Viral Content for my Website

[MrT131]

Hey BHW,

i'm thinking about starting a viral content blog/website.
It will look like buzzfeed and i also want to have viral artices like them.

Do you guys think it's okay to copy their articles or where should i get them from?

copy paste is not working, your AdSense will block, try to rewrite the articles then use.

I'm sure you're the first person to think of this

Why do you need to copy, hire a writer and rewrite their content, but your site won’t last for long if you can’t get original content

You need to do own research based on recent trends.

Since he has a german profile picture I assume he wants to translate the content into german

No it is not okay, unless you are planning to bring traffic through ads and stuff rather than organic ranking.

You Can copy the idea of latest news, and write it in your own language but It is highly unlikely you will get organic traffic based on copied content

i am not saying it is not possible to get ranking with copied content, i am just saying highly unlikely

What do you mean? Because people say that this niche is saturated?

Or because of copying content?

Sounds good, Thanks!

I wan to do it English, because I’ll bring traffic from my Instagram accounts and I have a big US audience

Don't copy content, rewrite it, or even better, write your own content.

There's nothing wrong with curated content, but you will need to re-write it so it's not a direct copy and paste.

A good source of content when you're starting out is to go through the archives of viral sites and find posts from a while ago that have some interest. Use them as a starting point (including the images), but re-write the text as much as you can. Be sure to use h/t (hat tip) at the end of your post to recognise the original source. Or find funny videos and write your own short intro.

If you're looking for a quick and dirty short-term way to create a viral site, you could always get some autoblogging software and populate your site using other viral sites' RSS feeds. Some software even includes content spinning for unique output. It depends on how you want to monetise your site. Adsense would probably have a problem with the quick and dirty version.
