Google Data Highlighter Troubleshooting Guide


Googler, Pierre Far, has announced on Google+ that they have produced a "troubleshooting guide" for the new data highlighter tool.
This guide is available over here and contains frequently asked questions on issues one may stumble upon when using the new tool.

Here is the current set up information on that page:
Creating a page set:
  • After I enter my starting URL and click OK, I get a "URL not found" error.
  • When I try to create a custom page set, an error message displays.
  • Data Highlighter doesn't understand my site.
Publishing a page set:
  • Extracted data displays on the Structured Data page, but still no rich snippets are shown in search results.

How does Google Panda look at your content?

It’s simple. If you read the Google webmaster guidelines to develop quality content, it mentions it clearly. Also, Google Panda update (or whatever they name) in 2013 will be better if not same what they had in 2012. Thus, for the new year, we’ll keep this animal’s liking and disliking in mind!

Panda sees red easily when you…
  • Use duplicate content
  • Simply include geo-specific keywords but don’t narrate the actual difference
  • Overly dense content with keywords and phrases
  • Post as a ‘ghost provider’ from admin panel
  • Write something that people don’t like (increased bounce rate)
  • Don’t update blog regularly
  • Go for boilerplate content (including URL structure)
  • Keep multiple pages with almost same content and little variations in keywords
  • Submit articles on directories blindly
  • Purchase links or build unusual link
Panda smiles when you…
  • Write original content
  • Update your page regularly with user-centric content
  • Take an authorship of your content
  • Include multiple solutions to a common question (such as video tutorial, graphics and text)
  • Use proper density of keywords and phrases
  • Don’t stuff words just to make the article/post longer
  • Write an engaging content (decreased bounce rate)
  • Show alertness in newer technology and update your content with new stuff on the market
