As a member of digitalpoint and other webmaster and seo websites I normally see blogs being advertised in the market. Specially on Buy, sell and trade section or in the marketplace of every webmaster or seo forum. I am also aware that there are  issues on directories being created today in terms on arguments and listing and how google search engine tends to have those directories out of their index. I am not generalizing directories there are still good ones that are worth submitting too.

Okay, back to the topic, why I have mentioned the directories? Because after falling out the possible directory business, some thinks a new way to have a new income generating scheme that can be used to gain without thinking relative to a long term basis. Does here comes blogging post network.

We all know blogs is a search engine friendly platform. Some people makes a sum of income out of blogging but with hard work or effort they have put up in making this blog qualitative.  Blog post sale comes, several networks are offering service to pay one blogger to put an article on their blog. Though, I am not against it, I am only concern on those blog network posting in bunch with the same article posted on different blogs or domain. Like selling blog post on 100 blogs on 10 different C-Class IP’s with different PR? Hope you are clever enough to know what I am saying. Wait, I also purchased one of those to test something out.

Now let us check the effect of network blog post at once.

1. Same blog post article can lead to a duplicate content being cut by google.

2. Instant back links in an hour or so. Triggering some signal like “hey I have got several links in just an hour! BAN me!”

3. Yes, this will increase your technorati for a short time and not for long term. Believe me, because I have experience it.

4.  Waste of money if those blog network posting don’t have an actual visitors coming in to that particular blog. We need visitors right?

5.  Most of those listed domain they say that have PR are coming from a drop domain they have purchased. Surely it will loose it, since most of the time inbound links will be gone in the wind.

6. Most of those blogs are not being promoted. So expect a dead blog.

7. Might affect as well blogs as in case on those directories being penalized. (ops, very weak statement, no proof)

8. The blog can end up on a link farm. And search engine might just harvest your site and pull out your site.

There are other reasons but it is up to you to use common sense if you are planning to purchase one.
