Are automated blogs againts tos, I have seen many blogs usually from "wordpress" that can post using feeds automatically. Can you get banned for something like this?
Well, tons of people openly do it, and I haven't seen anyone say they were banned, so I'd say its not.
Same here... I hve seen around 300 automated blogs after started using Wordpress for my websites... never seen anyone getting banned
They may not get you banned from Google or Adsense, but you have to be careful if you use a free service such as Blogger for your site. They have anti-spamblog algorithms that identify and delete automated blogs.
