What are your thoughts about whether it's possible to rank on Google with well-rewritten content?
 
I've been doing this for the last 2 months. Not in a big volume though.

The results for a fresh blog with no backlinks are promising.

The content ranks and keywords are being picked up.

The issue is that it's not ranking high, but it is out there, so google is picking it up.

No idea in the long run.

However, I'm not paraphrasing, but rewriting in a journalistic way. It means making sentences shorter, more on point, and succinct.

But I do keep the original idea and the article formatting.

I see this working great in a huge volume.

The issue is I'm losing around 45 minutes for 1,500 words, with pictures, formatting, posting, etc. Sometimes even 1 hour.

Using tools to just change up synonyms is pure crap, and I would advise against it from a manual review point of view. I might be wrong though.

If you have free time on your hands, totally go for it. If you pull off 1000 articles, I approximate at least 3,000 or more UV/day on a decent niche.
 
There is a classic trick: translate to a different lang, then retranslate to the original one and start rewriting from there (or better than rewriting you will be proofreading). It's a mischievous technique, but works

Seems like a lot of work.

I do this with some blogs, but I don't translate back again - and just proof read it. Can pop up a 1500 words article in 30 minutes or less, that is totally unique.

You can search foreign Google in your niche "Google.com/?gl=It", google ur niche "coffee maker" in Italian for an example, put google translate on, translate the site from Italian to English. Find the content you want, put the site back in Italian. Copy it. Translate it to english and proof read it and just use the article as a inspiration. Bang out a good article. There ya go.

Thanks for sharing your 2 months experience, I think it's normal for not ranking higher just after 2 months.
Pulling in 1000 posts will take ages since it takes me roughly 2 hours to rewrite a 1000 word post.

I've done it in the past and I can say it works.
But now I'm working on a niche that's USA specific and for that reason there's no content available in other languages.
 
I can paraphrase 4000-5000 word articles in one hour using Quillbot and Grammarly. At the end of those transformations, I proof-read to check for grammatical errors/punctuations, and out-of-ordinary sentence constructs. Then feed the output to Quetext to ensure uniqueness.
 
US specific as this product or service doesn't exist out of US, or that is just widely popular in US and not the rest of the world?

My question to you is does your article rank?

USA specific as service doesn't exist out of the states.

This is what people should be doing, but a lot think you use an Ai writer, press 1 button and then publish straight off.
These tools are only as good as the information and effort humans put in.
 
1 billion impressions ??? April fools is long gone mate.

Yep, it is. Unfortunately a simple linux VPS can handle as many April foolers as it wants, especially when given the google golden gift with 100+ domains... and some auto blogging

Yeah, I get it now. ;)

That's a trade secret, young man!

I can confirm this works. I was doing this last fall slightly & had success with the ~20 articles I ended up posting.

Seems like a lot of work.

Not much more work than using an AI or even writing the articles yourself. It depends on if you want what you're working for or not.
