I hope Brad does not throw the baby out with the bath water. I can understand a site with no content being eliminated. BUT.... SE's don't care how 'pretty' a site is. Some of those default themed sites are that way on purpose, and the SEO that is hidden behind them might blow you away.

Brad,
Do you think you can add the feature I suggested on page 11 of this topic? The one where we can select of the many categories people to chose to publish the article, we can select which category/categories they will be published to?

John34

Ok Brad, let me wait for couple of days, also i will be adding more articles now.

Brad Callen

Hey, absolutely. I've already posted it to our "to do list". I'm not sure how long it will take to get to it though. We've got ALOT of feature requests in the works, but we'll do our best.

Thanks

Brad

Sleaklight

^ Thank you!

Frank Ayres

if we want catagories added do we do a support ticket?

dotcomdesigns

I did, but didn't hear anything yet. Probably 3 days ago but I guess they are very busy at the moment!

Brad Callen

Hey, you should definitely have gotten a response. If not, can you pm me the ticket number? I'm in there with my guys all day. During week days, the longest a ticket goes unanswered is about a day, at the very very most. Usually only takes a few hours, unless the ticket was submitted after business hours.

Also, yeah, support ticket is the way to go to request new categories. Thanks

Hi Brad,

Writing articles like crazy and so far have 89% acceptance rate so it's all good!

My question is that if we write articles that blogs are requesting do we just send to only those blogs in the interface or do we also submit in the usual way so that the person who has requested will receive but also so the article is 'out there' for all other blogs to accept as well?

Please clarify.

Appreciate your time and efforts.

I have been using SEO Link Vine for getting content for some of my sites. I have to say for the most part it is pretty good. But I will point out that some of the quality of these articles is pretty cheezy and you usually have to edit the article once its on your site as it seems to have issue with punctuation etc.

But all in all it is working pretty nicely. I also tried to sign up for submitting my own articles but it is closed.

chini

Yeah agree, most articles are crappy. But i guess if they are they won't get accepted. So the higher quality your article the more it will get accepted.

Brad Callen

Hey Marie, nice work :-)

You should only submit the article to the "on demand" person. That way the content is unique to them only.

Brad

Marie A

Well in that case I may as well just put it 'out there' to get more than three links or am I missing something?

BTW for all you out there moaning about this service please take note that I have so far had articles published 554 times as of this post.

It's all about relevant content and taking the proper care.

Only good articles will be accepted and I think I can achieve over 90%.

The huge problem I find is the spinning as it needs to be checked very very carefully.

On average each article from start to upload takes about 3 hours to do it right.

The difference in some of rankings so far is amazing!, and it's only just begun.

PS. You can send over my commission now Brad for the decent plug. lol

GeorgR.

darn i had to reject like 40%-50% today...all weird categories.

VegasGreg

I have just started (just over a week) and am at 100% acceptance on submitted articles. I use the Best Spinner and am very selective in my spinning process so it is like a human spinner. Only takes a good 10-15 minutes for me.

For incoming articles, I am 50/50 for accepting. Usually it is because of bad category selection, but only a few because of bad copy or a bad title.

The new format on the site today for receiving content is absolutely horrible. It doesn't show %rewritten and doesn't allow for a re-spin (if needed). Hopefully this is just a testing process or else my rejection rate will climb closer to 99%. Please go back to the previous version!

Brad Callen

Hi Greg, this new format was done for much easier/faster article approval. % rewritten should be added tomorrow, as should "re-spin" ability.

Brad

rayan

I like the new format! It is simply faster to approve and reject. I look forward in seeing the rewritten % =)

Sleaklight

I can't click the close button in the new format of get content side. Can you make the lightbox smaller so that the close button isn't out of my window? I have to hit back currently if I want to close the lightbox.

madzseo

I've been looking for that same feature. I thought I just missed it. It would really be great to have that function.

I submitted one spun article, it says on the stat that it's been published twice but how can I be sure that it's really been published. Ok..so I'm starting to sound a bit whiny here so I'm going to stop now But ditto on webdango's suggestion.

Also, since the blogs are owned by other people would it be possible that they'd just delete the posts when they get tired of being a member of SEOLV? (Probably answered in previous posts but I just can't seem to find the answer anywhere. )

[And to Kok Choon - wherever you are, I bought SEOLV from your link..you've been a great help. Thank you ]

Meadowview

I finally have my first article almost ready for posting and I am eager to pull the trigger. Since SEOLV doesn't seem to have a forum started yet, I wondered if I could get some feedback here since this thread has sort of evolved into a SEOLV users forum.

I am using the article to promote a new just recently indexed website. The article is 550 words +/- and spun with The Best Spinner (2 options for each sentence and lots of synonyms). SEOLV shows it as 100% rewritten and DupeFree shows approximately 35% duplicate content between spun versions of the article.

I have 3 links in the article with the same 6 anchor texts spun for each link. Each link goes to a different page of my site.

Any thoughts so far? Does this sound like I have done what I needed to do to maximize the benefits of posting the article in SEOLV?

I was thinking of setting the publish for 5 requests per day and unlimited max publishes. Is 5 requests a day too many for a new site? Also, I can't think of a reason to limit the times the article is published in total in my case. Am I missing something?

Finally, can anyone tell me how to convert spun text to a bold font? The bold command in the software does not seem to work on spun text. I submitted a support ticket this morning but have not heard back yet.

Thanks!

Bill

rayan

I face the same problem but what I did is that I press and hold 'CTRL' then hit '-' to zoom out (you may need to hit twice or more) the entire window so that I can see the close at the bottom.

Brad Callen

Just read this guys. Will be "fixed" tomorrow morning. You could just get a bigger monitor :-P Kidding.

Hey everybody,

I think it's great that Brad is here answering questions about his product, but this thread has kinda turned into a support forum... it's supposed to be for reviews of the product from people who have purchased it. Let's move the focus back in that direction.

Joseph Then

Some of us will close this thread if the rules are not adhere to.

This is a review forum, not a support or flaming thread.

For support, please go to:
Support Desk

Thanks for your attention.

Marie A

I agree and apologize if I was in any way a part of this as it was not my intention Joseph.

I was one of the first to sign up within minutes of the launch and have been 'flat out' on it ever since so here is a review:

The program has crashed 2 computers when in large screen a couple of times and needs to be addressed.

The time delay in switching from view to edit and back again is very slow and a royal pain.

It was very slow to submit at first but as the developer stated keep submitting and this will sort itself out.

Some people, as a result of this, felt that their money was being wasted the first few weeks so perhaps brad can note this.

As we have no direct contact with the blog owners and visa versa, better communication is needed via messages or request posting possibly.

Perhaps my top suggestion would be to have this program as a download type of software rather than working 'live'' all the time.

It would be far easier to work from an offline application and then to upload to server once all proof reading is done etc without having to change screens all the time.

There definitely needs to be a user type questions and answers document perhaps in the form of a PDF that is updated rather than the same questions and answers appearing again and again.

From reading users input it is clear that a lot of customers do not fully understand how to optimize their articles and correctly use the software.

Not everyone is a tech expert so this should be 'spoon fed' to please all clients concerned.

We do need an 'SP1' sooner rather than later but the launch was very recent. Perhaps Brad can advise when the first major update will happen.

Hope you like the review.

Marie

theleader

Brad, are you thinking of starting a WSO about SEOLinkVine here?

If yes, do PM me the link.

pearsonbrown

I think theleader has provided the straw that has broken this camel's back. Posting that so soon after two different mods have asked for REVIEWS only is unacceptable.

This product is not currently available for sale so I think we should close this thread down and then start a new one when the product is available again.
