Amazon Autoblogging mistake
So I decided to create websites on other Amazon niches 3 weeks ago and bought the domain names and set up the design etc. But this time I've unfortunately used one of the autoblogging softwares (scraped content from Amazon) as I didn't think I had the time or energy to write unique content for 6 sites every day. I wanted to try the software on only one of them and ended up using it on all 4 sites. And started observing the traffic on Statcounter. There were hardly any clicks, even though this is a very short period of time, I very much doubt one can build a long term business using autobloggers (copied or syndicated content).
Then a couple of days ago, I deleted all the syndicated copied content including the customer reviews. One site had more than 3000 pages. All the deleted pages are coming up with 404 pages but in proper format with search box and suggestions etc. Google says they are OK with 404s. Well I also have the XML sitemaps installed on all. So I started from zero and been posting unique reviews on them, at least rewritten content on Spinner Chief (but not automatic spinned junk.. I've been manually using synonyms etc. and checking for plagiarism to get 90-100% uniqueness).
I didn't want to waste the good and suitable domain names and the site design/ effort went into them. Just a little confused if I should start the review sites with new domain names as they may have already gotten bad rep at Google. Most pages have been indexed without problems but I don't think they were ranked properly to get to the 1st or 2nd page of Google any time soon, even though I did the reviews of some of the lower competition products.
Can you please advise what would be the right thing to do? (I appreciate opinions of those with experience and knowledge).. Thanks
