In this journey I'll try BLACK HAT for the first time. I'm running a WH blog which is going well at the moment (see journey here) so now I'm looking for a new challenge and another source of income. This is a side project, so I'll still put most of my efforts in the WH blog.
Autoblogging journeys TOTALLY fascinate me! I've been researching them lately. I've seen the best techniques from BHW members like: jonnyah, randomuser321, brrupsz and a few others. But without advanced coding skills I won't be able to replicate their results. At most I can copy paste some code found online and tweak it a little.
So I decided to use the Lorem Ipsum method that I found in @Holzr's journey. Basically the content is pure trash, random words sprinkled with your keywords. It's the laziest, simplest way of generating content.
So why am I not afraid that Google will detect the trash content and penalize it? I'm sure Google can detect gibberish when it comes to English language but I bet it doesn't detect that stuff in a foreign language, probably it doesn't even care. It's this hypothesis that I want to test in my journey.
The budget is $10 (domain and hosting) because I want to start small and see if it works, so I won't be using any paid tools like Jarvis or Quillbot. Also I won't use free wp content generation plugins because everybody uses them and gibberish will probably rank better on a new blog than aggregators or badly spun duplicate content, plus the gibberish is unique, lighter, more flexible, easier to manage and create.
Tools:
I'll generate content using a combination of these free generators: https://loremipsum.io/ultimate-list-of-lorem-ipsum-generators/ (thanks @RoiBox for the link, really entertaining stuff xD)
Redirect cloaker: The real user never sees the gibberish content and gets redirected to offers. I myself haven't decided on a specific cloaker but I'll pick a free one from this section: https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/cloaking-and-content-generators.2/
Since only crawlers will see the real content, the pages can look ugly, so I don't even need a theme, wordpress, or fancy stuff, just bare naked raw HTML. You can find free html generators in google, they turn your text into html, so you don't even need to know/learn basic html. Or, for the laziest of you, just rename the raw generated text files to html extension and google will be able to read and index it without html tags anyway
.
For keyword research I'll use semrush (trial), keywordseverywhere (free) and keywordtool.io (free).
The plan:
1. Pick niche with low comp keywords and decent offers.
2. Build list of keywords and filter it (manually at first).
3. Use content generator to create articles for the list of keywords.
4. Get cheap domain and hosting for 1 month and upload the content.
5. Add redirect cloaker that sends visitors to offer.
6. If traffic starts coming and I get conversions, I'll rinse and repeat with another niche/offer.
The idea is to build many small splogs, because I can target offers more accurately with each one and won't have to put all eggs in a single domain. Plus, google will index them fully faster since they're not huge like the usual splogs.
