Article writing vs spin software

Hey guys! I was just wondering what your experience with spinning software is. As far as I know spinning software is pretty easy to detect by Google and if you use it your site will get sandboxed right away. I am an organic SEO adept and this is why I only use handmade articles, but one has to admit that spinning software is a big time saver and I recently had a discussion with a group of experienced SEO experts (or so they claimed) who said they had been using spinning software with great success and Google never picked up on them. Could this be true?

Most of the time, when an article is spun, you get the option to add your own keywords, adjust a few other settings and the software does the rest for you, unless of course you want to try doing it yourself. I guess it depends on how you do it, the software used etc. But in the long run, I still think its wrong, regardless. Most times these "gurus" would use someone else's articles and create "their own" out of that. Its still plagiarism, regardless of how big the spin percentage is.

I tend to agree with you and I had a 2 hour long argument with them on the issue, but they were very convinced of what they were saying and said that I'm missing out on a big opportunity, so I thought I'd ask. By the way, what are your thoughts on link wheels and pyramids?

Its just the easy way out for these guys. Take one article and spin it into as many articles as they need, and then upload, its quick, convenient for them, and they don't seem too bothered by the outcome until they're hit by panda, and then you see an influx of "why is my site dropping" threads on forums.

I have said it many times, that google wants natural results. link wheels and pyramids are a huge business because its fast and effective (until caught) (lol see the trend?) Where Google allows certain amounts and techniques of link building, pyramids, wheels and even magnets are not one of them. Many will argue though, as its "how you use it and not that you use it." So for me, I would never use them, others might have other opinions, but they can be dangerous and might be better avoided altogether.

To me, spinning articles is just a cheap way for some SEO experts or so called experts to make a buck. They don't have the brains to write original quality content so they take the cheap way out and spin there content.

The regular webmasters who actually review each article before they approve it on there article directory, blog, forum...etc usually reads the whole article and will know if it was spun easliy.

Some spinners say they have the best spinning software that will make it look like the article was never spun. I say that's a bunch of B.S.

You don't see the big famous guru's and author's on the top SEO blogs spinning there blog posts now do you? Those top guru's are the folks we lookup to for the latest SEO news. I could go on and on about how upset i get when i hear people spinning content. I would never want to hire that person or the company they work for. Original content is what the search engines want and also the average person wants to read a article and not get confused because it makes no sense after it's spun.


I caught a few people spinning content when posting on this forum. They must be getting advice from the wrong people because they won't get no where taking the cheap way out.

I have talked to somebody who made niche websites and he said article spinners have helped him. However, he always edits them, just to be sure. So, I guess article spinners catalyzes your work, but it doesn't do the whole work for you. You still need to edit the results.

handmade article is good rather than spin article by some tools. This may increase quantity of links but increase quality of link.

I haven't tried spinning of article and I wouldn't try it because of the damages it can cause to our website. I still go for the natural way- writing my own article and submits it to article directories. And the results are very worth it.

I like natural useful content and that's what I provide in my articles. I don't take shortcuts. If I'd hate an article, my visitors would do the same. I am here to provide a good service to my members/visitors, not try to trick them.

Spinning an article can be scary. I have tried it an I am not all to comfortable with it. I am much more comfortable with distributing my article with a spun intro and closing paragraph. I tried to make them longer. To me it's the best of both worlds. IMO Good luck

Spinning articles is like many other "things" that have passed away over the years....
There was a time when anything was acceptable by the SEs....
and the net got filled with junk and trash..
Sites that ranked high and provided not much value to anyone....


There are undoubtedly many more ideas that will come along that will make the whole SEO thing easier......
Some will stay....others will go....

The secret is to evolve with the net......and survive....IMO...)

From my point of view spinning articles might change the original articles but search engine crawlers are now able to catch the spun article and make it spam.. So don't spin article. Write a unique article which will give a positive impact on your site.

I don't use any article spinning software as most of the articles produced by this tool are low-quality. I still prefer writing different articles. Though it takes time to research and write articles, I find it worth it.

It's always best to hand write your article first, use this for your content on your website obviously and submit it to high quality article directories which have high standards such as ezine. You can then spin your article and submit it to, wiki sites, web 2.0s and less known article directories for distribution.

I don't believe in spinning article. You need to give the best information towards the visitors, not just spun the things which are already in the content.
The unique and rich insight only fetches the good amount of visitors and that you can do from yourself only.
I never use any software for spinning any article.

I have never used a spinner but whether its more damaging than advantageous depends on what you are using it for. If say, you are using it to spin your own articles I think it would be useful for whatever purpose you may have for it. Just thought about it because I was paid before by an artist to make two re-writes for each article she wrote.

Some of spinner tools like TBS which should be pay is so flexible that you can choose the synonyms you like.The articles after spin can be read by user. And the rate of similar is up to 60%.Google will not pick up on them.

Throw the software away as it is mostly junk. Use a human spinner which does require the author to write every single word. You can use a human spinner and get very high quality spun articles, something software can not do without a great deal of work.

Your articles need to be of high quality and no software spinner on the market can do that. Replacing words here and there is not creating quality, it just creates many articles that all read the exact same way.

If you are not sure what a human spinner is contact me and I will show and explain what it is.
