@oldsalt. wow you have THAT much feedback and you haven't even used it yet?? LOL

I appreciate it very much.

Yes the boggers.net site is one of the first that I used the plugin on. back in March I set up MOST of the redirects before we even built out the keyword-matching-article system. So those older posts did NOT have related articles pulled. It was all random. As you can see, even the non-related articles are ranking. It works. Now it matches articles for the keywords. So not it works even better.

Adsense Safe: Let's be honest here...any way you slice it, this plugin puts SPUN content on your site. That is against the Adsense quality guidelines. Will G do anything to your account? I really don't think so. But you need to weigh that risk with you do ANYthing black or grey-hat to a site that produces money. From what I have heard from several Adsense users, Google will issue a warning if they detect low-quality content on a site..they won't just BAN the account like they would if you were caught in a click scheme or something of that nature.

Features to: modify the default 301 location, set custom category, and MANY other things are all in the works. We are still developing and testing...and this plugin will get better and better as we continue to test and develop it.

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, so just a few questions here.

1) Do you have tutorials or videos uploaded for new users?
2) When the plugin creates new spun posts which has the permalink ../blue-widgets/ and I want to add a unique article on top of the spun post, the permalink becomes /blue-widgets2/

Does it matter in terms of on-site SEO? I hope you understand where I'm getting here.

3) Should I create a new category to store all the redirects or is it fine to put them under "uncategorized"?

Thanks.

To be honest, I'd not be promoting the matching article aspect as, in my experience (so far) the matching is not even remotely accurate. For example, I had a search term come in for banking and it posted a world of warcraft article. What it basically does is just pick a random article and spin and post it. Until you add a LOT more articles, I highly doubt it'll actually pick related ones. Perhaps you should post the niches you have articles for? It might be good to be able to let people choose the niche of their blog so only articles from that category are selected so while they not be exact matches, at least they'd be semi-related so WoW articles won't be posted on a finance blog. Alternatively, allowing people to upload a selection of articles that are pre-spun might be nice and the software could just choose from the personal selection. Then I could upload 200 spun articles in my niche and it'd use those.

Along with the above, I'd like an option to NOT have them post-dated once the category option is implemented. The post-dating thing makes it not work with my other plugins. But again, that's just a wish-list thing.

thinking of using it on an old site of mine... used to be an auto-blog but stopped it awhile back. Still has many pages indexed but very little traffic since it's pretty much all duplicated. Since it's in the broad health niche, when it does produce clicks, they are VERY nice cpc...

It's worth a roll of the dice... I'll prob pick it up later this afternoon.

Thanks for the honest reply

*edit* @Mandom, honestly - the lack of accurate article may just come down to low intelligence of the program to determine what the main words in the keywords are. If the program can't accurately determine the main keyword(s) in a phrase, it's going to be lost 98% of the time. If you have a long tail keyword of 'blue wooden tv tables' - they might have 50 articles on tv tables and even 25 on wooden tv tables - but unless they happen to have at least one with 'blue wooden tv tables' exact match, depending on the search algo, it may not find anything at all to match it to. Something for the devs to look further into...

Quick question once the posts are indexed etc do we just delete them ?

 

[schwagoo]

No, after the default period of 3 days, the posts get 301 redirected to another page that you specify. So they naturally fall out of G's index some time after the 301 redirect occurs. If you delete the posts, the 301 redirect will turn in to a 404 pageload failure and you would lose the link juice

Yeah, I know. Which is why using that as a selling point is, IMO, not a good thing. It's just not accurate enough. It's still a good product but choosing a related article isn't what makes it good - which is why it'd be nice to be able to choose a category for the blog and only get articles from that category or to be able to upload your own articles.

A question re the 301 redirect, does it have to be a page on the same site or can it be to any url?

 

[schwagoo]

ANY URL!

In fact I have a test going right now where we set up a fresh domain, and imported about 800 keywords. That was two days ago and the site already has over 700 pages indexed.

All of them are redirecting after 3 days to inside pages of the client's money site (different domain). Client is hitting it with some Xrumer and Scrapebox links.

He should be seeing some big rank increases soon.

OK guys I heard your requests and took action.

After reading your suggestions today I called my coder back to my office and we have a plan to add a killer new feature.

We are building an option to use your own articles. You can upload your custom articles in spintax format by uploading a ZIP file for each domain.

Here is why this is awesome:
It's White-Hat. You can upload all hand-spun super quality content if you want. You directly control the content posted on your site.

oh btw we also tweaked the algorithm a bit so your articles should be closer to on-topic.

The new stuff should be tested and ready by monday or Tuesday next week.

Does it auto spin or do we have to manually spin?

 

[schwagoo]

All articles are auto-spun. All you need to do is install the plugin.

Want to know if unsubscribed, will the deleted contents still be redirected?

 

[OldSalt]

Want to know if unsubscribed, will the deleted contents still be redirected?

That's a good question and one I'd like to know as well. If unsubscribed and the plugin is uninstalled, the existing posts should still 301 redirect as they were previously... the site just wouldn't create new posts. If this isn't the case, this would be a non-starter for me. (I didn't get a chance to pick it up yesterday afternoon... it's been a busy week).

*Edit* If it does, I will be getting it later today or at the very latest over the weekend. I don't have class tonight after work so I won't be as busy... lol

 

[schwagoo]

yes yes yes I think I covered that in an earlier reply. But if the service is discontinued, all of the posts will redirect as scheduled. That all happens on your hosting account. The only thing the subscription does is provide NEW content.

So if a person cancels the subscription, everything works but they won't receive any new posts or content.

How many word each article contains?

 

[schwagoo]

Random... Between 350-1200 words. But most are around 700

One of the sites I'm competing with is using a similar method where his indexed pages are archives. The results show up like this:

Is there a way to make the results show up like that or similar to that when using this plugin instead of a short excerpt for an article that might not be related to my targeted keywords?

good price. considering buying. is this good for panda?

 

[schwagoo]

Yes Sir! We have customers ranking sites with this every day.

Keyword Explosion is:

Panda-Safe and Penguin Approved! hahah

good price. considering buying. is this good for panda?

 

[schwagoo]

Yes. But our article database won't do that. I would really not even recommend setting it up like that, as that is duplicate content...even if just a little bit..

but we are releasing an update next week that will allow you to use all of your own articles. You could just set it up with all the spintax articles you want and paste that at the top of each. No problem!
