It’s great that there was a move toward those sites who offer quality content…but the backlinking system and article marketing does encourage these sites as website owners try to get their backlinks for higher SERPS

What about content provided by manufacturer, most shopping site has to follow the same content as authorized reseller

I too spend a lot of time writing quality content for my site and find it very frustrating to be lower down the search results than a lot of “junk” sites (IMHO). I think this is a good thing overall.

So happy to hear Google is doing this. As a user, these content farmed sites are really annoying to effective searching. Regarding SEO for Top Massage Tables, we work really hard on original and useful content, so this will help legitimate sites like ours.

This is great news. It is very frustrating to see bad websites written for Google’s spiders only, ranked higher than your own informative site and thereby chasing potential business away. A lot of time is wasted on keeping your own website ranked higher on Google than the content farms. Is this problem more prevalent with Google than the other search engines?

I, for one, am really happy to see this change be put into place. It’s so frustrating to be searching for an answer to something and to keep getting these junk sites. Beyond the inaccuracies, most are so rife with spelling and grammar errors that they are barely even readable.
