Will Blogger Spam My Blog, if?

3 replies
I am want to set up a blog on Blogger to promote an affiliate product. I was wondering if Blogger would consider my blog as a 'Spam blog'? If:

1) You only have 2 or 3 posts on your blog and don't update or post on it regularly? Like if you had a blogger blog up for years and never posted to it?

2) If you used your Blogger blog to promote affiliate products and you put a blog up on a great keyword phrase you found to be giving you lots of searches and low competition in Google, and you posted once a week to it and each post of yours had 1 link to your affiliate merchants website. If your blog had say 20 or more posts on it, and each of these posts had 1 link from the post linking to an affiliate website, would this flag my blog as being a spam blog?

3) Will Blogger allow someone to set up multiple blogs, each set up on a different keyword phrase, and each linking to the same affiliate product website that you are promoting? Basically, let's say you found 10 great keywords to use for your affiliate promotion, would it be fine to set up a blog on Blogger for each of these keywords? So, if you found 10 or more good keyword phrases to use in your affiliate promotion, can you create a Blogger blog on each of those keywords, so roughly, 10 blogs, and have each blog pointing to your affiliate website? Assuming that I have at least 3 posts on each blog. Will Blogger drop my account or label my blog as a 'spam blog' for having so many blogs and so many links pointing to the same affiliate merchant's website?

I have read Bloggers' terms of service, but being new to affiliate marketing and never have used Blogger before, I am not quite sure if I would be approaching this right?

I want to start properly from the very beginning!

Thank you so much for everyone who comments and can offer some suggestions!!

    firstly, i have a one page "experiment" lying dormant for more than a year now....still there (on blogger)

    secondly.....multiple links to the same domain moght be a problem - had it before. they froze my blog until i requested a review - and all i did was have half a dozen separate products from a company in the sidebar. so, suggestion....

    put 1 post per page - use the html box to add a (resource box type) link beneath the post

    yes, you can set up one page blogs...had a few at one stage...but you may have more leverage with more content in one place

    I consider blogger to be a regular website (with benefits)
    I do not suggest treating it as a parlor trick or a toy, it's just a method of delivering content.

    The spam triggers that I've had were when I set up three at once, did the technorati thing, google webmaster tools thing, google sitemaps thing and adsence... on all three BEFORE I even posted

    I requested review and was promptly approved.

    hope that helps
