Hi Friends,

A scraper site is a spam website that copies all of its content from other websites using web scraping. The purpose of creating such a site can be to collect advertising revenue or to manipulate search engine rankings by linking to other sites to improve their search engine ranking.

Thanks and Regards

There is a software that can scrape other website links, emails and content which then can be use to ranked up your main site, but this is called black hat seo for which you can be banned from Google sort of. Scraper site would be usually tier 2 site which would link to main site of a person who is using such tactics to rank up.

Correct me if I am wrong. :)

A scraper site is a website which pulls content from other sources and republishes it, typically without attribution. Such sites are maintained for a variety of reasons, and they are of great concern to many legitimate content producers on the Internet, because they pose a number of problems. Most scraper sites are maintained for the purpose of generating advertising revenue through advertisements linked with the site.
