Using spun articles to build backlinks

I need advice on using spun articles to build links from web2 sites to my main sites. I want to order some articles from 1dollararticle.com. Although, I've not ordered from the site before. They have 2 sets of articles, the premium goes for$3 which is handwritten and the regular which is spun but passes copyscape goes for 1$.

Any one with any experience ordering articles from this site? And with the continuous updates on google(panda and pegiune) can I still use spun articles of such for building backlinks?

Your advice will be highly appreciated.

    Raphael,

    I have never ordered from that site, but here is my take on spun articles. (Others will, no doubt, have a different opinion.)

    I always look for quality, period. I have my own spinning software and I will write an article, then edit and spin it for backlinking purposes but the spun articles have to pass a few tests.

    I ALWAYS reread the spun article.
    If there are errors or grammar that does not sound right, I change it before I use it. One of my major rules is it has to read like an original article.

    Thank of it as syndication if you like. I write an article on Dog Training and spin it and edit it for the audience who will see that version of my article.

    Spelling
    Do I really need to say more? Yes, I occasionally misspell words because I am not naturally a very good speller. But for heaven's sake, there is software for that!

    It will miss words spelled correctly but used incorrectly so you can't completely relax just because it does not underline any words in your article. Nobody is perfect, but I will click away from a post faster then you can say "Wha!?" if there are glaring misspelled words or grammar issues.

    I find shorter is often better.
    I have a tendency to write long, lengthy articles (and posts) unless I keep myself in check. People will not generally read a post that goes on for pages. They want to get some information and move on.

    There are other things I looks for, but those are the major things for me.

    So, if I were you I would order a batch from 1dollararticle.com and see how they spin there articles.

    -->Is the article readable with correct grammar?
    -->Are there a lot a mistakes I have to take my time and fix?
    -->Do I like the information they provide in the articles I purchased, or are they simply fluff with no real substance?

    I would happily pay $1-$3 dollars for articles that pass those tests.


    I hope that helps you a little.

    All the best...

      Spinning still works but you need a human spinner. I also go for close to 100% uniqueness.

    I only use ultra spun articles for back linking purposes. These are articles manually spun on paragraph,sentence, and word level with at least 3+ variations on each section.

    Keep in mind, this will cost more but it will pay for itself over time when your site continues to rank regardless of the google updates. Dont be cheap, It's wiser to go the extra mile and protect your assets by creating quality. You will thank yourself later.

    Good Luck

    Spinning software's spin the content very well but don't check grammatical mistakes and duplication of words in the sentence. Ultra spinnable article of 500 to 600 words with a million of variations in affordable price do wonders for us..

    Spinning is basically giving money to someone to make your marketing strategy worse.

    Google wants natural, organic links and natural, organic content. The internet is the information super-highway, after all, so provide useful information and not only will people love you, but Google will too.

    This idea of article marketing as an SEO tool is crazy and does not work. Think about what you are providing, as a service, to other internet users before you do something. If you are providing no service of value, then it's likely that Google will take that view too - and more importantly, so will your customers.

    No, remember the second letter in IM. It's not PageRank or Search Engine, no, it's Marketing. So use some of it, and you'll go a long way.

    Use spun content on a minimal level, ex: use only 3 versions of the spun content. Keep in mind not to use them before the main content in your site gets indexed.

    Spinning still works if you manually spin it. Make sure that it's still readable and there are no grammar and spelling errors. Spin it like you are re-writing it.

    For 2 more dollars, just go for the 100% unique articles.

    Spun articles do work for some things, like building backlinks, but they need to be very unique. Never use them on your own site, or even sites pointing directly to your site. Ideally you would use them for tier 3 sites, ie sites pointing to sites that are pointing to your main website.

    Spinning is not a very good strategy, unless once you spin the article you go through it and edit it to be readable for humans

    Practically speaking, yes it can be used to build backlinks. You said their articles have no copyright issue according to copyscapce. Besides, 1 dollar for an article that has no copyright infringement is somehow worth your money.

    Well, they won't be as effective as if the articles were unique. This is just an example of what members see:

    You are looking for a very interesting article about basketball for example. Then you search this in google and find 10,000 results. You decided to read the first 5 and see than 4 of them are the same article... Then if you find another article (that is the same!), you would immediately click the X button, wouldn't you?

    So, this is the same. People want UNIQUE and INTERESTING articles

    It seems, you are not in form in SEO. According to Google guidelines, Content is the backbone of text links. The main reason for Penguin update is, spun articles (unreadable, gibberish grammar and so) disturbed the users of Google a lot. Google always try to provide quality results to its users. Whoever interrupts this, Google punishes them by updating its algorithm.

    Anyway, I come to the point. Using spun article is not a matter, you can use spun articles after verifying its uniqueness and check whether it is readable by human or not.

    Mostly, cheap article writing service providers are using automatic spinning software to create number of articles. Better to be aware of them.

    In my point of view, Google hates spun articles so it is always best to stay away from spun articles to build bulk back links. It will create a negative point to your site. I Hope you understood.

    Hey,

    I haven't ordered from the site you mentioned ever so I can't judge them but what you can do is order one unique article and one spun article on the site and see if the quality matches your expectations.

    You can also order an article or a bunch of them on other outsourcing sites such as Guru, VWorker, iWriter, Freelancer, Odesk, etc. and try to find a person with the best price/quality ratio.

      And here is an example of spun content that WordAi automatically generated for me:
      Property possessed by banks could be a great option for first-time home buyers, those searching for inexpensive properties, and personal traders. The bulk of lender owned properties are offered below present market value, nevertheless several also need considerable repairs.

      Purchasing property possessed by banks will need research. Purchasers should get repair price estimates to decide if the home is a lucrative investment. Discounted properties can be a good deal or become a money-pit, but with appropriate research customers can reduce risks.

      Bank owned properties are not restricted to just residential dwellings. Purchasers can also find commercial realty and undeveloped land parcels that have been repossessed by lenders due to mortgage default.
      Spinning is only bad if the spun content reads bad or isn't unique. But if a spun article looks like it was written well and is unique enough to pass copyscape there are definitely no problems with spinning!

      • Sometimes it's easier and less time consuming to write a unique article rather than using article spinning software. Everyone knows that unique content is far more valuable than spun articles. It is better to spend a few extra minutes writing a unique post than publishing one that doesn't make sense.

          yep if you pay for it takes around 1 1/2 days of doing this and nothing else plus the time of putting contextual links in the correct way which with the size of these spins takes some considerable time.

    spun articles are not worthy for the link building process,because google updates not supports the spun contents.so must avoid to use spun contents.

    Spun articles, done manually, 3 or 4 different sentences per sentence, checked for grammar and spelling before use are just as good as writing a new article yourself. I get upwards of 90% unique when I spin this way.

    Nobody is ever going to get 100% unique unless you create a new language so 90% is pretty good if you ask me.

    Those of you who don't want to spin fine, but those just spurting crap as usual here just to repeat what the last guys said and get your post count +1 are just talking crap. Nothing at all wrong with spinning if done right.
