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?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0
