Autoblogging – Can It Work?

Yep, again it’s been a while since I posted. I am being kept very busy with writing clients, so I’ve not had the time to 
work on a new post for this blog. That changed when I heard about autoblogging.
Autoblogging is basically setting up a blog, then setting up plugins or scripts which add content and posts, with no additional work from you, it’s all done automatically. This frees you up to market your blog, and get traffic, which hopefully will convert to income.
The autoblogging plugin I’m currently testing is an Amazon plugin. So, you install the plugin, choose your keywords and let it rip. Each day, or as frequently as you choose, the plugin will take a review of an Amazon product and post it to your blog. It has a link to the product on Amazon, and of course it uses your affiliate link. That’s how you make your dosh. If someone buys through that link, you get paid. Admittedly Amazon’s affiliate commission starts at only 4%, but with enough traffic, and enough blogs, and if it’s hands-off enough, it could work.
I had a domain name sitting there doing nothing, so I thought I’d give this a shot. I set up the blog, added a nice header, then set up the plugin. So far so good – I’m getting nice looking posts that discuss a product relating to my niche. I’ve also added adsense, and ebay affiliate products. I haven’t done much to get traffic to the site yet, but I can see that if I did get enough traffic, this setup would make some coin. It’s not totally hands free though. There’s no point in having a site if you don’t have vistors, and getting the visitors is where the work comes in. That’s okay though, it’s the same for any site. So, my thoughts are that this could work, but I will update as we go along. If this turns out to be profitable I’ll show you how to set up the plugin, and you can go for it yourself.
An update on the cat blog I listed for sale – nobody wanted it! That’s okay though – it’s now getting over 600 visits a month with very little effort, and is earning over $5 a month in adsense income. That may not sound like much, but it’s for the most part, hands off. My next step is to use a report I’ve written to build a mailing list of cat lovers. I’m going to offer my report as a free download in exchange for signing up for my cat newsletter. Sometimes when life gives you lemons, the lemonade you can make tastes even better!
