Auto-Blogging - Good Idea or Bad Business?

Posted: Feb 19, 2011 |Comments: 0 |
Auto blogging is the latest trend in the blogosphere. Is this an effective way to build content on your blog, or are you asking for trouble? Auto blogging can definitely pay off if you have the right strategy and plug-ins in place. You do not want to set up a blog that gets dozens of new posts every day scraped from RSS feeds and article directories. This will get your site banned from Google's primary index in a hurry.

On the other hand, if you have plug-ins that will spin your content and make it unique and your blog is updated with 5 to 10 new posts each day, the strategy can work. There are many WordPress plug-ins that will enable you to auto-tag your blog and spin the content. Combined with the right search engine optimization plug-ins, you can build relevant posts with titles, descriptions and keywords based on the post and associated tags.

It is recommended that you develop an understanding of what you need to have in place before you take on the world of auto blogging. If you don't know what you're doing, you can end up ruining your domain names chances of ever being taken seriously in the eyes of the search engines.

Some people however will use domain names that they do not particularly care about and instead of using an overall SEO strategy, they will submit their blogs RSS feed to multiple directories, social bookmarking sites, ping sites and other status sites to drive traffic. This strategy can be very effective if your blog is set up to monetize the traffic coming in.

The real benefit of this strategy would be to offer the traffic coming into your site real value in exchange for their contact information. You have heard it before, the money is in the list, and my friends it most definitely is.

If you have your WordPress blog set up in such a way as to capture your visitors information by providing them with real related value, auto blogging can be an absolute gold mine. Think about it. You set a blog up initially with a pop-up, give away on the back end and moneymaking links throughout the content, submit that blog to RSS feed directories as well as all of the major bookmark, status and ping sites and your traffic will no doubt turn into money in your pocket.

My only advice is to use a domain name, or names that you do not intend to use in an SEO strategy. I am not saying that blogging will automatically get your site blacklisted, but it is a risk that you are taking, especially if you are not taking the necessary steps to make the content on your blog unique in the eyes of the almighty Google and other search engines that will be coming across your site.

If you are smart, you can definitely get listed and monetize the traffic that will come in for years to come.

    Advertising today is like the weather. Everyone talks about advertising, but few entrepreneurs do enough about it to change or improve it. When you ask what the "big deal" is with advertising, that's an excellent question, because no matter how you want to view it there is one proven fact which is true of business owners and entrepreneurs worldwide... In today's recessionary spiral, every good entrepreneur wants to do more with less.
