Do auto blogs really work?

    I've seen a few auto blog sites for sale where the seller says they're getting reasonable traffic. Can this be true if theyre just scraping content from elsewhere? Is it worth it for the risk of duplicate content issues?

    I feel auto blog sites hard get high PRs (don't know this is always correct), but there is a chance to get big traffic.

    Depends on what niche, some can bring some traffic, but it is not easy to rank in serps with sites based on duplicate content, and if the same content is found on sites that rank higher in serps, why should people surf a site like this?

    Remember that traffic can mean not very much of anything, if the traffic is poor and leads to nothing then theres no point.

    I dont like things like that personally.

    No work, no reward.
