Google Quality Score?

[gonzo]

Anyone have any info or resources on the Google Quality Score or studies that have been done on it?

Hey gonzo,

most of the stuff is in the Members' paid area on this - but there's a blog post at Search Engine Watch as well as some forum discussion on it.

QS is annoying! Well, in theory it's not a bad idea, but I've not been impressed by it's implementation. As far as studies, I'm not sure how possible it is to conduct a reliable study/test on it... it's always changing and there are too many different variables that just can't be separated. Plus Google doesn't tell anyone anything actually useful about the way they come up with it.

I assume you've been to WebmasterWorld to do some reading on it if you're interested? www.webmasterworld.com/forum81/
