Ask Shawn Collins: Content for Affiliates

March 1, 2007 by Shawn Collins

Q: I am a new affiliate and I want to add content to my blog. Are there any places to get free content?

Shawn CollinsA: One option you’ve got is to go to a site called EzineArticles.com. They’ve got a variety of articles on all sorts of different subjects.

You can reprint those articles provided that you adhere to their terms of service.

Also, you can syndicate people’s RSS feeds. When somebody has a blog, they typically make an RSS feed available that enables anybody to republish their content in whole or in part.

I would suggest taking a look at two sites to see what’s available for different subjects: Technorati and the Google Blog Search.

After you come up with some blogs you’d like to syndicate, there is a tool called CaRP that is a converter of RSS to HTML. This enables you to get the SEO benefits of having the actual content on your site and in your code.
