Hi I wanted to know how can I make a auto-blog which keep posting automatically, what is the technical know-how required, any examples or tutorial links?. Thanks in advance
I don't have a sample but it's easy to set up an auto blog site. Just search google for "auto blog plugin wordpress" and you'll find some. That's assuming you have a worpress site, if not then search for what ever platform your site runs on.
the basic concept of auto blogging is that you don't post the content/posts yourself but scrape your content from other sources/websites and automatically post them in certain time intervals. You can, of course use adsense on those sites but there's a certain risk to it as Google doesn't like it that much.
Autoblogging, as described in the post above, is nothing very different from regular blogging. The only difference is that, you don't have to write/add content to your blog yourself. There are certain plugins which do this for you. You can, of course, make a decent income with Adsense if you do it right. I'll soon be starting off a thread, in which I'll provide details about auto-blogs and how to start from scratch. So, stay tuned Best, Sarim.
Yes, there is a site that has a good guide as to how to set up an autoblog on wordpress. This site also has a free ebook with more detail - http://www.autoblogging-wordpress.com Hope this helps!
This brings me to a new question, can I buy a bunch of domain lets say 10 and all related to different niches and set auto blogging on them and direct all the domains to one web space. In this way it would be economical but is it technically possible?
I have tried wp-o-matic plugins and other autoblog free plugins, however they can't scrap Yahoo Answer's and YouTube's comments, which are very important, because it gives your blog "more" content. Finally i use Wp Robot3 now, it is awesome, especially if you mix with your original content, easy to rank higher. Wp Robot 3 features that other free autoblog plugins can't have: 1. Clickbank products pulling. (with your affiliate link). 2. Amazon products.(with your affiliate link) 3. Yahoo Answers & YouTube's comments.
Also there is a high chance of being banned by adsense because it is against the "original content policy ".... am I right?
About adsense in autoblogs, i am not sure, since i only put affiliate links in my autoblogs LOL. But I have seen lots of Autoblogs which have adsense on it?
I don't reccomend auto-posting. It is duplicate content and you won't see too much traffic from search engines unless you can get your website popular very fast.
Ya that is exactly what I feel, but going by what people say it is a major source of their income, earning ~$200/day with few websites. Dont know how do they manage, can others also share their view on this?
Having autoblog is not against AdSense's TOS, as long as you don't post something illegal on your autoblogs, example p0rns, warez, etc, those surely will get banned. AdSense will ban autoblogs not because, they are autoblogs, but because the content, IMO. Autoblog is not bad, they do provide people informations links, just don't pull someone's full content, only the summary/excerpts with the link back the the source's article. And mix the modules to have more content, example(i use wp robot3) post from yahoo answer, and then insert from flickr, youtube or amazon, it will be fine. Posting links to the source original article is very important, to prevent people reporting your autoblog as copyright thingy thief.
In autoblogging your blog will be updated automatically by getting articles from other sites.It is much controversial as there are a copyright issue related with it.But many people are still making a good amount of money from autoblogging though adsense.
This isn't completely true. Search engines now look at your post and if it is "duplicate content" to them then as long as you have a "Source" link at the bottom or top of your article then you will be spidered just fine. I have autoblogged sites that get thousands of organic traffic a day by following that.
