Content into Wordpress

Discussion in 'Content Management' started by muffet, Mar 21, 2011.

    I want to start a news blog in Wordpress covering a specific niche, how do I get the content from other news websites to feed into my Wordpress site to populate it with content? Is there a plugin that will implement this?

    WP robot will get the job done. What you are aiming for is an autoblog I believe?

    As others have already suggested, there are plugins to help implement this. However, you have to be careful. It's content scraping, and that's against Google's Webmaster TOS. Make sure your blog hosts a heck of lot more original content than scraped material.

    or make your scraped content original, obviously.

    btw, I'd be interested to see a link to the place where google says content scraping is against their TOS.

    wp-o-matic is the best plugin to get content from another website feed.

    Wp Robot is the best software, however, if you only want to scrape "feeds" then wp-o-matic is enough because it is free.

    But if you want a software that can spin a bit, mixing the content from youtube, etc, then wprobot is the best so far.

    By scraping content from other blogs you are diluting the 'unique content' factor and you really need to have a lot of your own content, not just copying from other sources. Google does not like duplicate content and it will affect your rankings. Chow chow, Kevin
