Content Spinner Tool??? Worth? Recommendations?
-
Hi all !!
We have different websites in the english language (UK, IE, US, etc...), but we focus our content strategy (landing pages) in just one of them. We were thinking about using a Content spin tool to use this content in the other websites and give them an extra push in terms of SEO (content is the king :)).
Did you have any idea if they work fine?
Did you have any experience with them?
Can you recommend any?
Are they tools really worth or they are not working fine and after the spin a full review (and probably some re-write) is necessary?
Of course I´m talking about the paid ones.... Not even thinking about the free tools
Thanks for your help in advance !!!

Thank you all for your advice !!
We have decided to drop the idea of the spin tool and invest some resources in re-writing the content.
Thanks a lot and have a nice day

The others are absolutely correct. A content spinner "tool" or script is an outdated technique and will only cause your site tp have ranking problems. I couldn't imagine a use for a spinner tool now when it comes to organic search.
However, if you have a lot of ads to generate and you need to rewrite ad copy in order to test it you might find a spinner helpful. Even in that case, though, you'd want to manually review all of the results to make sure that they read correctly and the grammar is correct.

No problem at all - best of luck with the content

The greatest content spinner tool is your brain.
Instead of spinning content, if you're looking to share the same message across three different platforms, just bullet point the message of your landing page and craft unique content for each one around the main messages you're trying to get across.
Good luck!

Thanks for your answer Andy... We are a bit skeptical about this for that reason, we ask for advice for people that have used them or have experience with them.
Don´t be sorry, we appreciate your feedback
Thanks a lot

If I could add an animated graphic right now, it would be of someone waving their hands and shouting 'NO!'
Paid or free, you can't entertain anything like this if you don't want to get hit by a penalty or want to gain anything from Google.
Sorry, this is a big no-no.
Spend time on either writing or having someone write content for you. You might not get as much done if you are on a budget, but it will be unique and something that people will want to read.

Content Creation For Blog & Ranking Locally
Hey Everyone, I'm trying to rank for specific long tail key words such as: lower back pain treatment exercises lower back surgery options herniated disc exercises and etc. My question is: If I create a blog or article on these key words and integrate content and video within it and on youtube, will these blog posts come up locally when someone searches it within my area?

Developing supporting content for main ideas
I attended Mozcon this year and the session by Joe Hall "Rethinking Information Architecture for SEO and Content Marketing" has me considering some changes to our site structure and architecture. I'm currently putting together a landing page for our webinars but could things like webinars and case studies be considered supporting content to our main ideas? For example instead of my architecture being: home > webinars > webinar about an idea It could be: home > main idea 1 > webinar about an idea So my webinar landing page would link out to all of the different webinar pages on the site instead of being contained in this bucket. Just wanted to get some thoughts on this.

Add a Search box (content hub) for my website?
Hello We would like to introduce a search area in our website, to help our users to find all information regarding a specific topic (landing pages, infographics, blogs, videos, etc...). Before we decide to build everything internally, we were wondering if there is any widget or plugging to make this in a smooth way and that works fine. I have also seen that Google offers a custom search option to make this happens. I would really appreciate advice about what to do regarding this topic: Is there any company that offers a really good solution for this? Is worth to use Google custom search option? Or the best option is build it internally? PS: I have seen that there are many plugins for wordpress, but our site is not a wordpress blog. Just to clarify. Many thanks for your help 🙂

Are press releases that could end up being published with duplicate content links point back to you bad for your site ?
With all the changes to the seo landscape in the resent years im a little unsure as to how a press release work looks in the eyes of Google (and others). For instance, you write up a 500 word press release and it gets featured on the following sites : Forbes Techcrunch BBC CNN NY Times etc ... If each of these cover your story but only rewrite 50% of the article (not saying these sites wouldn't re write the entire artcile, but for this purpose lets presume only 50% is rewritten) could it be negative to your backlink profile, ? Im thinking not, as these sites will have high authority, but what if once your press release is published on these sites 10 other smaller sites re publish the stories with almost no re writing, either straight from the press release or straight from the article in the mainstream news sites. (For clarification this Press release would be done in the fashion of a article suggestion to relevant journalists, rather than a blanket press release, via PR Newswire, mass mail out etc. Although i guess the effect with duplicate content backlinks is the same.) You now have c. 50 articles online all with very similar content with links pointing back at you, would this have a negative effect or would each link just not carry as much value as it normally would. By now we all understand publishing duplicate content on our own sites is a terrible idea, but dose have links pointing back to your self from duplicate (or similar) content hosted on other sites (some being highly authoritative) effect your site 's seo ?

Copywriter Recommendations?
There are a handful of pages, I'd like to get a fresh perspective on content-wise. They rank well and get traffic. However, we are not seeing the conversions we want to see, so I'm thinking a fresh pair of eyes could help write something more compelling. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on pricing (yes, feel free to self-promote)? Thanks, Ruben P.S. I'm really not looking for any ESL elance type solutions unless there are some strong writing samples.

Promoting blog content
I've created a pinterest board, which kind of serves as a blog also as it tells people how they can save money on their heating bills this winter. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to promote it as a backlinking opportunity? Would it be good to also feature the content on our website? Guest blogging? Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you.

Reusing Older content urls
Hi I have Windows Phone Games related site , we often post press release for various games as soon as they get released and later in a week or 2 we review some of these games . My question is , would it be better if I use use the old post and just delete the press release and post the review in that space . I will use an example to explain the situation Today I will do a press release : http://www.bestwp7games.com/infinite-flight-flight-simulator-for-windows-phone-7.html then say after a week I publish a review : http://www.bestwp7games.com/infinite-flight-windows-phone-flight-simulator-review.html My question is would it be better ( from an SEO point of view ) if I just delete the content from http://www.bestwp7games.com/infinite-flight-flight-simulator-for-windows-phone-7.html and add the review content in to that post ? PS : I am not a SEO guy so this might be a stupid question , if it is just go easy on me 🙂
