Ok. Here’s an example I’ve often pondered suggesting, but haven’t been able to implement since the other websites involved don’t have RSS feeds I can hook into.
I maintain a website for my local ice hockey club. Above us is our regional body which should have a website and the national body who have a website. Plus there are various other regional and local websites which have various pieces of news available.
Our members heavily use our own club website, but they don’t often bother reading the national body’s site, nor do they bother reading the websites of other local clubs around the country. However some of those users do request more news on our own site about what is happening at the national level and in other clubs/regions.
To cater for this, I think it would be a good idea for all of the hockey clubs in our country to agree to allow the others to aggregate their content onto their own website. This way our own users don’t have to go trolloping all over the internet to find the latest news out. This wouldn’t need to be EVERY post, perhaps just from a ‘featured news’ category or something like that.
If the auto-blogged content aggregated from the other sites was marked with ‘noindex’ so that Google etc. don’t penalize the original site for duplicate content then there would be minimal loss in traffic to the sites concerned.
Bear in mind here that these websites are primarily designed to inform our local hockey players. They aren’t there to create more money, nor to generate traffic from Google (that’s just an added bonus). They are there to keep our own members informed of what is going on and to keep them entertained. The argument against this approach is usually that original content is always better than reposting the same content (which is true), but in our situation we do not have enough volunteers to write all of this content, it is hard enough writing all of the content for our local activities let alone doing the same thing for national and regional level news. An auto-blogging system would solve these issues for us very easily.
Can you, please explain in more detail how can you reduce your cost per click… I’ve recently done a CPC campaign and I have no idea of what you are taliking about… Or, if you know a good website about this technique… can you post it?
I thought auto-blogging was a big no no for driving traffic.
Most SEO specialist I know, doesn’t recommend auto-blogging. It is considered Blackhat SEO.
If one looks at this issue critically, we all will agree we don’t want auto-blogging. How will you feel if you need to search through tons of Robot generated content when you need a critical information? Just my humble opinion
That is the way to go. Human beings producing quality information that is useful for other human beings. Not robot generating junk information for human beings.
I’ve never known auto blog software…
Question about auto software - is there any body who knows an auto submitting or posting blog software? And auto-writing article software?
