Auto Blogging Software Review

I’ve always been pretty solid in my stance about creating quality, unique content on my blogs. It’s something that I take great pride in. I will maintain that standard on this blog. It will always have my own content, or very carefully edited content if I use anyone else’s content.

I’ve recently purchased and began testing the Auto Blogging Software by Nick Carty.  As you can see by the banners and links on this site, I’m quite impressed.  As anyone who knows me can attest, I don’t endorse just any ol’ product.

Auto Blogging Review

This software has a purpose.  If you consider yourself to be an “authority” blogger in your chosen niche, and your business is publishing high quality content on a site where you have developed a strong relationship with your readers who have high expectations of your work, this software is not for you.

If you are an entrepreneur who seeks out multiple niches that target a variety of consumer needs, and your research to has assured that you have found profitable market with plenty of traffic and limited competition, and you want to quickly rank in the search engines to take advantage of the traffic, then this software just might be something that you ought to consider.

In the short few days that I’ve owned the software, I have already ranked on the search engines for very decent keyword phrases without doing anything but blasting 2-3 articles per day to the blog.  The articles come from other blogs or from article directories and are keyword rich for SEO.  That’s all I’ve done and I’ve gone from unknown to page one in about 2 days.

This isn’t without some effort, though.  I make it a point to “clean” the articles up a little, as the content spinning method that the software uses is not perfect (no spinning is perfect).  Also, it takes a fair amount of time to set up the blog with appropriate plugins and to post adsense or other ads that you use to monetize your site.

My problem is generally just getting the content on the blog, and this software does that for you.  It works with both WordPress and with Blogger, whichever you prefer.

Watch the quick video below while a Blogger blog is set up in 3 minutes and content added with the software.  It really is as quick and easy as the video portrays.

Finding a Great Market Niche

The beginning of starting a new business requires that you plan properly.  That includes market research.  Don’t even think about jumping into a new business without doing the proper research.

I’ve created a short video presentation to show how to go about brainstorming and finding good market niches.

I should preface the video by adding that you don’t need to select a niche that includes a topic that you are an expert in.  It’s not that difficult to learn enough about the topic to appear knowledgeable and as an authority on the topic.  There are some quick and easy techniques to accomplish that.

You should, however, select a niche that you have some previous knowledge in, are interested in, or have a desire to learn more about it.  From my experience, it’s much easier to focus on a topic of interest, and to spend the time necessary to become an authority on the topic.

With that said, go ahead and watch the video, now.

Recommended Premium Tools for Affiliate Marketing

There are a few tools that I recommend for the serious affiliate marketing entrepreneur.  You can build and grow a business without ever using these tools, but I’ve found them to be time savers and very valuable to me.  I have them saved on my desktop so I can access them with regularity.

p.s.  I earn an affiliate commission if you purchase them through my link, but I recommend them because they are great products and I use them all the time.

MicroNicheFinder – If you are looking for good keywords to target in your article marketing efforts, MicroNicheFinder is a great program.  Everything that this program does can be done for free using Google’s keyword tool and search engine, however, MicroNicheFinder is many, many times faster.  I can accomplish in a few minutes what takes me hours without using the software.

Another cool feature of MicroNicheFinder is that it tells you if the keyword is available as a domain name.  If you are setting up multiple keyword targeted websites, this is a huge time saver.

TheBestSpinner – I’m a strong advocate of unique, quality content.  Spinning articles seems to go against my philosophy, but there is a time and place for spun articles if done right.  TheBestSpinner has features that allow you to spin articles in a very customized manner so the result doesn’t appear as spun content.

    Useful Marketing Tools That Are Absolutely Free

    I take advantage of all the free tools and resources that I can find – as long as they are useful.  There are so many free programs that work very similar to premium software that we are all familiar with and many are using.

    Free Downloadable Programs

    Here is a list of programs that have been invaluable to me (in no particular order).  These are tools that I have saved on my desktop for quick and easy access.

    KompoZer – An HTML editor that uses WYSIWYG.  It used to be Nvu – many know it by that name.  I’m sure that DreamWeaver and FrontPage are much more robust, but KompoZer is everything that I’ve ever needed for my purposes.

    FileZilla – This program has been unfailing for me.  I have no reason to try any other programs.

    OpenOffice – A great substitute for Microsoft’s office suite.  It’s a very robust suite of programs that will do most everything that MS Office does.  In fact, it even opens MS programs.  The OpenOffice wordprocessor is a great tool for creating ebooks, as it allows you to save your document as a pdf.

    7-Zip – My choice for unzipping .zip files.  It’s free, it’s reliable, and it’s simple to use.

    Gimp – Occasionally I find the need to use a photo editing program.  Gimp has been my first choice.  I doubt that Gimp does everything that Photoshop does, but it has all the functionality that I’ve ever needed.

    Jing – This is a great little program but limited program for creating video screen recordings.  When I say limited, I mean that your video can’t be more than 5 minutes in length, and you can’t upload it to places like YouTube, unless you pay for the premium version.  I’m using the free version for many of the videos that are embedded on this blog.

    Build a List of Buyers

    It doesn’t make any difference what type of internet business you are want to build. For any of them, the right buyers list makes all the difference. Do you want to sell the products that you’ve selected? You will need a targeted buyers list that is already interested in your niche market and is fully prepared to buy the products in that niche at your recommendation.

    Are you planning to get involved in affiliate marketing? The best way to succeed is to create a buyers list that will respond to your promotional emails at a whim.

    There is a right way and there is wrong way to build a high quality, hyper-responsive buyers list. There are some rules to follow when building your autoresponder list.  The first rule is to recognize that more is not necessarily better. Finding more buyers takes time and money. If those buyers have no interest in what you are selling and if they aren’t ready to pull out their checkbooks on your recommendations, then that big ol’ list you’ve built won’t do you a whole lot of good. You spend a lot of time and money to put it together, but your return is minimal at best.

    It’s true when many marketing gurus tell us the money is in the list. Many of them believe that bigger really is better. But it isn’t. Make a note of how much time it could take to create one of those mega-lists vs. compiling a smaller list of high quality, hyper-responsive buyers. It might even take about the same amount of time to create your list, right? However, the return on your big list may only run about 1%, while your high quality list might convert at 10% or more.

    There are lots of places to get information about building a big list.  It’s not always easy to find someone who can teach you the correct way to build a high quality list. You must find a marketing expert who has learned through experience and can teach you how to build a high quality buyers list that will increase your income. That’s the type of program that’s explained in this free report.

        Should You Use Article Spinning.

        After posting about article spinning, yesterday, I came across some seemingly opposite opinions.  Check out this very clean, clear, and well written article about article spinning that I found on EzineArticles.

        ————————————————————————-

        Article Spinning – 5 Reasons You Shouldn’t Do It

        By Henrik V Blunck Platinum Quality Author

        I want to present five reasons why you should never use the strategy of article spinning. Some people have claimed this is a shortcut to getting more content online, but you will end up with worthless content in all your spun articles, and why would you ever confuse potential customers with poor content?

        There is no shortcut to successful writing. You should never listen to any expert who claims otherwise. He is trying to confuse you to sell some idea that may seem smart, but can ultimately destroy the good reputation you have worked years to build.

        • You end up with duplicate content
        • Synonyms don’t always have the exact same meaning
        • Your points made with one set of words will appear odd with other words
        • When spotted your credibility goes down the drain
        • If you know your subject it’s quicker to write new quality content than try to find a shortcut

        Let’s go through these one by one so you know why you should never commit the unpardonable sin of article spinning if you are a real expert author.

        You End Up With Duplicate Content

        The idea that you can just change a few words and have a new article is false. Your content is still the same, and the few words end up as only 2-3% unique which is far too low to ever be considered new.

        If your child did this in school, and was caught, you would have a hard time claiming this was anything but theft of online content. You need to face that fact, and accept that the idea of article spinning is false.

        Synonyms Don’t Always Have the Exact Same Meaning

        When you replace words with synonyms you get a new meaning of your articles, and subsequently it would be illegible to your potential clients. Just imagine a potential buyer of articles in your niche that finds content that looks like it was some kind of PLR rewritten content. He or she won’t even try to research whether this is duplicate content but will, most likely, move on to another writer that writes sensible content. Again, article spinning would be the losing strategy.

        Your Points Made With One Set of Words Will Appear Odd With Other Words

        Furthermore, when a valid point has been made with one set of words, replacing some of these with synonyms could change the entire meaning, and when logic is lost in new meanings that would appear strange compared with the normal language employed in your niche, your articles would again lose when read by people who know your niche.

        When Spotted Your Credibility is Flushed Down the Drain

        Once you are spotted your credibility is flushed down the drain. You stand no chance to make a good second impression. Once people see poor content, they will be turned off. Your content may rank well on the short term, but when people don’t like your content, you’re at the losing end with your article spinning strategy.

        If You Know Your Subject It’s Quicker to Write New Quality Content Anyway

        Let’s face the facts. When you know your subject, it’s very quick to write good quality articles. Once you know how to type on your keyboard, words will flow freely once you get the creative inspiration to write in your niche. Trying to replace a few words will actually take longer – and be much less effective when compared with writing a deeper article on a different aspect in your niche.

        In Conclusion

        In all five areas, article spinning is the losing strategy. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. They are trying to make a quick income, but you are going to lose money by employing such a strategy.

        ——————————————————

        As it turns out, I agree with many of the author’s arguments in this article. That is not to say that I fully agree with everything that he is presenting. You see, I’m pretty sure that this author has never used The BestSpinner by Jonathan Leger. If he had, his article may have been a little more objective about the topic of article spinning.

        Let’s go through the main points of the article.

        You end up with duplicate content. He goes on to say that the content from a spinner is only 2-3% unique.  That’s very possible with some spinners.  I’d be very opposed to article spinning if that were the best results possible.

        Using The BestSpinner, I’ve taken 300 word articles and within 2 minutes I’ve spun it into dozens of articles that are 40-50% unique.

        Synonyms don’t always have the exact same meaning. That is so very true.  If you use a spinner like The BestSpinner, you can select the exact synonyms you wish.  It’s not simply a random selection by the spinner.  You don’t have to use the synonyms that aren’t absolutely perfect.

        I’ve found that I can put my completely unique articles through a spinner and improve the article by allowing the spinner to help me select words that make the article even more meaningful.

        Your points made with one set of words will appear odd with other words.

        This is actually the same argument as the previous point, so I won’t dive into it further.

        When Spotted Your Credibility is Flushed Down the Drain. That is a true statement and your credibility is very important in the internet marketing business.  It’s important that if you are going to spin articles, that you use a spinner that is as versatile and powerful as The BestSpinner so that you can create highly unique and clean article content.

        If you know your subject it’s quicker to write new quality content anyway. That may be true for some, but for anyone like me, the paragraphs just don’t flow through my fingers like that.  It is so much easier for me to find meaningful content and improve on it.  With The BestSpinner, I can create a great article much quicker than I can write an article myself.  My knowledge of the topic helps me to spin more creatively and effectively.

        Take a good look at The BestSpinner and see what you can do with it.
