I think it was not worth to try, google dont like your blog with duplicate content, even if you say that this use rss feed, but can you imagine that your title will be same with the original content and if you add or manipulate with such a keyword too many, your blog will be banned.
nah thats really not true. Plus there are ways to go about blogging that alter the content. I do not mean spin or rewrite, I mean get in there and tweek it manually, by changing titles or adding extra content, or even making mashups of more than one article. But even if you did not do this Google will not ban your blog, and you will get small amounts of traffic. One of my amazon blogs http://www.narutotoyshop.com got "sandboxed" because of the high number of amazon links found in my blog. Google didnt like that. Now I am trying cloaked links on the same site, and seeing if I can get some better results. But either way I still get traffic for the site due to all the individual posts in the content
I honestly think autoblogs can make money. Not just by adsense, they can make money by selling stuff too. I definitely think they can be good for SEO purposes. Imagine running an autoblog about health. You then use that linking plugin that automatically link words for you. That would be great links for your website. If your autoblog gets a higher PR, then it gets just easier! I'm thinking of starting an autoblog, but I do not want to pay for it. Does anybody know of any free alternatives?
