Google's Panda Update Took a Big Bite Out of  My Traffic

Google have been tweating their search algorithms this year to battle content farms and scrapers. They named this tweak Panda Update.

I don’t consider my site a content farm, but I did saw a 40% decrease in traffic as soon as the new algorithm went live.
