Content Rewriter Information

Post by DaveTheAve »

I was wondering if anyone knew of a site that would offer some great help with helping me create an english content rewriter? It's insanly easy to program, but to find words to link together out of the millions would be a tad-bit hard.

Anyone know of a site that provides me with information I could use?

$englishSynonyms = array (
'car' => array('automoble'),
'masculine' => array('manly','manful','manlike'),
etc...
);

This technique is often used by black hat SEO, so I have to ask why you are automatically rewriting content.

lol; right you are. However, I'm not the one who will directly benefit from this project. It's manly going to be a php function for other scripts and a wordpress plugin.

However, I not longer need help; I found this site: http://www.mijnwoordenboek.nl/EN/synonyms and I've developed a site to scrape the site and save them in alphabeticly named text files.

Oh so you admit to rewriting other peoples content? :banghead:

I will not willingly participate in this. I would also advise you seek permission before scraping a site, otherwise you are risking violating their TOS and may land yourself in legal problems.

:lol:

I'm developing software that will rewrite the content given; their will be a disclaimer stating the fact that they must first have permission to modify the imputed data. I know this is a VERY sketchy area; however, their are no decent (in-terms of functionality) ones available and I feel like I can stand a chance in this market.

I was referring to scraping the synonym site to build your own database. But yes, the original authors work too would be copyright infringement.

However, your partly right. I will be using this tool myself. However, I have a small list of papers that I own PLR for.

Why would you want to rewrite articles like that? The only reason I can think of is black hat seo.

The copyright is the least of the concerns.

This is so wrong.

I agree but I'm more interested in the potential money that can be earned. I know that sounds bad and thoughts like these may get me banned from this forum and I really hate to risk that - I love you guys; however, I have A LOT of debt due to starting college and I need to pay it off. This market seems like a good one for a decent working tool.

We will not allow to discussion of legally/morally wrong topics. This thread is already close to being locked. No need to be worried about being banned though ;)

The only reason I had kept this alive to argue against it's merits.
