Google: Project Owl – New emphasis on quality
Google search has 10,000 quality raters showing a new emphasis on
authoritative content to improve search quality:
• Raters evaluate Google’s search results
• They rate the quality of pages that appear in the top results
• They cannot alter Google’s results directly. A rater marking a particular
listing as low quality will not cause that page to be banned or lose
ranking.

Google: Project Owl – New emphasis on quality
• The data generated by quality raters is used to improve Google’s search
algorithms. Over time, the quality rater data might have an impact on
low-quality pages that are spotted by raters, but the algorithm will also
impact pages weren’t reviewed.
• Quality raters have a 200 page set of guidelines with instructions on
how to assess website quality and whether the results they review meet
the needs of those who perform searches.
