Will get good traffic from Google if I pull content via RSS feeds?
Now-a-days, There are many plugins available in Wordpress to perform Auto Post / blogging. I know it grabs content from RSS feeds and posts it to our blog. Some of the Premium plugin will grabs full content from other sites and post it to our blog.
But, I do not know how the Google search engine treats such blogs (copied content.)
Will it give good traffic to such blogs?
Will it give copyright related issues?
Any suggestions and ideas for the above points?
No. You will not get good rankings. This is duplicate content which is what exactly what Google doesn't want. Don't expect good rankings. In fact, don't be surprised if your entire site is penalized for being very low quality content. Basically, this is a waste of time.
Syndicated content, strictly speaking, won't hurt you. Google will attempt to find the best match for a search and that URL will get preference in the rankings so you may not get the results you want. And there are ways to syndicate properly.
I have no idea if these unnamed plugins are in any way compliant with those syndication guidelines. Even if they do syndication right the originating source will get the rank, not your site, which makes me suspect that they don't do syndication right.
However, as several people have already said, Google does not like to see an excessive volume of duplicated content and that sounds like exactly what you are thinking about doing. Cheap, easy content gets you nothing at best and gets you penalized an worst.
Google penalize massive amounts of duplicate content.
Publishing headlines from various RSS-feeds in a sidebar will not hurt you. However, if significant parts of your site is made up of content pulled from RSS (or scraped from another sites), Google will lower your PageRank, making you not appear on the SERP.
Publishing an RSS stream means that there is implicit permission for others to syndicate the content, but you're still obliged to acknowledge the source of such content. If you acknowledge the source, you should have no problems with copyright when using content from a RSS-stream.
Google massively penalizes such sites. In addition to this, you can run into copyright issues. Since Google slaps a duplicate content penalty, the original author of copied content HAVE to prevent their content from appearing elsewhere.
If the issue about seo, google-search, automation, google is resolved, there’s a good chance that your content will get indexed and you’ll start to show up in Google search results. This means a greater chance to drive organic search traffic to your site.
