A few of you guys expressed that you would be interested in unethical ways of building traffic or making money online so I figured I’d post a few here and there. Now, please advise that I do not encourage these methods so please use at your own risk.
I’m sure most of us own multiple websites and blogs so it takes quite sometime to write a blog post for every single blog. What if I told you that you could get free content for your blogs and it would only take about 30 seconds of your time?
Sounds pretty good, right?
First of all, I just want to reiterate that you should use this at your own risk. Also, I would suggest if you do use this method, you probably shouldn’t use it on your main blog. For instance, if you had a celebrity gossip blog or something and you just need to plug in some content and pictures, then you could use this method.
Well, I would use Google Translators to get your free content.
So, how does Google Translators help me? And how is this unethical?
As you guys know, Google Translator translate your text to different languages. What you will simply do is copy someone elses’ content and paste it to get translated.
Now, the key is to find the right patterns of translations to make the content come up unique (or somewhat unique). You guys can feel free to play around with it but the pattern below should work fine:
Translate from English to Spanish to German to Russian back to English and you should have your free content.
I’m sure a lot of you guys in the MMO niche would love this method because a majority steal their content from other MMO blogs anyways and just rewrite it as their own. Now you can save time doing so!
Here’s an example. I just translated the first paragraph of this post.
Original:
“A few of you guys expressed that you would be interested in unethical ways of building traffic or making money online so I figured I’d post a few here and there. Now, please advise that I do not encourage these methods so please use at your own risk.”
Translated:
“Some of them expressed that they are interested in unethical ways to create traffic or on-line money, so I was patterned that some here and there. Now, please report that I do not encourage these methods for use at your own risk.”
As you can see, there are some broken translations in which you would have to simply replace a couple of words, add one here and there or simply just delete a few words and it’ll flow nicely.
A couple things to keep in mind:
- Sometimes the translations end up having a few broken words or phrases when you translate back into English so you want to always just reread your content and add a word or two to make everything flow correctly.
- This method is not always 100% accurate so make sure you always double check the content. And for you guys who are nervous if this would pass Copyscape, well, it does about 90% of the times. So, there is still a chance it won’t so like I said, make sure you reread and make those minor adjustments and you should be fine.
- Use at your own risk.
For those who are thinking of taking it a step further and having someone create a bot for you so it’s really automated, I heard it’s a bitch to do so because Google picks up on automated stuff like that. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still doable but it’s the risk you’re willing to take.
Now, this was not my original idea but I have used this method a few times and it does actually work. Though, I did take this idea and used it to help me with somewhat unethical SEO methods. But I guess I will have to cover that on a later post.
So, if you haven’t already done so, subscribe to my RSS Feeds so you don’t miss out on these upcoming posts!
I guess if you are desperate for content it could work.
My view on most MMO blogs is they are full of crap - they all almost sound the same, and I rarely see a new or original idea on them. What I wonder is, does anyone ever pay money to them and do they really MMO?

I looked at this in the past, but the time it takes to read and edit the content is sometimes as long or longer to make it readable.
Great tip thanxalot
i found that you have to try different languages in order to get the content more readble
english-sweedish-german-english works well

I have seen on other pages where they have small flags of the Country and it translates the whole page to their language.
Now you got me going again. Darn you!! LOL

So you translate it from one language…to another language…then BACK into your language and then post?
Are you kidding? Is it April 1st already?
Here’s another idea….just rewrite it and save the trouble. Call me crazy.
Bills last blog post..Ugly Sites Make No Money
There’s a guy on the Rich Jerk message forum that does this automated (he made a program) and charges $7 for 50 re-spun articles/content.
Yes
I’ve seen a post on google translator somewhere before but I don’t think it explained as well as you have described here.
I never personally tried this because it looked like a lot of work to do just to get free content. Maybe its worth a try

Dilson Decanos last blog post..Adsense For Feeds Is Now Live
LOL this was exactly what happen to me when someone stole my contents word from words and published it in his Spanish blog. I came to know about it when someone was kind enough to inform me here
http://www.pitonizza.net/2008/08/copy-and-past-and-translate-mal-blogger.html
It was only later that I realised the guy actually used online translator to reproduce it on his blog and it was the grammar errors and broken words that blew the cover up.
The worst part of the story was that he continued doing it as if nobody cared anything about it.

Translating text seems a bit extreme, it would seem to be easier to think of legitimate things to write about, instead of trying to think of ways to get free content.
If you use the above method to creat content of your blog. You are creating more junk in the information sea of internet.
I like to see how they work. think you
