What???
A nice price would be a onetime fee of less then $100 and a monthly fee of $10,- I think you can sell a lot that way.
Nobody is gonna pay 80% of senukex montly. I seriously wonder how many people pay $149/month for that software when you can download a working crack for free or for a small fee.
Goddamn linkwheelbandit is $55/month, are they trying to starve me to death.
Dennis123, whoa there cowboy! Hold your horses! The one thing you need to realize is that neither SEN or LWB set their price points to please everyone. They set their price points to allow their businesses to grow and produce a profit while doing so. A cheaper price and they would most likely end up in the online tools graveyard. That graveyard is filled with promising products that ran out of funding because the developers were hell bent on being the lowest priced as opposed to the properly priced.
For example, SEOlinksmaster.com just recently bit the dust. That application essentially purported to do what the OP is attempting to do. Apparently, SEOLM fail into the Internet Marketing graveyard because the developer lacked a careful well thought out plan concerning the market, his competition and what it would take to build AND THEN maintain such a tool on a CONSTANT basis.
thanks for the posts guys. I was hoping to have the software finished by now but I had a lot of issues with bots accessing https sites. Hopefully I will be ready to start beta testing late Jan Thanks
Jbarrett, as much as I admire your tenacity, you need to face the facts. First and foremost, not everyone sees SEN as costing an arm and and leg. They see it as an investment they are willing to make because they are getting a high ROI. SEN is the standard for this type of software. If you cannot match or meet and then beat their standard, you are going to have a hard row to tow. Many have tried but few have met the challenge.
Based on your latest comment concerning the issues, you are learning the hard brutal truth, which is - there is a cataclysmic cat and mouse game going on and it will take lots of time, money, energy, constant reverse engineering and considerable effort if your software is to get and maintain the stamp of approval from the Internet Marketing pros. You also need to grasp this critical point; you are competing against the likes of...
SENuke
LinkWheel Bandit
SEO Link Robot
ZennoPoster
IMacros
Ubot
And a few others.
The people who can afford such a product are going to judge your product by the aforementioned products. If what you are offering is not up to snuff, be prepared to be hammered; its nothing personal, its just the nature of the beast.
I said all of that to say this, the technological side of doing this is surely more than possible. But you also MUST also address other critical issues such as: Short Term Market Penetration, Long Term Market Penetration, Subscriber Sustainability, Proper Price Points, On Point Tech Support, On Demand Programming/Coding, etc.
And one last thing, you need to comprehend
how competitive forces shape your strategy before you even think about launching, if you want to succeed and be on the same level as some of the other esteemed products.
Happy New Years!!!!
