Post PANDA - NOTHING Works!

something does have to work, you have to put effort into it not just not do and pretend its not going to.

I don't think that Google Panda is the end of SEO, Panda was used to eliminate bad content and get better quality sites a better place in the SERPs. That is what we all aim to do in SEO as well, right? So Panda is for only strong and reliable sites and not the crappy ones.

Couple of things that havent been mentioned is high pr social bookmarks and contextual backlinks on high pr sites.

How the heck was I able to be getting 8k uniques a day from Google within 1 and a half month of starting my site?

Everything works and will keep working as long as you do it the right way.

Big articles are the way forward. Since Panda one of my sites has been ranking for insane stuff! (almost seems as though you can get to the first page just by having a longer article than anyone else right now )

I totally agree with the observation. I write for an educational site and for any topics where our article is above 800 words they are flaring very good results in SERP. Just don't know if it's a co-incidence or a true finding.

Original content, backlinks pointed at these original articles, and high PR/social bookmarks.

Pretty simple, really.

One of my clients site, which is reallly big, got an increase of 20% by panda.
It's an online shop - ecommerce.

It's about quality! OnPage + OffPage

You should definitely forget about garbage spinned content for example.

"Quality" links and "quality" content will work until the next Google update, where they will find another hair to split in differentiating big boy sites with "quality" from small sites with "quality," in the direction of again dropping the latter in the search engines. You would think that at least one of these algo changes would preponderantly improve the rankings of small sites, yet the effect over the years, with each change, has always been to worsen them in a wholesale manner.

I have asked before, if "quality" by itself was the issue, why don't the poor quality or poorly linked pages on big corporate sites get penalized as badly as the small IM sites? Because they are big boy sites, duh. "Quality" is just a figleaf to give G a sense of legitimacy in suppressing the rankings of small sites.
