So each page that I will be creating is a 100% copy of the news article..

Is this a good way of adding content or will I be punished by google for that?

This is an illegal way of adding content. Making "100% copies" of any copyrighted material and posting it on your website is a bad thing. Google will probably punish you for duplicate content but I would be more worried about what the people who actually created the content might have to say when they notice that you are taking their articles and posting them on your site.

My second question I use an e-commerce software to generate my website, but I noticed when i do site:MySiteAddress I only get one result and that is the root is that bad?

How many other pages are there? It could be that your e-commerce system is creating pages that are not crawlable.

This is an illegal way of adding content. Making "100% copies" of any copyrighted material and posting it on your website is a bad thing.

And it's OK for Google to do that because...

A better question is why you WANT 400 pages for 5-8 products? And irrelevant content, to boot. (Unless they are news articles related to the products?)

How is adding news that people can read anywhere, and have probably already seen helping to sell your products?

axgrindr,
Well, as jtara said, I have around 8 products, so how on earth I will have 400 pages?i want to add more pages to the site, so sometimes I create more categories and items to it even the same item is listed in another category, example, you sell shirt, you sell it under men shirt and you sell it under size 5-8(just an example)....

But I want to add content to my site and make it around 200 pages, how on earth im going to do that/?

I can add news, but adding news, you can not change the news can you, you have to put it the way they are including the source,,,

Do you have any other idea as to best way to add content...

pleeker :- For the site:-www.mydomain.com command, I contact the company and they asked me to try my mydomain.com without the www and I got about 129 pages but if I put the wwww I get 1(the main page only) is that bad?

jtara:- the content is not irrelevant, it will be on the products that Im selling...

You will be in the fairly unique position of having your users be able to easily find your products once they get to your site.

I still do not understand why you think you need 200 or 400 pages.

Did somebody tell you that was a good idea?

So I thought if I add news about the products im selling that would be good idea...

do you still think its a bad idea? or at least add more pages, well the pages will be all under one sub-menu called news, if they click there they will see links to many pages with news ...

If you want news for your site then get it from the news organizations themselves ie: All Healine News(AHN), Associated Press (AP), United Press Int'l (UPI) or from aggregators that license it Moreover etc...

I started from yesterday by collection information about the products im selling them, and put summery for each news I see, not a full copy at all, just my own writing for that article.

Should I be better of if I create one page for each day or keep adding to the same page and have new one every week?

Im writing about 40 lines per page just to give you an idea... Also when should I expect a better ranking when I add more content, I read that adding new links to ur site might take months before it can be noticed by search engines....

For an e-commerce site, I would do this ONLY if it is truly helpful to your users, and then only if you are willing to risk a search engine penalty.

Yes, I said penalty. I think the advice you have received may be misguided.

What search engines "like" is relevance and links from other sites - other sites that are respected.

The former you can acheive by providng good, on-topic information about your products. The latter takes time and effort and won't happen over night.

If you are adding news simply to up your page count, that is a good reason for search engines to penalize your efforts.

Basically, this is "padding". Your high school writing teacher could detect it in a second. Google is smarter than your high school writing teacher. You're just stuffing your site with text, hoping it will make it look more important.

You might want to look in on different forum here - Search Engine Optimization. Do keep in mind the SEO techniques (and myths) change from year to year and probably week to week. What works now (or what people THINK works now) probably won't work tomorrow. Of course, this is ideal, if you are in the SEO business.

I think it's just better to make sure your site is on-topic, well-written and relevant. The SEO will sort itself out.

SEO and all that stuff aside, think about your customer. If I go to an online store, I want to be able to find what I am looking for without hassle, but I often end up browsing the site. If I see several listings and pages to go to, just to find they are just the same product over and over with nothing new to add, it would anger and annoy me. I'll click through because I hate to miss something good, but if I've been 'tricked' into wading through copies of the same pages over and over, I may just decide not to buy.

Much better to stick with the products you have in a clear, easy to navigate way, and make the most of those pages, rather than adding more pages for no reason. Just the opinion of a shopper!
