It will be tough to rank, although you will get traffic from forums and social media sites, so you can take some good with some bad there
Unfortunately, scraped content ranks just fine. There is a risk of a manual action later on down the line though. If you're also going for social traffic then you have both routes covered. Good luck.
Why google have to rank you instead of the better and original one. Your website has no authority and no unique content. For me its not possible to rank. It might be if you put tons of link, but not for long. Lastly, organic traffic from search engines is best and most solid source man. Your content will not be shared if it's not interesting.
Interesting. I just started a blog, basically for my own amusement, talking about premier league football and all that comes with it.
What im concerned about after seeing this thread is, how can my content be unique, for example my last post was about the premier league game tomorrow, Liverpool v Everton. Now, i give my thoughts on the game which will be unique but alot of my posts contain stats on the 2 teams and their recent games etc etc. which certainly wont be unique, that kind of info can be found on almost any sports site.
How can i talk about the premier league and keep it completely unique? I put quite alot of effort into this blog (my 1st) and planned on making it better and better but now i think im wasting my time. Money isnt my main goal. Ranking well so people can enjoy my views on football is pretty much my only goal right now. But i guess i'll never rank.
Its a never ending learning curve for me lol. Oh well
Read the whole thread brother.. Don't listen to misinformed noobs trying to boost post count or promote their BST thread. That's the one thing that pisses me off about SEO is the brain washing going on. IT NEEDS TO STOP!
Your right, i read over the thread fully and have a better understanding now, linking back to the source is something i didn't put much thought into, i have done it but i probably haven't done it enough, will certainly do it at every opportunity from now on. Ok my journey continues. Thanks procam. I will take care to read more thoroughly from now on.
Hey guys.
I'm building a blog but most of its articles will not be unique.
Around 95% of its articles will come from sources that most likely will be also source for other websites.
I'm planning to get most visits from social media, but my plan is to try to rank it and get visitors from searches.
Will this be a problem to rank it on Google or any other search engine??
What are the negative affects on SEO for websites with content that can be also found somewhere else?
Thanks.
I don't think that's going to happen.
You can always target the social media by the way.
Keep your blog visually attractive in that case.
These people have no clue what they are talking about, I've done it and ranked. This type of misinformation is the result of SEO Guru's & writers trying to keep market alive.
Like it'll die if people found this out anyways, it's really sadOh, and ALWAYS link back to the source with a summery that you wrote. Ever wonder why certain websites with "duplicate content" get linked to naturally? Linking to the source..
