Setting kembali Plugin STT2

Beberapa hari yang lalu saya mendapat Email dari Mas Purwedi Kurniawan, yaitu pembuat plugin SEO STT2 yang isinya bahwa google panda akan kembali update algoritma dan ada fitur pada plugin STT2 yang bertentangan dengan algoritma panda.

Berikut ini cuplikan email dari mas Pur :

As you already know, Google Panda Update aims to remove the pages that are considered low-quality content from google search results.

"Improve it or remove it. With Google's Panda Update, low-quality content can impact an entire domain, but removing these pages - or moving Them to a different domain - can help your rankings, " says Google's Michael Wyszomierski.

And unfortunately, the search pages that are automatically created by SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2 plugin, as well as the WordPress tags pages, are considered as low-quality content.

Therefore, I do not recommend to enable these two SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2 features:

1. "Save popular search terms as post tags", and

2. "Convert search terms into links to search page".

All the other features are save, and not contradictory to Google Panda Update.

In addition, to eliminate those pages from Google Index, you can add the following code into your site robots.txt file ( you can find it in the public_html folder ).

User-agent: *

Allow: /

Disallow: /search/

Disallow: /tags/

For now, Google has not perfomed Google Panda Update into all of their local sites, but I guess it'll be soon.

To make friends with Google Panda, always use high quality unique content, and strengthen the on-page SEO of those content in accordance with the keywords you target. Some people even said that the most important now is your on-page SEO, and not your backlinks (off page). For me, both is important, but I do believe that on-page SEO become more important then before.

Intinya adalah untuk menyeting 2 fitur pada plugin STT2 yaitu Enable "Save popular search terms as post tags" dan Enable juga "Convert search terms into links to search page". Serta menambahkan script pada robot.txt dengan :

User-agent: *

Allow: /

Disallow: /search/

Disallow: /tags/

Jika anda menggunakan Plugin ini mungkin sebaiknya segera set kembali Plugin STT2 anda.
