Do You Make Money Using Automatically Generated Content?

3 replies
Here are several questions I have asked before about using content from article directories that no one seems to answer...

1) Does anyone have sites where 100% of your content (or close to that) is copied and pasted directly from article directories? That means of course that ALL the authors links are left intact.

2) If you do have sites using content from article directories, do you get your content by using a free service like MyArticleNetwork.com, or do you use one of the WP auto blogging plugins similar to Caffienated Content?

3) Are these sites totally hands-free AUTO-BLOGGED...OR do you manually select the content before posting to your blog/site?

4) Do you use a plugin like All In One SEO Pack and then manually ad the metatags (title, description, keywords) and assign a category to the articles BEFORE posting... OR do you post the articles with NO meta titles, descriptions, keyword, or tags?

5) HERE IS THE BIG FAT QUESTION: Are you making money from sites like these where 100% of the content (or very close to that) is borrowed directly from article directories? No B.S. - BE HONEST!

6) IF you are making money from sites like these, specifically which category below (a, b, c) most closely approximates the way you add the article directory generated content to your sites:
a) Your site is totally hands-free with automatically generated content from article directories. That means ALL posts are automatically generated with ZERO metatags (title, keywords, description, tags, etc.).

b) Your site has all of its content from article directories BUT you manually select and post each article yourself.

c) Your site has content from article directories and you are manually posting the articles yourself...AND you are manually adding metatags, titles, keywords, descriptions, and tags to each article BEFORE you post it.
7) IF you are making money from these sites, is your income from Adsense only, affiliate banners only, or a combination of both?

Please answer by using the NUMBERS for each question so we are all clear which questions you are answering.

Don't answer these questions unless the site(s) you are discussing here are sites where 100% of their content (or very close to that) is generated from article directories.


This should be good. I hope you will take the time to answer. Thanks for your input! It is greatly appreciated!

    hi...

    1. i have a few....just for the heck of it.

    2. i use the UAW for content. delivery via plugin for wp, and via email for blogspot.

    3. posting is hands free - but i do go back to delete irrelevant posts every now and then - some people just don't seem to know the diff between health and dating, so some articles are misplaced.....

    4. i use all in one seo to auto gen descriptions - but the content comes delivered (wp only) with tags.

    5. a little - but then i only have a few

    6. none of the available - UAW generates tags - so it's 100 % auto

    7 . mostly adsense - affiliate sales are like one in a blue moon


    lastly.....every now and then i write an article that i syndicate - for backlinks only - barring the odd bit of cleaning up, that's the only effort i put in after setting it up

    is it worth it ?

    dollar per hour invested ? took a while to break even. but eventually, yes

    it's what i do when i take a break - i build another. if i never have time to write and syndicate articles for it, then so be it...some do get some attention, some not

    one more thing - since a lot of the sites these link back to are "flash in the pan" sites (owner gives up soon), i used to have a problem with broken links - so i just added a plugin that allows me to unlink them - i do that when i go to clean up

      Thanks very much for your reply!

      Does UAW automatically add metatags (in concert with the All In One SEO plugin) to your posts, or does it just add tags?

      Thanks again.

        What is the name of the plugin you are using that unlinks dead links? Does it find the links first and then unlinks them? Or do you have to use another program to locate the dead links?

        Thanks
