For an automated article directory (on which I want to put Adsense so that I get an automated income), which sources/sites/feeds are okay to pull content from, so that my site is not penalized by Google? Can you give some specific names of the content sources I can use?
There are many article directories that allow reposting the content as long as you leave the resource box and links intact. See, for example, ezine articles terms of service: http://ezinearticles.com/terms-of-service.html
You think there is a simple answer to that question? I am going to have to say that the only way is to either go ahead or give me the domain that you joined with. Only Then can I give you an educated answer.
you should be safe with almost any article source as long as you don't change the authors links to redirect to your own. might be helpful info at www.submitarticlemarketing.com/article-directory-software
if you are using any of the top article directory scripts (AD, AMS, WP, Joomla), you can get a pluggin from www.uniquearticlewizard.com that posts unique articles to your site
