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 A content spinner "tool" or script is an outdated technique and will only cause your site tp have ranking problems.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!

LOL
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.

Is there harm in publishing too much content, at once?
We are working on catching up with some competition, who has done a much better job over the last few years with content creation. We normally publish 1 article a day but are looking at scaling that up to 3 to 4 articles a day so we can get our content out there to compete with the other websites, in keyword space we currently aren't in. Is there a negative impact on publishing too much content at once? Is there a negative impact on publishing too much content at once? Besides the probable inability to market all of it, I don't see any issues since we will be getting our articles indexed and out there for Google to start building value on them. However, some team members are apprehensive about doing too much at once. What are your thoughts Moz Community?

Different WP Taxonomies seen as duplicate content
Hey guys, We're seeing Moz report "duplicate" content on pages like: mysite.com/interesting-category/ and mysite.com/interesting-tag. Why exactly is this, and is there something that we should do about this? Obviously some of the same posts will intersect on pages like category, tag, author pages. Thanks

Product descriptions, when do they become classed as duplicate content, how different do they have to be?
I look after 3 sites which have a lot of crossover on products. We have 1000s of products and I've made it a requirement that we give each it's on description on each of the sites. This sounds like the right thing to but it's very hard for our content writers to write three different versions descriptions, especially when we have variations on the products so potentially writing unique product descriptions for 4-5 very similar products on three separate sites. We've worked very hard to create unique content deep through the site on all categories, subcategories and tag combinations and along with the other SEO work we've done over the last couple of years is producing great results. My question is now far do we have to go? I'm busy writing some product descriptions for a 3rd party site for some of our products, the easy thing to do is just copy and paste but I want Google to see the descriptions as unique. Whilst all SEO advice will say 'write unique descriptions' from a practical point of view this isn't especially useful as there doesn't really seem to be much guidance on how different they need to be. I gather we can't just move around the paragraphs or jumble up sentences a bit but it is easier to work from a description and change it than it is to start from a blank slate (our products range form being very interesting and unique, to quite everyday so sometimes tough to create varied unique content for). Does anyone know of any guidance or evidence of just how clever the Google algorithm is and how close content has to be before it becomes classed as the same or similar? Thanks Pete

Is it considered as duplicate content ?
Hello, I see a lot of errors on my webmaster tools because of this ajax code on my questions pages of the site (screen) : www.dismoicomment.fr The code : | / ADD ANSWER FORM |
Content Development | | elitepronostic
| | $("#answer-add-button").click(function () { |
| | $.ajax({ |
| | type: 'POST', |
| | url: '/answers/quelle-assurance-choisir-pour-un-scooter/', |
| | data: $("form#answer-add").serialize(), |
| | dataType: 'html', |

| | if(data=="answer") { |
| | $('.answer-add-message').show().empty(); |
| | $(document).ready(function() { |
| | $(' Vous avez déjà répondu à cette question. ').appendTo('.answer-add-message'); |
| | }); | I have add a line on my robots.txt : http://www.dismoicomment.fr/robots.txt for remove all urls with /answers/. These urls with /answers/ aren't indexed in google. Do you think that it is dangerous and that can be considered as duplicate content ? 1129546035.png0
