Panda (Google Algorithm)

Panda is an update to Google’s algorithm introduced in 2011 to improve the quality of search results.

It was introduced to reduce the visibility of low-quality websites, particularly those that provided little value to users and were full of duplicate or spam content, and to instead bring out sites with original, high-quality content.

The name Google Panda is not “just” a reference to the animal, but is a tribute to engineer Biswanath Panda, who was one of its engineers responsible for the algorithm.
