Auto-created content site owners

I know there's a lot of threads here about mass-auto-content creating scripts, but personally I don't care for most of them for a number of reasons.

They leave massive footprints (without extensive editing), are usually complicated to edit or add on-page features to (like keyword related media for example), risk getting you banned with some networks (if G thinks you're building MFA's), risk triggering duplicate content filters and etc.

Still, the huge upside is being able to create lots of pages very fast, and prosper from the volume.

So, my question is really would a script that almost eliminated all the negatives of auto-created pages, but as a trade-off required 2 or 3 minutes per page to build be of interest to the same people who already use mass-generation scripts? Or, is it strictly all about the volume and something in-between those instant mass page builders and manually creating pages wouldn't have a market?

To fully describe what I'm talking about, it's a script I've created. Here are the basics of what I've put together:

- the script works by building every page to a specific keyword, which is why it takes a couple of minutes per page to create as you have to edit the keyword variables for each page manually
- 100% of the on-page content comes from RSS feeds and is keyword based so that each page ends up having a ton of keyword related text (between 800 and 1200 words per page)
- the content is being pulled from 5 different sources so the risk of triggering any duplicate content filters is low, if not nill
- once a page is created, it will auto-update constantly so humans and bots should love these pages
- pages have some keyword related media as well as text content to be more useful and attractive to human traffic
- the page design (template HTML/CSS code) is minimal and even the CSS DIV tag names are held in variables just like the page keywords and meant to be changed with each site you build--to really reduce any template footprint

There's more, but this isn't a sales thread so I'll stop there. I just wanted to give a basic idea of what my script does so that anyone responding can give me better feedback.

Ultimately, it takes about 10 minutes to setup the script on a domain, and then about 2 or 3 minutes each for every page you create with it.

Given that time requirement vs. the reduced risks from some mass-content scripts do you think there'd be interest in this script among the same people using mass-content scripts already?

Well wouldn't be better to create a script..use it for some time and if is giving good results start selling on the market ?!

Sure it would, if selling the script was my only intention. At this point, I'm not even sure if I'll do that or not down the road.

I just figured that since I always see people looking for the instant 10,000 page site creation systems, I'd ask the experts here if they thought there would even be interest out there for something like this that's sort-of between the shortcut and the long road to site building...

As for using it myself, I certainly have been for a short while, and so far I'm happy with the results. I've only used it with YPN! and Amazon, still need to test affiliate stuff on a domain with this.

I'm thinking that may work really well since I am able to parse all of the text content before it gets displayed, I could setup certain keywords to automatically link to specific affiliates on pages for in-content links.

hi scb335

any chance of being able to test this script, could be something well worth looking at if its going to give less chance of being de-indexed by google

Argh, I replied to this right before the board got hijacked so my response was lost...

Anyway, thanks to all for the interest and input I've received. I've had the script up and running for a week now on my demo site, made over $5 yesterday with just 22 visitors (YPN ads) so I'm happy with how the script performs for monetization.

Now it's just "wait and see" to find out how the search engines treat pages created with it. My guess is they'll do fine and won't suffer any penalties or trigger flags of any kind, but time will tell for sure.

I've also sold a few copies of the script on another forum, so that's a bonus.

Thanks again for all the interest.

Could you post a link of your demo site.

Shmoe

For 2 reasons I won't post the demo URL. First, because I'm testing to see exactly how it does with SERPs using a control set of backlinks and promotion, so I'm trying to avoid loose links to the demo appearing in forums anywhere right now.

The other reason (and why I won't post it here with *'s to cloak it) is because 1 member has already told me the script was being shared here, but wouldn't provide the thread for me. Since we're not supposed to share fellow member's stuff and it seems like not everyone cares about that (or he'd have given me the thread URL) I'm leary of offering anything here at BHW now, which is a shame.

I think the thread has disappeared with all the hacking crap recently because I've searched hard and couldn't find it, but either way that doesn't change the fact that members should respect each other and the guidelines here, and when they don't everybody suffers for it.

Sorry

Getting, manipulating, and posting content is rather easy any more. The harder task is to get any real traffic to the site - I know that's a battle I continue to try to win .
