automated blogging

[martinsbca]

anyone uses any automated blogging submitting tool? I have few blogs and i want to automate the process so i don't have to log in each time.

I've experimented with a few, but found the content they automatically posted to be hit or miss. So, I don't use them.

But, as an alternative, you can change the date on your blog post before publishing it. By post-dating it, it will automatically post on the date you choose. So, load up 2 week's worth of content and have it delivered over time. Then you don't have to log in constantly to add new content.

Hope that helped,

I've used many. RSS2Blog is pretty good. Takes quite a bit of work to get set up and is a bit pricey if I remember correctly, but has a lot of options and lets you decide what content goes on your sites.

Unique Article Wizard Plugin for Wordpress is ok. I think the plugin is free, but don't know for sure. I find that they have articles on popular topics, but if your site's are tightly themed for a long tail niche, you don't get much content.

Caffeinated Content is another paid one which has better content, but I'm still not in love with it.

Articlebuilder.net requires a paid memebership I think, and it's a bit of manual work, but they will grab articles from article directories and let you export them formatted to post-date your posts in your blog where you just have to upload a file. It'll also export them in RSS2Blog ready format as well.

I haven't used most of these for a while so I don't have all the current info, but there's a few for you to work with

I have seen many of those automated blogs that pick up the content from other blogs, article sites or news sites for example. But do they actually make money these blogs. I can not imagine that you will get traffic with all that duplicate content.

And that is the main flaw in using automation, unless your content addresses a niche where the feed content is less likely to repeat over hundreds of pages!

Hmmm.... how come so many of the websites or services recommended on here, look like they are all owned by one and the same company? The design is identical on every one of them.

Many of those niche companies do often tend to be operated by the same companies.

To add -

YES, You can still make money even though it's duplicate content.

I run several automated blogs which have picked up PR and readers over the years. I know the duped content gets hits because i look at my logs. It gets just as many hits as my original content does.

Hope this helps,
