Quick question for the masses. So if I've created 25 articles for my site, how many of those should I have spun via the AMA 3x3 rule? I read someone suggest 3 in the past but I'd like to hear what others are saying.

Thanks!

Hey Myron,

As for me, I do not spin the articles on my site. I rewrite a completely different article before I get it spun, but it's just me.

As for the number. The more, the better.

Is there a risk of running into a duplicate content issue with Google?

There is always risk for anything. The question is "how much?" In my experience, and Google hasn't told me anything :-), I don't think it's high.

First, a little clarification about duplicate content. Duplicate content is when you have the same article on your OWN site.

When you have the same articles on various sites (not yours), it is NOT duplicate content. Saying that, when you have the same article on a lot of sites, Google will take some of these articles and show them in the SERPS. As for most of them, they won't show, and the backlinks will not count.

This is the reason why we are spinning articles. We want Google to take all our articles (and backlinks) in consideration, not just a couple of them.

I hope that makes sense.

And if you want to spin the articles on your site directly, you can do it too.
