So is this what Lazy Blog Owners Do?

    Got a track back on my NEW blog from this site:
    ://filehostfactory.com/site/8/?p=18665

    So is this what Lazy blog owners do? Just scrape other blogs and forum posts to plop a affiliate plug in on in hopes of making a click when someone realizes they stumbled into a garbage can?

    Just curious, does this work for some, just throw up a few hundred of these and see what happens?

    In the long run it doesn't work and honestly, I don't like those lazy asses that do that. They always take pieces of my blog posts and put it on those damn sites... eh, at least they're giving me credit with backlinks...

    I was on the understanding that these lazy blogs would be penalised for having duplicate content.

    They are penalized, but their goal isn't to be the best ranked blog to begin with so for the most part, they don't care.

    To earn 1c from thousands of blogs, have most shut down, then start again.
    In contrast to actually putting anything useful on the internet.

    yes...that's the kind of stuff that happens all the time...it's frustrating for those of us who do create original content or struggle to come up with stuff to blog about. They are sleazy as well as lazy...
