Automated blogs can be a great source of targeted traffic. As with everything you do you should weigh the merits of the proposal. You can set your autoblog up to automatically post a number of times a week or even every day. Did I mention that these posts are automatic and do not require me to do anything?
Some additional benefits to building a blog like this follow. It is very easy to generate 150-200 visitors a day. Having even a couple hundred of targeted visitors can increase your possiblities enormously. These blogs free you from having to write the content yourself. This technique builds 1000s of pages targeting long tail keywords with very low competition.
By building these types of
automated blogs your blog will grow on autopilot and you will see a substantial increase in the number of pages indexed in the search engines. Targeted traffic will increase as the number of pages optimized with keywords start to rank. This will increase your adsense income or sales of whichever product or service you are promoting. These benefits of automated blogging make for an interesting study of how to use this technique in your business.
What about the disadvantages of creating these types of blogs. One of the complaint heard about autoblogging is that you will be serving duplicate content and get slammed by the search engines. You only have to do a search on a keyword or two to know that that is not the case. Duplicate content on the same site is penalized though.
For some reason people seem to have trouble understanding content that they can use. Submitting the same article to hundreds of article sites as well as my own blogs have dis-proven the duplicate content myth. Automatic content whether duplicate or not is the purpose of getting the articles from another source.
Automated blogs hold many advantages and very few disadvantages. Keyword targeted content is placed in your blog on a daily basis hands off. Ebay auctions, Amazon products and even videos can be placed on autopilot. Growing your site naturally over time will cause the search engines to come back many times to check new content. Search engines love to visit sites that change over time, by adding content slowly over time you will see more spider visits. By providing high quality content your visitors will find value in your site and stay on the site longer.
