Question about article spinning

by sitemarketer
8 replies
Hi.

I've never done any article spinning and haven't looked into it too much. Is it possible to merge or rotate links, so different suffixes from a list are added to a link? Something like:

<a href="http://mysite.com/mylink-{spin this list of keywords}">click here</a>

So, I don't want to spin the entire link, just part of it.

Thanks,
John.

    It sure is possible. Do a spintax and test it with a text spinner to see if you get the desired outcome.

    No docs at spintax, so I'm not sure what it does in context with what, but I'm guessing if I were to put this into some article spinning software:

    <a href="http://mysite.com/abc-{1|2|3}">{one|two|three}</a>

    It would rotate between these three links:

    <a href="http://mysite.com/abc-1">one</a>
    <a href="http://mysite.com/abc-2">two</a>
    <a href="http://mysite.com/abc-3">three</a>

    Is that correct?

      Each one is random, so they often wouldn't match up - you could get a [2] in the url and a [3] in anchor text for example.

      Agreed, just spin the entire link with the appropriate anchor text enclosed in the spin.

      Edit: To clarify a bit

      {<a href="http://mysite.com/mylink-keyword 1">keyword 1</a>|<a href="http://mysite.com/mylink-keyword 2">keyword 2</a>|<a href="http://mysite.com/mylink-keyword 3">keyword 3</a>|...}

      That is how I would do it.

        Hi John,

        Old time customer here of GTT BH, still using it. Nice to see someone who doesn't disappear and take their site down after a couple of years - GTT is a great piece of kit.

        If you specifically want to do this -

        <a href="http://mysite.com/mylink-{spin this list of keywords}">click here</a>
        ...and use the same anchor text ('click here' in your example) for different urls (presumeably different GTT url endings?) then you just go -

        <a href="http://mysite.com/mylink-{keyword1|keyword2|keyword3}">click here</a>

        If you want more info on spinning techniques, drop me a PM and I'd be happy to help you out.

          Thanks everyone for your replies. I understand how it works now.

          Why would you want to spin part of a link"?
          The idea of spinning just part of the link, is that was the only part changing, but it does make more sense to spin the whole link. I have a system where I create the root of the link, and then can add in keywords after the root, and they go to the same place.

          (Again, I don't do article spinning. This is just working out some theory on how to add some cool SEO to article spinning done by my clients.)
