USING FREE ARTICLES
If you talk a bit about the article and then box the article with a link to their site "unedited" and you still place the keywords in the right spots on the page and use profitable keywords can you STILL rank using their content or will google frown on this?
It really depends on your authority and trust levels
If you have original content that rank very well — and then occasionally use free articles that 1,000s of other sites have already used — then you can have a chance of ranking well even for those articles
But if you don’t have any original content and Google sees that your content is merely rehashed content (or 90% similar to 1000s other websites), then you can’t expect to get a lot of web traffic to this approach
My site produces mostly original articles, though we accept (or used to actively accept author submissions). Since we rank well in our niche, I find our pages where we published these authors’ submissions to get better rankings in the search engines for other websites or even the authors’ own websites
Have something unique and original, then add a little of these free articles. But 100% free articles, that will get you nowhere
