    I going to open a website that auto get content from different sources. There might be hundred of article per day with lots of keywords. But will it survive? Will google put penalty on my site?

    If your content is valuable to people, then most you will be able to get traffic from google. There are lots of examples of sites that do interesting things with duplicate content. Here are a few examples:
    1. A news site that caters to an audience that reads stories with a particular slant, and you have a nice way of bringing them together.
    2. A sports statistics site that presents stats in a way not found elsewhere

    The best way to judge if you are doing well is how users respond to your site. Are they leaving or staying?

    You can get autocontent from other sources but you should not remove the credites in them...For exampl if you are making an autoblog that pulls articles from article directory make sure not to remove the author bio while using their feeds....This is just an example!!

    Hi,

    In my own experiences, this practice would not be a good idea for SEO purpose since search engines would usually not index such duplicated contents from online already-indexed sources. There might be no penalty but would also with bed ranking, IMO. :)

    all the best,
