How many times should you spin an article to submit to the directories? Some say only a few times, some say 50. What do you think? What are the concerns?
I'd say that the number of times is not important. What's important is that no matter how you create an article, it has to read well and make sense. If you go a browse through ezinearticles.com you will see a lot of articles that are poorly written.
Yes, I've seen them. I think it's pretty bad and will reflect poorly on the directory eventually. Does this matter to Google much?
Spinning articles is 'definitely' blackhat. That said, you can spin as many times as you want, if you can maintain uniqueness of the content among spun articles.
The number of times is irrelevant, surely that is obvious to anyone? What matter is that each contains unique word combinations.
Just depends if your going after an organic approach. If you are - then you really should spin the articles really good - I prefer just unique afticles. If you aren't going after organic reasons but after referral traffic from different web directories - you can use duplicate articles. AND NO, Google won't penalize you - they will just put the article down in the bottom of the SERP pile. But that's ok since your after referral traffic.
I used to use senuke for this, but my best bet would be to spin an article for each directory for better results.
None, zip, zero. I am guessing my response is going to escape you folks. SEO is not about gaming the serps unless your a total noob. Nigel
I don´t think it is. Spinning is just a way to help you rewrite articles, nothing more. As long as the articles are readable and good quality I don´t see anything wrong with it.
It's definitely blackhat - The only reason you are writing them is to avoid duplicate content penalties, which is 100% against what Google is try to achieve in their search engine rankings - quality and relevance. Think about it!
Google is smart enough to know the spinned articles are duplicates by word count since most automated article spinning software just replace words with similar ones. I would just pay for each unique article. You can get it as cheap as $3 at guru.com.
The number of times you spin the article will depend on how much work you put into putting spun content in there....If you do a sloppy job you can spin an article 5 times and some of the copies wont be 30% unique or better. If you do a good job, you can spin an article 100 times and all of them will be at least 30% unique.
the article will have the same words in it right? Then there is little unique from one version to the next, i dont think that will outsmart google
