			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whether you’re in the <a title="A 6-Step General Process for Producing a Website" href="http://sixrevisions.com/web-development/a-6-step-general-process-for-producing-a-website/">process of building a new website</a> or <a title="An Exploration of Website Redesigns: Tips and Examples" href="http://sixrevisions.com/web_design/an-exploration-of-website-redesigns-tips-and-examples/">redesigning an existing site</a>, it’s vital to build it with search engine optimization (SEO) in mind.</p>
<p>The king of search engines, as everyone knows, is Google, <a title="Google Increases U.S. Search Market Share as Yahoo Slips, ComScore Says - bloomberg.com" href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-09/google-gains-u-s-search-market-share-in-october-comscore-says.html" target="_blank">making up over 65.3% of all search traffic (in October 2011).</a></p>
<p>Google’s goal is simple: to give their users the most relevant, high-quality search engine results as accurately and quickly as possible. So in early-2011 Google introduced an update to their search engine algorithm, dubbed <a title="Google Panda - en.wikipedia.org" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Panda" target="_blank">Panda</a>, as part of the company’s continual pursuit of that goal.</p>
<p><a href="http://jtodd.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/optimize_google_panda.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-207" title="optimize_google_panda" src="http://jtodd.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/optimize_google_panda.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>For those of you who are unaware, the Google Panda update <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Panda" target="_blank">reportedly</a> affected the rankings of almost 12% of all search results — more than any other update before.</p>
<p>Since then, Google has rolled out several other updates to Panda, dramatically changing how thousands of websites are ranked.</p>
<p>Those that were considered to be high-quality sites saw their rankings improve, while those of supposed low-quality essentially vanished from ranking at the top.</p>
<p>So now, the obvious question is this: <strong>How can we make websites that are seen as high-quality in the eyes of Google Panda?</strong></p>
