Over the past several months I have been working on a WP site generator/management tool to help me in creating tens or hundreds of good quality sites for each affiliate niche that I enter. But just as important, to be able to update and add content to each site from one backend as well. Here are the highlights of the tool so far, at the end I'll tell you why I am posting this.
- you can create multiple projects (to keep sites in each niche organized) and add unlimited # of sites to each project
- the tool will automatically upload as many sites as you create. All you need is the hosting info for each site. It will upload the WP files, create the database, install themes, upload posts or articles, create categories, upload and activate plugins and several other things all on autopilot. No need to login to the individual sites to do any of this.
- you can upload as many themes as you would like to the tool (and configure them in the tool as well) and assign categories to each. When uploading the sites it will randomly select a theme from a specified category, or you can select a specific one
- you can upload as many plugins to the tool as you would like (and configure them in the tool as well) and when it uploads the sites it will automatically activate the configured plugins. You can assign a set of plugins for a whole project or on an individual site basis
- You can create categories for each site or have them randomly created on the fly based on the keywords you enter for each project.
- you can upload individual articles to each site within the tool or have it randomly select articles from a zip file of spun or similar themed articles and put them in specified categories. You can also choose the % of sites to upload the articles to within a project so all sites don't have the same # of pages. You can also drip them out over a specified number of days. This can be done to existing sites as well as the new sites you create.
- I have integrated a silo linking seo strategy into the tool. You will be able to assign a site a level (1,2,3,4 etc...) with level 1 being the most important sites. The level 4 sites will automatically link to level 3 sites with the keywords you specify (it will just search the article for the keyword and insert the link) and link to a page or category that you tell it to. Level 3 will automatically link to level 2 and so on. You don't need to enter the url, the tool will already know what it is based on the keywords. You can also set this on complete auto if you are just wanting to put up a hundred sites or so and want to do it fast. The idea of this is to launder links from contextually related lower level sites that you will put a ton of xrumer and SB links to without hurting your better sites.
- you can update any theme, plugin or WP version from the generator tool and it will automatically update all applicable sites.
there are quite a few other features, but those are some of the main ones.
On the first test it was taking about one minute per site. On the fully auto settings it took about ten minutes to go from ten domains having nothing on them (not even a WP install) to custom looking wordpress sites all with content, links, categories, plugins and different themes on them.
There are two reasons I am posting this.
1. I have used a lot of WP management tools and none of them had everything I was looking for. For those of you who have created a lot of WP sites what are some of the things on your wishlist for a tool/site generator like this? If I integrate your idea into the software I will give you access to use it for free. I am still not sure if this will ever be offered for public use, although I am now leaning towards that. I started building it for my own business.
2. I would like to get a couple of people that are very experienced with building lots of WP sites for affiliate purposes or autoblogs or whatever and let you use it for a while to give me some feedback and work out any bugs you find.
We are still working out several things we found during the first round of testing and should have it ready for testing again in about a week or so. If, and only if, #2 describes you and you would like to test it in exchange for free access please let me know.
