I have been reading threads in forums a lot nowadays and I came across the word splogs. I was totally blur as what it means. I know blog - which is what I do right now. And I know paid blogging in which I do also. But I'm totally in the dark when it comes to splogs. So I checked out my online dictionary, wikipedia to know what it means.Splogs is actually a combination form of spam blogs.
According to wikipedia, Spam blogs, sometimes referred to by the neologism splogs, are artificially created weblog sites which the author uses to promote affiliated websites or to increase the search engine rankings of associated sites. The purpose of a splog can be to increase the PageRank or backlink portfolio of affiliate websites, to artificially inflate paid ad impressions from visitors, and/or use the blog as a link outlet to get new sites indexed. Spam blogs are usually a type of scraper site, where content is often either inauthentic text or merely stolen (see blog scraping) from other websites. These blogs usually contain a high number of links to sites associated with the splog creator which are often disreputable or otherwise useless websites.
There you go. I am glad to know that my blog is not spam blog. Phew.
it's me,
