Hi, roki4ka
How good is your site now? Do you still use Adsense on it and all is OK?
I'm going to try spinned content on my MFA site
Yes, 2 months ago I had to move it to a VPS, the traffic is good now.
Few of the blogs, that I was scraping articles from, have died during these months and I have found several new.
To my surprise, the articles are very good quality and most of the blogs that I am taking them from have super poor SEO and aren't ranking for anything.
But their articles are good and they rank very well as soon as I post them on the site.
2 of the blogs are posting articles with 300-500 words and these are my best reading articles. Short, very entertaining, with videos and pictures.
At the moment the site gets 20k-25k unique visits a day, no penalties and 7 page visits per visitor, with ~6 min time on site. The time on site isn't accurate and should be more. There is script approved by google for that but sadly it increases the resources required by the site, little.
I see around 150 blogs, most of them with different IPs, that are linking regularly to my articles. They aren't that big but there are few big enough to bring moderate traffic directly from them.
IMO the key to these type of sites is to find not too popular blog or several, with narrow to very narrow niches, from which to scrape the articles. Also, the articles should be 300-400-500 words max, imo, to keep the good quality of the spinner.
With the amount that I get, with this adsense account, I should have been already manually reviewed, months ago, and there are no penalties at all.
I like these kinds of projects - you start something for fun and test and it becomes well paid one.
If I had the will and desire to go further I would hire a professional to rewrite and improve the articles, aka removing any future risks of penalties caused by duplicate content and hopefully increasing the writing quality.
But meh, my eyes are set on different business plus I am 30 years old and I don't consider this very serious to spend more time than I am already spending on it.
P.S I am using ONLY adsense on it.
