I think dup still indexed by google, but I never benefited from getting pages indexed only.
I have an article directory before actually, google indexed two thousands of pages but it never brought me cash.
A site must get targetd traffic, that's why I doubt about autoblog strategy. Tell people building auto blogs then cash in without promotion.
Google surely index my auto blogs, but they also filter most of posts, and never bring traffic for me. I only get traffic when I so some promotion.
So I am wondering how those guys have 100 blogs and set and forget. How they do that?
Where they get traffic? I think there is one very important factor missing.
I thought about that last night as I signed off and went to bed. Did not mean to say just build the blog and do no promotion with it. Though you'll eventually get traffic/earnings [depending on how you set them up...some I hear get nada, but their setups are not really conducive to driving traffic either], you will see earnings a whole lot quicker if you promote them. I moreso meant that you do not have to touch your blog: add posts, approve comments, add categories, add links, etc. Nothing involving logging into the admin side basically. Everything else you can automate: bookmarking/commenting or pay for promotion. But once you have done the initial building, I would say you only need to do this once you see traffic dropping or earnings dropping [though checking your sites is recommended if this be the case...could be like me and have 404 errors all over the place! lol]. People that think they can setup a blog in a day and then have it earning for them that month without them doing anything are not all going to be so lucky. And people would be lying if they say it cannot be done altogether because some niches are just that easy to earn with, but that's over time; why wait?
The difference btwn autoblogs and a regular blog is the approach/how you handle them, but the same rules apply to an autoblog as any other site you want to earn with: you need traffic.
to the mate asking how to get traffic and complaining that it always comes back to "traffic sources", get off your lazy azz and think. If you need to be lead through the whole process of 'signup, activate, create, do this, do that' bs then the online game is not your bag. You are given traffic sources [and yes even methods really if you read around here for a second] so that you can use your own methods. So you can use basic methods. So you can GET TRAFFIC. What is a traffic method but a direction of how to use a TRAFFIC SOURCE right? So no, you are wrong mate. You are given the help, you are just choosing not to use it because it is not being spoonfed to you. I use senuke to sign up to social sites, bookmark and submit rss feeds, and do article submissions among other tools. But I certainly am not going to write a how to guide on senuke--I'm sure their tutorials will suffice-- or how to join squidoo and create a lens--there are plenty of ebooks out there for this. Just because it is not spoon fed to you does not mean it's not there.
@the mate asking about plat seo-- it's self explanatory mate: activate, go to it, and fill in the info it asks [hint: title=your web title, keywords=your keywords, and guess what? description=description. =D]. Configure the way you want and you are good to go. I won't go into details on that part only because I know that info can be found with a little work because I found it myself too.
SEO smart links will link keywords in articles on your site to other related posts on your site, or link specific keywords to specific urls that you provide, and will give you the option to add a no follow attribute to all external urls and so forth.....but this is stillllll all stuff you can find out by actually activating the plugin and looking at it.
