Is Article Spinner really necessary for SEO?

I think you meant to say IF in your sig bro. Just a heads up.

this is complete bollocks. I have many blogs, all ranking well, on the same root article. Some of them are on Blogspot.

yep, just change the title, its about SEO so no point competing for top 10 positions when 100 versions of the article exist - title changes and new keywords.

I disagree. If you distribute the same articles (with exact wording) to multiple sites, Google will mark them as duplicate content, place them in the supplemental index, and any backlinks within them will be useless.

I agree the best spinner is simply the best. I have been using it for a month now and it greatly speeds up the spinning process of my articles.

I have numerous blogs that contain only spun articles, and the more
mature sites bringing in cold hard cash every single day, even though
I've not touched them in months. Will I show you proof? No. A lot of
my blogs are on Blogspot, and I don't want to give them a reason to
search and destroy. In addition to that, I only show my girl friend the
money.. oh.. and the TAX man. I have nothing to prove here.

Hi keivn2,

An article spinning tool is just a tool. Some of these tools are much better than others. It's not the tool, but how you use the tool that makes all the difference. If you just click a few buttons and expect that you are going to produce high quality content with a spinner you have it all wrong.

To get quality you must use human authored content. That is not to say that a human can't use an article spinner to rewrite content. A really good article spinning tool will allow you to select, or author, all the alternative paragraphs, sentences or words that make perfect sense to human readers. Then you can use a human editor to refine or improve the final product. There is absolutely no reason that you can't output the exact same quality with a good spinner that you can do manually.

You would probably be amazed at the amount of high quality content that is produced with an article spinner in the hands of a skilled editor. You probably read spun content daily that you could never tell was spun. It's only when you see a half-assed application of these tools that you are aware of the silly content that is produced.

To use an analogy, some people use article spinners by just letting the tool spit out random synonyms. That's kinda like mowing your lawn by just putting your riding mower in gear and letting it run across your lawn without a driver. It's gonna cut some grass but it's gonna be ugly!

If you are rewriting articles on a regular basis, you'd be foolish to not consider a good article spinning tool. You can put out the same level of quality and increase productivity by a magnitude. Quality is determined by how you use the tool!

You got it certainly right!

Setting duplicate content penalty aside as it is just another myth and it's a different story, just the very fact alone that it would be quite easier for original content to outrank pages with duplicate content. Why waste time spinning articles of others which still turns out to be duplicate content? It's just a load of crap and a total waste of time..:rolleyes:

I think article spinners are a good option, because currently Google isn't really able to distinguish between texts with different words and "almost" same meaning (no matter what they say).

My colleague has been using an article spinner and he has only improved the positions of his website.

But, if you wanna be sure, just delete and exchange some paragraphs after passing your text through an article spinner.

The bolded part above is simply not true! How exactly does Google know if a word has been spun? You can make the case that Google may eventually penalize for poor grammar as this is always the case with content created using that magic "autospin" button.
