Definition: Auto-Generated Content

« Back to Glossary Index

Auto-generated content” refers to content that is created automatically by a computer program or algorithm, rather than by a human writer. This content is often used to fill websites with large amounts of content quickly and inexpensively. Auto-generated content can take many forms, including product descriptions, articles, and even entire websites. The quality of auto-generated content is often low, as it is generated by algorithms that lack the creativity and understanding of human writers. This can result in content that is grammatically incorrect, irrelevant, or even misleading. Search engines typically do not favor auto-generated content and may penalize websites that use it, as it provides little value to users. It is generally recommended to use high-quality, original, human-written content to ensure the best possible user experience and search engine visibility.
