Hi,

I'll hit Rankwyz and provide an honest opinion of it. I chose it over FCS Networker because they had a sale on where I got this tool (and a limited number of posts) for $20/year. FCS is way more than that at $30 a month I think for the cheapest. So getting Rankwyz at 5% of the cost of FCS Networker definitely made up my mind.

Usage:

I'm using it to build out 100 Tier 1 Web 2.0 properties, and post content to them. The thing I really like about it is that for the most part once you set it up you can walk away. I've got articles on 3 month drips there. They generally work well. The only thing I really login for is to see if my Web 2.0 properties get banned which *occasionally* happens. I'm not sure if this is Rankwyz or the fact that the IP's change on login, or what.

The downsides... Rankwyz has a lot of capabilities. It's a decent learning curve trying to figure out how to use *everything*. I'm pretty sure I haven't even touched the surface of the capabilities of Rankwyz. I've only used my own articles, yet is has 6 different potential content sources I do believe. Syndication, social syndication and much more I don't remember. I haven't even touched PDF's or Social Bookmarks yet. Maybe I should. Takeaway from this: it does well managing a small network of web 2.0 sites and saves me countless hours. I've never tried it for anything over 100 web 2.0's. If you want to see a sample web 2.0 it manages PM me and I will send it to you.

As far as support goes this is not the best but they are working on it. What I mean by not the best is that I've waited a few days for replies. Call me demanding but I hate waiting for anything over 4 hours. Not sure if that is their fault or mine.

Other downsides... not the easiest to learn, sometimes confusing layout. I think they have a trial so if you can get by with that you should be golden.

Pros: If you're looking to get your feet wet with Web 2.0 networks without a huge cash outlay I unconditionally recommend Rankwyz. Their basic plan is $8. It comes with 9k posts a month. Quite honestly I doubt anyone starting will ever use anywhere near that. Do you have any idea how much content it takes to fill 9000 posts?

Sure there's downsides, but for the price it is the best tool out there IMHO.
