve search results by rewarding high-quality, relevant websites and reducing the ranking of sites that used manipulative tactics or had poor content. Introduced in 2011, it aimed to ensure users find trustworthy and useful information. Essentially, Panda filters out "thin" or low-value content, encouraging website owners to produce better, more meaningful material. This update helps improve user experience by making search rankings more reflective of actual quality rather than tactics like keyword stuffing or excessive ads.
