It isn’t going to help you any with SEO.

If the articles that you are receiving from these affiliate programs are also sent to other affiliates, then that would definitely be duplicate content.

Question? When you say duplicate content, since the 2012 football season began we have for the first time been writting our own content. I have to say it was not the best at all, but it was ours. That said, we have used a few articles that we recieved from a few affiliate programs when we did not have our own up and running. We get content sent to us on a weekley basis from several programs and we do use it at times. Is that the duplicate content you are referring too.

I’ve been hearing the words “SEO is dying” for the last 8 years from various SEO “celebrities” – the only thing that is dying are my brain cells reading the silly posts about it.

Like everything in the world, it evolves, and you have to move with the times.

I think the “SEO is Dead” thing came from people hit by penguin/panda, trying to find another way to get traffic

so that would be from webmasters who broke googles rules?

I think it would be fair to say that the old way to do SEO is dead, but SEO is far from dead. Like Arjun pointed out, SEO has just changed a lot. The old stuff definitely does not work anymore, especially in the area of link building.

But, now that I understand how the new Google works, I think these changes are completely fair. Truth be told, I wouldn’t change a thing about any of it. God bless Google and Matt Cutts lol ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />
