Going From Bad to Worse

With that many sites you will need to have a perfect system in place to ensure all the sites are continuously backlinked, you don't have to add content regularly but you can never stop building links to your sites. Stagnant sites are a bad thing SEO-wise - especially after PANDA!

If I were in your situation I will try and combine sites that are in a related niche and produce separate categories for each related niche on a new domain and 301 redirect the old URLs to your new domain URLs.

Then I will look at ways in which I can build-up the sites that were making money to a point that they will become profitable again. The best way to do that is to start building quality links to the pages that were hit. I've done that on my Panda affected sites and it has helped.

Lastly, I will take the sites that were not profitable and look to monetize them or use them in a different way. You can change the hosting to have multiple C-class IPs and build a small network of blogs that you can use to backlink your money sites and you can even advertise them on fiverr and ask people to pay you to submit unique content on these blogs, but for that to work the domains will need to have PR - preferably PR3+

You're joking right.... I have over 10 thin sites which I haven't backlinked in over 9 months that received and are still holding #1 positions since October 14th.

No new content and no new backlinks in a long time... so I would skip this advice.

That might just be the niche you are in. However I agree with you on the always having to update content. That IS a myth even post Panda. Plenty of sites rarely change their content and still rank. Now if your pages are thin then I would suspect its just your niche being weak. Thin pages are not doing well in many serps.

Go ahead and skip the advice, it wasn't meant for you. With SEO and organic traffic nothing lasts forever unless you willing to work at it consistently. Now, if you targeting low comp. keywords and local type keywords then maintaining rank is a breeze, but jump into a med-high comp. niche and you start playing a different ball game.

It amazes me when people jump into a thread and refute the advice given to the question asked in the OP, but they themselves have absolutely no value to offer.

What the flip is PANDA?

Panda is Google's latest algorithm change for ranking websites...Think of it as how Google decides to rank websites...

So if Google once thought X kind of websites were worth ranking, then changed their mind to now think Y kind of websites are worth ranking...and you have an X type of website...you're screwed. Basically.

Yeah Google's been tweaking algorithms for the last month or so...it's incredibly frustrating.

You can:

1. Try to tweak your sites to be more inline with what Google "says" it wants to see at this moment in time.

2. Forget your sites, and just start over.

I suggest option 2...clone your sites under different domain names and see what happens. I suggest using cheap .info domains so it won't cost you much money or really even take that long.
