Lightbulb rewrite or reuse

I have been collecting quite a few articles from a few ezine websites over the past month and have built up a nice selection for a blog, But should I look to rewrite them as I am sure that they are well indexed all ready or post them as is creating more back links for some one else ?

Are you worry about your blog will get banned by Google b'coz of duplicate contents? If not, you can go ahead to reuse it, otherwise you should try to rewrite or get unique contents.

I did not think it would get banned but just of cuase a lower rating if the content was all ready out there and well indexed.

My understanding is that if you use an article in full with the relevant acknowledgement in their sig file, that's OK. It's building content with other people's stuff and there's nothing wrong with that. You can check the frequency of the article out there, but you need something like Orwell Pro, which is great for that.

If they are your own or PLR articles for your own site, then it's worth 'topping and tailing' them (new first para and last para and headline).

If you are using them as articles to put out on EzineArticles, iSnare or ArticleMarketer, for example, then a 75-80% rewrite is necessary.

For myself, I use existing articles as a template, load them into Notepad and write each paragraph for myself, using their paragraph as my inspiration!

It takes me about 15 minutes to create a new article, I then write and refine a little. And it is new - I copy nothing and use my own words and thoughts. In fact a Top Ten I used once was cribbed from a magazine - I used, but reordered the ten and put my own descriptors of each heading in place.

I've been playing a bit with Content Spinner which means I have to spend about an hour on an article (longer than it takes to write it in the first place), creating the optional phrases/sentences/paragraphs, but then I have as many articles as I like to use for the future on a particular topic. I find it easy to use.

Trouble is, I might only want 10 articles on that topic, so it seems a bit of a waste when I have a hundred (or a thousand) tighly niched articles - I don't hink they are sufficiantly different to use as articles for submission, though they are good content for the site, within their category.

I have run them through DupeFree and I get about a 50% differential when I use CS and it's something I'm still learning.

Early days - lots of fun!

Martin

Its best to rewrite the content in order to ensure that the article is unique.

Using duplicated content is ok if you're just getting started, but you'll need to add your own unique content if you want to maintain a presence in the search engines. Continue to add unique content on a regular basis and build incoming link & you'll be well on your way to getting traffic.

It's a must that you have to re-write yourself , whether you use PLR / whatever articles, you must re-write it too, maybe you can get this tools to inject freshness into your PLR article , try wordflood.com . Article spinner at this point is not so good in generating unique and readable articles (IMHO).
