I have been running my automated blog for 2 weeks now. And the results are great. I am running at more than 1000 uniques per day now, people are commenting, posts are being pinged.

The reason why this works seems because I am not using standard software to get to the content. I wrote all code myself to search and scrape content and put it nicely into the blog.

While there are many plugins that do exactly the same, these really didn’t have the same effect. With a same quality .com domain name and the same kind of content, the results of Google, Live and Yahoo indexing were far (far!) worse than with my new software.

So what’s new?

First of all a bit of bla about the ethical implications of this as people are asking me about that. With the state of the current blog I am only sendingĀ  the traffic to the original source. They originals are getting more traffic because of me and because their SEO skills suck.

I am not making money with this currently; this, for me, is justĀ  a simple experiment to see if it is easy to do or not. And it easy although you need to be a programmer as you need original software to pull it off. More about that later when I want to start making money with this.

Second thing I am trying is generating content from scratch a lot more, trying to get a complete 100% original site going which makes money. That is my original goal and that will happen in the future. I hope.

The new site has been launched today and I’ll add my findings to this blog as I always do!
