  Old  Content for my blog

Im not sure if this is the right forum but I couldnt find a better one, if its in the wrong place can somebody move it

I've just started one blog type website and I've got a few more ideas for other ones, now here's my problem. I'm not sure if I'll have enough time to write content for each website, what other methods are there?

I've heard of a few methods such as:
- scraping, what's this?
- syndicating, wouldn't this mean I'll get penalised for duplicate content. And isn't it just nicking somebody elses work?
- Outsourcing, where can I find people to outsource to? How much does it cost?

Hopefully somebody will be able to give me a quick idiots guide to all this

Scraping will not bring you any good. Same about syndicating.
Outsourcing is one of the options if you can't write the content yourself. You can try to find writers on many freelance sites or at the problogger.net job board

If you want unique content then it is best to hire your own copywriter - you can get custom articles from about $5 each if you find the right writer - Try looking at www.elance.com for a copywriter.

If you want free content then the best place to start is the big article directories - have a look at http://ezinearticles.com/
