Purpose of websites with randomly generated content?

I'm assuming its a blackhat SEO trick to gather more clicks, but is that their only purpose? And why?

I've noticed various searches (usually specific topics that don't have many legitimate results) return sites that are filled with garbage, they're literally just randomly generated paragraphs in Wordpress. These sites don't seem to be used to propogate malware or for phishing, the domains are completely random and probably don't hold much value, they don't host any ads, and they don't have any linkbacks. And yet there are tons of them, so people are clearly spending money on them for some reason.

Anyone here know what they are being used for?

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
