Google’s head of search, Amit Singhal, on Friday afternoon posted the second batch of advice for those webmasters harmed by the Google Panda/Farmer update. The first advice from Google was about two months ago and Google now, after a month since the international roll out and almost three months after Panda was unleashed, Google submitted their second batch of advice.

Most webmasters are not happy with the set of advice, but first let me quote it and then let me share some webmaster thought.

Google’s Advice:

Would you trust the information presented in this article?Is this article written by an expert or enthusiast who knows the topic well, or is it more shallow in nature?Does the site have duplicate, overlapping, or redundant articles on the same or similar topics with slightly different keyword variations?Would you be comfortable giving your credit card information to this site?Does this article have spelling, stylistic, or factual errors?Are the topics driven by genuine interests of readers of the site, or does the site generate content by attempting to guess what might rank well in search engines?Does the article provide original content or information, original reporting, original research, or original analysis?Does the page provide substantial value when compared to other pages in search results?How much quality control is done on content?Does the article describe both sides of a story?Is the site a recognized authority on its topic?Is the content mass-produced by or outsourced to a large number of creators, or spread across a large network of sites, so that individual pages or sites don’t get as much attention or care? Was the article edited well, or does it appear sloppy or hastily produced?For a health related query, would you trust information from this site?Would you recognize this site as an authoritative source when mentioned by name?Does this article provide a complete or comprehensive description of the topic?Does this article contain insightful analysis or interesting information that is beyond obvious?Is this the sort of page you’d want to bookmark, share with a friend, or recommend?Does this article have an excessive amount of ads that distract from or interfere with the main content?Would you expect to see this article in a printed magazine, encyclopedia or book?Are the articles short, unsubstantial, or otherwise lacking in helpful specifics?Are the pages produced with great care and attention to detail vs. less attention to detail?Would users complain when they see pages from this site?

Webmaster Feedback:

There are two primary threads, that I have found, covering the Google advice. One at WebmasterWorld and the other at Google Webmaster Help. I will pick out some quotes from the WebmasterWorld thread on these topics:

There are lots of interesting points in the thread, so I suggest you check it out.
