I really don’t like article spinners. They are all pretty much junk in my opinion. Manually creating the code or syntax within most spinner software is a pain, it’s confusing, and hurts my brain. All are junk except for one. The Best Spinner. This is one of my favorite tools for writing content. It really does a fantastic job of creating unique articles out of pre-written content.
But I have to tell you … The Best Spinner just got better.
The Best Spinner now has a built in Article Directory!
In the latest software update (v1.79) from Jon Leger, he now includes a built-in article directory with The Best Spinner. One problem with it is that it’s brand new and there isn’t a lot of content uploaded. The good news for you is, if you get your articles uploaded, a whole lot of people will be seeing it and using it. And the deal is, you can use the articles and spin the articles all you want but the links MUST stay in tact. That means EVEN MORE unique content pointed back to your web site blog and more back links! Jon is a genius.
The articles in the directory are screened by hand by real people to ensure they are of excellent quality.
You can submit articles to the article directory right from within The Best Spinner or pull free articles into The Best Spinner to be spun and added to your site or blog.
So check it out. Upload your content and get some free back links going to your web sites. Or download free content to be spun and submit it to your own article dircectory or blog. Either way, The Best Spinner is the bestest!
I’ve been putting off writing this review to let some of the hype die down a bit. If your email box is anything like mine, last week it was lit up with everyone talking about TheBestSpinner from Jon Leger. Today I want to tell you guys my experience with this article spinning/writing tool and if it’s worth the annual $47/year recurring cost.
Created 40 articles in under an hour!
The first time I used TheBestSpinner, straight out of the zip file, I was able to take 2 articles in two separate niches and spin them both into 20 articles each. I did this in the space of about an hour for the whole thing. Each article was spun to about a 70% unique state which is fantastic.
The interface of TheBestSpinner is very easy to use. You simply paste in your article text, tell it to identify all synonyms, and from there you can begin the very easy process of creating the spinning syntax (a fancy word for code) that will alow you to generate all of your newly spun articles.
Personally I hate spinning, the syntax gets confusing, it hurts my brain, I just don’t like to do it!
Normally, creating by hand all of the nested “or” statements is really a pain in the butt to do, but TheBestSpinner does all of this for you. It does this on the fly. All of the needed spinning syntax is created for you, ready to be pasted into your favorite article submitting software.
The true power of TheBestSpinner however, lies in the back end database full of user contributed synonyms built from everyone else using the product. As users of TheBestSpinner add their own synonyms to the collective database, these alternative words and phrases are available for your to use in your articles. This allows you to create very unique articles super fast.
One of my favorite features of TheBestSpinner is the “Replace Everyone’s Favorites”. Using this feature, you can replace the words or phrases in your article using those in the collective database from everyone else who uses the tool with the push of a button. You can choose the quality level of the replacement, (good, better, best) but this also will effect how unique your spun articles will be – Best is less unique, Good is more unique.
So the big question is – “Is TheBestSpinner really the best spinner?”
The short answer is absolutely. TheBestSpinner is not the complete answer to article re-writing. It is still a good idea to paraphrase sentences or paragraphs to give your articles your own personal flair as well as uniqueness. I also don’t like the annual recurring cost of the product. You know that this time next year, anyone who still uses the product, will have an unknown bill come out of their paypal account because they forgot about the purchase. I’d like to see a monthly recurring cost model instead.
Overall, TheBestSpinner is a fantastic product that should definitely be in your bag of tricks for publishing good content to the web. At least worth a try at only $7 bucks. Just remember, if you stop using the prodcut, cancel your subscription or you’ll find yourself out the $77 annual fee next year.
Side Note – A Quick Take on Scribe.
Right now as I write this article I’m using another new plug-in called Scribe. It’s in beta and is brand spanking new. So far it looks really cool.
Scribe is an SEO optimizer for your blog, that plugs into Wordpress and analyzes your articles to ensure each one is search engine optimized for the keywords you are intending to target.
Lately, the folks at Scribe have been going through some technical issues with their internet provider which in turn is causing issues with people using the plugin. They are working through these issues and I will be writing another post on Scribe later. So far I like it a lot. But we shall see…
The SERPs are the true test. I’ll write more later
I first heard about the ReviewAZON Wordpress plugin almost a year ago. Mark Hansen from NicheStoreBuilder.com had reviewed it and raved about it. My first thought was “Do We Really Need Another Amazon Plugin?” I mean really? We have phpZon, Amazon Autoposter (now part of WPRobot), and more recently Affiliate Mage. All of which work great for pulling in Amazon product listings to your blog. Not to mention phpBay and phpOStock used for eBay, and OverStock.com listings respectively. So, to make sense of it all I simply had to write my own review of ReviewAZON.
So whats so great about ReviewAZON?
I recently had the pleasure of being on a Web Conference with Brian Johnson of Commission Ritual and Brad Hanson, the creator of ReviewAZON, to find out for myself what was so cool about ReviewAZON.
Right away I could see the amazing appeal of this plugin. The pages and posts it creates look very professional and just plain fantastic. ReviewAZON can pull every bit of detail that Amazon has on its site for the product and lay it out perfectly for anyone wanting to setup a review type of web site. The admin interface is laid out very logically and includes some nice features making it immediately stand out from the crowd.
There is a built in search functionality that allows you to quickly find product items for your niche and add them to your pages or posts directly from Amazon.com without having to leave the admin page.
There is a nice templating feature that give you full control over the layout of the product listing.
Built-in SEO that allows for cloaking of all links and images pulled from Amazon.com
Support for multiple languages and international Amazon sites like Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.de
There is also built-in integration for both phpBay and phpOstock plugins!
With ReviewAZON, you can create three different types of posts, a full post for the entire product, and an inline listing that embeds one product in to your existing post for a multi-inline listing embedding several products into your post.
Finally one of the best features in RreviewAZON is the bulk creation tool.
With the bulk creation tool you can search for products in your niche, hand pick the exact products for your reviews, each one creating a separate review post, then either post them all immediately or drip them out to your website for a more natural (google friendly) growth.
The Web Conference was a little long, going over some tips and strategies for using ReviewAZON to promote Amazon.com products. There were several methods shown to clearly make money with Amazon.com. Brad pointed out how you can use PPC to take advantage of trend based social events to put a site up quickly and get traffic there quickly without having to wait for your site to bubble up in the serps. Brian, on the other hand, explained how to use organic traffic easily to be able to do the same thing only without the cost of PPC. The difference is that organic traffic does take more time and that with PPC you can get your site in front of hungry buyers faster.
Toward the end of the call Brad did mention some new features that are going to be included in the next version (free for anyone who already owns the plugin). The biggest feature to note will be the addition of product comparisons. This new feature will let you compare all of the Amazon stores together for a given product giving your readers the best price available for that product! Pretty cool stuff.
Needless to say when the conference call was over I had to get ReviewAZON for myself. For only $79 its a great buy! Right now, thanks to Brian Johnson and Brad, if you purchase through my link you can get 35% off of the regular price of $79. Thats $27.65 off right now. To get your discount click here and then use this special discount code for ReviewAZON at check out : brianjohnson35.
After I downloaded my copy of ReviewAZON, I tested it and was able to setup a full website of Amazon.com product listing in just minutes. And they looked amazing. Right now what I’m doing is now going back and adding ReviewAZON to all of my sites.
If you are an Amazon.com affiliate or would like a great way to promote products on Amazon.com you really need to check out some of the videos that are out on Brads ReviewAZON site and see how cool it looks for yourself.
Again check out the videos and get the 35% discount. From what I understand it’s only for a limited time so if you are considering it you may want to take advantage as soon as you can.
Again, click here and enter the code brianjohnson35
If you do buy it, or if you already have it, let us know what you think of ReviewAZON. Like it? Love it? Hate It? Let us know I’d love to hear what you think of it and how your using it.
Hey guys and Happy New Year. It’s been a busy beginning of 2010 for me that’s for sure… and long while since I’ve posted here on my blog. I hope you’re doing good in your businesses and things are looking up for you!
In thie past several weeks I’ve been refocusing on affiliate marketing and looking at my webs ites to see what can be done to better target buying customers and improve conversions. Of course more traffic is always helpful, but if that traffic doesn’t convert you don’t make any money so then all of your work is wasted.
To help me refocus, I’ve been using a product released by my good friend Brian Johnson called Commission Ritual. He released Commission Ritual back in July (I think) and I’ve been wanting to check it out ever since the launch. Well I finally got around to it and man am I amazed! For $4.95 you just can’t beat the great material you get.
I first learned about Brian almost 2 years ago when I came across a video he had done where he talked about the success he was getting using an ebay affiliate software called Build A Niche Store (BANS).
A lot has changed since then, BANS is gone, but Brian is continuing time and time again to release really excellent material to help me (and a lot of other people) make money online.
The first product I ever purchased from Brian was SEO Press Formula. This was an awesome set of videos that walked you through setting up your Wordpress website and showed you how to get it complete optimized for search engines. I still use the information he taught in that product to this day! SEO Press Formula was well worth the investment.
This past July Brian released Commission Ritualand again he hits home with money making information for affiliate marketers. As I mentioned earlier the price for Commission Ritual is $4.95 which is amazingly cheap for the amount of material he gives you. Don’t be fooled though, there is a rebill of $92 bucks seven days later – but for the first week you get a chance to be enlightened to how you can turn your existing websites around using his method and start earning more commissions.
He also goes through how to set up groups of websites for maximum commission and income. He reviews how to find keyword rich domain names, how to target buying keywords, as well as includes lots of optimized themes for wordpress to get a jump start on bringing in organic traffic.
Commission Ritual is a full coarse on setting up and optimizing affiliate websites with wordpress using organic search engine traffic. This is turn is used to help you make money using either eBay, Amazon, Commission Junction or any other affiliate network you want to subscribe to.
The one draw back I would say to the program is that it is focused around Wordpress so if you build sites using straight html you may find yourself wanting a different product. The product is focused at the less technical folks too so if your an experienced marketer some of the material you may already know.
I have many many affiliate web sites and the material here has really helped boost my traffic by increasing my organic search ranking in the search engines.
Commission Ritual has a ton of video instruction for you to follow that leads you every step of the way. He also has a nice active user forum called the commission ritual inner circle membership with well over 1000 posts to help answer any questions you may have (and Brian is there and answers them himself).
Brian has really helped me and my business make money online and he can help you too. Check out Commission Ritual… for $4.95 (less than the price of a burger at Wendy’s) you can see for yourself and put some of his tips to use. I think you will be pleasantly surprised in the (search) results!
I was recently on a conference call with Brian Johnson and Brad Hansen from ReviewAzon which was really cool. Needless to say next week I will be doing a review of Brad’s ReviewAZON plugin for Wordpress and how I’m using it to build some awesome looking affiliate sites in just minutes!
