			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the uninitiated, an article spinner is a program that generates slightly different versions of your article. You might have the sentence:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The big dog bit my brother&#8217;s arm, and it bled a lot.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>To prepare the article for a spinner, you&#8217;d give it some word choice options as below:</p>
<blockquote><p>The {big|huge|large} dog {bit|savaged} my brother&#8217;s arm, and it bled {a lot|copiously|all over the place}.</p></blockquote>
<p>The spinner will then generate sentences like the following:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The big dog savaged my brother&#8217;s arm, and it bled copiously.<br />
The huge dog bit my brother&#8217;s arm, and it bled all over the place.<br />
The large dog savaged my brother&#8217;s arm, and it bled a lot.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8230; and so on. In this fashion you can use a spinner to generate content that is very similar but not quite identical to your original article, and then post them on various websites.</p>
<p>Why bother?</p>
<p>Because if you post identical articles in the hopes of nailing down an SEO advantage or of getting tons of linkbacks to your site, you are doomed to failure. Say you write a brilliant article and post it on ten websites. When Google sweeps the web for content, it will index the first copy of your article that it encounters. The next time it comes across one of your articles, it will NOT index that article (eek!) because it considers the article &#8220;duplicate content.&#8221;</p>
<p>On the other hand, if you use a spinner and post your article variants on ten different sites, every one of them will get indexed.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d used spinners once or twice but never really considered using them regularly until I came across a FREE spinning service. Being a naturally frugal person (read: cheapskate), I immediately took a renewed interest in article spinning and signed up. If the word &#8220;free&#8221; also makes your ears perk up, you can <a href="http://www.spontent.com/spinner/main.html" target="_blank">sign up with Jetspinner here</a>.</p>

Reducing Your Website&#8217;s Bandwidth Usage
It just goes to show that success really does kill. Best to make some preparations in advance just in case that new article you just posted goes viral and the entire Internet beats a path to your door&#8230;
