Wp-robot = Duplicate Content?

Your first mistake: buying WP robot.

Auto blogging is crap. Create something useful instead.

Yes wp-robot does create duplicate content. You can mix up the content though. I would mix in original content with your auto-posts.

I would imagine auto-blogs are less effective than they used to be but I have had wp-generate posts that were not spun and had they ranked very well in search, which seems very strange to me. If it wasn't for those posts I would declare auto-blogging to be dead.

That being said I have one site that is just auto-blog content and it does not do very well at all. My sites with 100% original content do much better, even though they have far less content.

Hi.

It's not the system nor is it the software. Its how you use it. Know What a software will do; know Why you want to use it, and then, decide How to use it.

Example: Just takes a little effort (10 hours or less) depending what your objectives are.

1. Do selective keyword research and choose the appropriate market keywords for at least 9 categories.
2. Purchase 9 to 12 or more 'Ultra-Spin' articles.
3. Perform 'SEO' on 100 articles of a selected batch of 'Ultra-Spin' articles, and drip feed post them , as they will all be unique, reader legible and search engine friendly.
4. Schedule 52 weeks of drip feed category post.
5. Scale as you see fit (this plan only regards article posting - adjust accordingly).

Simple, and hope this helps a bit.

p.s.: if you don't know how to do effective keyword research, STOP...

Go study 'search engine operators', which will give you a thorough handle on communicating with machines in a language they understand, respect, and follow.

Then dive into the 'psychology of motivation', which will regard us humans and our behavioral incentives.

At this point, you should be familiar with the types of words and or word phrases, that both humans and machines understand and accordingly demonstrate behavior towards (traffic - can't stop it if you wanted to less you shut down)... Tom

The other thing to remember is this: If you put AdSense on a site that Google deems to be an autoblog, you'll lose your AdSense account forever. Since it's tied to you not an identity, you're screwed if you ever want AdSense again. Be VERY careful. (Having said that, I have WP-Robot and I use it for stuff like Amazon, not for articles at all.)

I've been wondering the same thing as well. Seems like all auto blogging and article spinning software is complete garbage. smh

WP robot is popular,because of it's free on all warez forums and people don't like to buy if they can get it free.
Autoblogging and blogging on autopilot can be different things,and it help to save money and time.
Also,you need to understand what exactly mean the duplicate content. The right tools can mushup ,mix,synonimise the content and it will look like as authority content for google and for visitors. If the google show different verticals in search,it must be the reason.

I got into automation software for automation solutions, which there are always needs for. Spinning content is terribly unhealthy for the internet and I shudder to have to include it (and I do... TBS, ContentBoss, SpinRewriter) ... but I also love my customers and many of them believe it gives them an edge when targeting long tail low competition keywords.

Many of these guys autoblogging are simply looking to grab traffic from searchers and redirect the traffic to CPA offers related to the terms they are searching for. Some are looking to grab the 5+ positions for long tail keywords with little effort and gain on passive ad conversions and then scale up the practice with quantity over quality in mind.

That's the autoblogging side of things. Now the automation side of things is completely different. You can use automation to operate a headlines model website and provide a ligetiment service to your readers, and gain readership at the same time. Also you can use it to curate select articles for editorial work before you publish and stream in data from 3rd party streaming services that your believe your readers will be interested in.

It also helps for re-syndication projects. Occasionally content needs to be resyndicated to a wordpress platform to achieve a desired result. An example is one of my other software product pages (Google+ to RSS Feed) where I syndicate my Google+ RSS posts to the Wordpress blog using RSS and advanced automation templating.

I'm hoping to point out that automation software can't be coined as crap because of the way one aspect of the industry uses it.

I've created two client projects were WPR3 was a requirement (in the client spec). Since I had it in hand I played with it. The first thing that jumps out is that it leaves a very clear footprint. It even puts a signature in the .HTACCESS file on Apache servers. Yes it's duplicate content, it's also taking copyrighted material and re-publishing it. There's a checkbox to strip out links, so obviously that's an issue with ownership/copyright.
That said, like many of these tools of satan it can actually have a legitimate use. I have a client site which is signed up to a job fair notification service via an API, so I've used it to pull-in updates from their API which is covered in their TOS and perfectly legit.
Most people will want to use it in a nefarious way, that's obviously the primary intent. The client of mine (ex client) who uses it does get search traffic into the blog area of his site, which is where it's at. So I suppose it works, though probably with a very limited life span....as with most of these things.

Stay clear is my advice.
