Can scraped content still rank?

That might just be one of the most stupid things I've read on a forum in my entire life.

Which algorithm is checking to see if content is copyrighted? When have google ever said this?

Read the whole thread and read what OP actually wants to do.
Your comment is just plain pathetic... READ first.

Where did I say that google checks it? read or just don't comment.

I've read it twice.

Your claim is if it's copyrighted material then google won't rank it.

You're literally making shit up. Where do you get that information?
 
Anything is possible, I see this happening all the time in some niches ;)

Here's my only comment: "Because those descriptions, images, etc are NOT copyrighted.
Whereas hand written reviews are copyrighted. "

OP wants to scrape the whole website, let's say it's your site seofarmer.com and people advised him NOT to scrape your site.
Then he asked why people were allowed to copy product information and rank.

My answer expained:
He's not allowed to copy your website as the content on your site seofarmer.com belongs to you and thus copyrighted.
On the other hand... the product stuff including pictures and descriptions are not copyrighted so he could use them freely.

Where did I say anything about google???
 
Better to pass it through Word AI to have a better chance at ranking. Lots of black hat methods still working with Big G. It's just a trial and error to find the golden niche for which it works.

You're on a black hat forum talking about not copying content... oh my lord, boy are you lost?

If you copy content you might get a DMCA email, that's about it.

Yes it is

I think many IM'ers on this forum will disagree with you.
It's an IM forum, not dodgy blackshit forum. And copying websites and neg attacking competitors are frowned upon here... just read some theads.
 
I am thinking about Word for Word scraping an entire website, and trying to rank it. Then modifying the content as the website ranks, if it ranks at all. The website has almost 2000 articles, all of which are in an extremely low competition niche, and some of which him being the only person in the niche all together. (decent traffic keywords, some having over 20,000 searches / month)

Would my best bet be to not even attempt this? Is there any potential at all for this to go good?
Nice idea mate, I heard that google algorithms is scanning for copy-paste and automatically ranks you down if you get identified as a copy-paster :D
You need to figure out how you can automatically rearrange the sentences that they will still have proper meaning.
 
You are wasting your time on this.

As per Google, you can not rank copied content.

Even if you start to rank (as Google is acting weirdly nowadays) original website owner will file DMCA and your whole efforts will go in drain.
What complete rubbish.

Anyone can do it very easy.

You just need to know what content will pass duplicate rules and it will get indexed.

There a famous app on here
Argo content

Earns a lot of people thousands daily, it uses scrape content and spin it and then post to a blog very powerful.

So yes it can be done 100%
 
I suggest considering expired content. Find content archived on domains that expired (via archive.org or elsewhere). The chance of DMCA takedown must be lower than scraping currently live content.
 
Better teach you all the method.

Grammarly.

All you do is change the words that duplicate an error and use Grammarly to give you an alternative meaning to pass the duplication flag.

And yes that easy.

You just changing words with other words from Grammarly to stop duplication...

Now you might realise why Grammarly sold on a black hat forum.

If you want content there many ways to get it free, you can read many methods on here.

I no most ways why because no eyes.
Content my favourite issue to solve so yes everything works above fully tested .

You're completely wrong.
 
Why not just rewrite his best ranking content? Copying is just a lazy way to go about it, and opens you up to a lot of issues.
My competitor copy my content and never can get past 2nd page. Maybe it's also because of backlinks
 
The effort you put into blackhat techniques is better spent learning and implementing whitehat techniques.

you are in the blackhat seo section on this forum so... maybe then just stick to the whitehat seo section and ignore threads here if you dont like it.
 
OP,

I'm assuming you already did an .xml sittemap lookup to see how much content and which urls the target site has.

If so, Use SEMRush or AHREFS to find WHICH CONTENT already ranks and CROSS REFERENCE THIS info with the KEYWORD DIFFICULTY of that ranking content

Once you find content of his that already rank for LOW COMPETITION keywords, FILTER by estimated monthly searches.

Once you have a list of urls.... MANUALLY REWRITE THESE

How? Look up BRIAN DEAN'S SKYSCRAPER technique - in other words, KILL the competition with BETTER organization, more thorough content, and better keyword targeting ... and VALUE - your rewrite must pack more value.
 
Scrapped Content Highly affected for money sites and has no value for your website, better you can hire the native writer to make a job in professional way
