Google's bot reading content?

[Allegro]

Do you think Google's bot 'reads' web content in the way you read articles or other written content? Can the bot judge that an article is of low or high quality?

I believe you should take a look at the basics about how Google Crawls, Indexes and Serves the web pages : google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=70897&rd=1#1

With the fast piece of technology, especially as it pertains to the internet, the search engine bots will probably be much more "intelligent" in a very few years.

Google is probably engaged in all kinds of behind the scenes artificial intelligence research and development to improve how they read a site. The whole reason for Google to begin with was to be a search engine that rewarded good content and not who paid to be listed.

Agree. I believe that eventually Google's both can read content as humans do, and judge quality of the content. At least the bot can distinct genuine articles from spam messages.

As the search engines get smarter about the nuances of content, we'll all be better off as webmasters because visitors will be getting more of what they actually want. That means more time visiting websites and more traffic overall.

the google bot crawl is only responsible for the content, and then through their own service cluster to analyze the content

Google bot are designed to read and analyze the whole content of a webpage. Bots work on LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing) techniques. Thus, they can analyze about the quality of a web content.
