best auto tool for "unique content"

32 replies
Hi everyone,

I am searching for tools that would help me create content for my wordpress tshirt website. Apart from wanting to utilize affiliate banners, I really would like to have a tool that can help me come up with content.....something that would create an article and then I come in behind and edit it before actual posting. I figure this is in the middle of autoblogging and writing my own posts, and will help prevent deindexing.

I came across wp unique and and wp robot

Any thoughts on these? Are these the most relevant plugins I'm looking at or should I be looking at something else?

Thanks so much!
Mike

    I think WP Unique is what you would want. I believe this plugin actually changes some of the words into "code" to make them different so you would want to use this with PLR articles or, perhaps with an autoblogging plugin like WPRobot.

    The problem with WPRobot (and probably other plugins) is that they pull articles from article directories and you aren't supposed to change them, so you couldn't go in and rewrite them but I believe the way WPUnique works, the article would still look the same to the reader, but be different to the spiders.

      1. You arent supposed to rewrite articles from directories.

      2. I personally wouldnt use a plugin that was designed to fool the search engines.

      I know you arent advocating either of these...just trying to make sure the OP knows that both of these can lead to trouble and should be avoided. The first is completely illegal and the second will no doubt cause problems at some point or another.

      I'm not aware of any plugin that actually creates unique content, there are several that scrape the net for content based on keyword searches and some of them work well but get mixed reviews due to pulling unlreated or spammy looking content.

        Yes, thanks - I was trying to say that you should not rewrite them.

        And actually, I forgot that WPRobot has a feature that will make the content it pulls in "unique" I think it works by translating it to some other language and then back again. I never use it and I think it should not be used on rewriting articles from directories either.

        I'm on the fence myself about that WPUnique plugin mostly because i don't really think it is necessary to rewrite stuff, you just need to get better backlinks to it than the next guy if you want it to rank.

        I mix unique articles in with my autoblogs and never had one deindexed yet, not sure what the OP's experience is with that or why they are worried about it.

        My initial impression of Wp Robot was that this was possible.
        It doesn't create content, it pulls it in from various sources. Unless they have added something that I am unaware of. I don't know of anything that would create content like that where the content would actually be readable.

          I do the same thing and haven't had one lost either which is part of why I do it, not to mention I think it keeps the blog fresh and more appealing to the reader.

          I know there are several here on the WF that would say to scrap the automation all together and just write all unique content, I do agree that is a great way to do things...but it's not the ONLY way and it certainly isn't the only way to have success with blogging.

          I use the automation just to help speed things up that I would normally do manually. In the end, any plugin or system should be viewed as just a tool. How you use that tool will determine if and how much it can help you or not.

            It's not automatic but you can setup Google Alerts around your keywords. This will give you plenty of ideas with which to formulate your own content. Sort of like a continuous drip feed for keyword related ideas.

              This is exactly what I've been doing for ages and it works a treat!

              Another reply also mentions Instant Article Wizard, which I too have been using in beta form. It really is extremely good!

      According to who?

      It depends on the licensing terms of the article directory. I think you'd be surprised if you read the legal terms for some, non-EZA article directories.

        Oh, I guess I probably would because I just assumed all of them would have that would have that restriction.

          During the big Adsense boom, you could buy a number of programs that would create sites automatically. Just push the button, and the program would steal content from all over the net based on your keywords, mash it together into unintelligible gibberish, and create thousands of pages of "unique" content.

          I'd look for an example, but those sites are getting awfully hard to find in the SERPs.

          These days, you're more likely to find a WP plugin that steals content (oops, I mean 'scrapes' content) from whatever RSS feeds you feed it, run it through some kind of spinner, and fill your blog with thousands of posts worth of unintelligible garbage.

          There's a huge difference between "unique" content (passes some mechanical test like Copyscape) and "original" content.

          You're better off aggregating original content from a variety of sources than you are trying the scrape and spin tactics.

            Very true!

            Most of the time spinning the scraped content will lead you to unreadable crap that you don't want posted to your sites...not to mention the legal issues (depending on where the scraped content was obtained in the first place).

    Google's getting better and better at figuring this stuff out. To be safe, do it the hard way... write (or pay someone to write) unique content.

    Its sort of a contradiction in terms. Auto content and unique.

    You will get a lot more credit just writing short articles about the business you know than trying to automate.

    Do a few a week to get Google to start visiting you on a regular basis and you can reduce the rate over time.

    Thanks guys for the replies. I'm still in the hunt

    I agree with wanting to stay away from trying to fool search engines.

    I really thought I could use a plugin that creates content based on keywords and categories, and after, I edit it myself. (plugin gets me 80% of the way to producing a post, but then I spend a few minutes...rather than an hour....to complete the needed 20% to produce a post)

    My initial impression of Wp Robot was that this was possible.

    But now I'm not sure.

      There are things that will change content around so that it appears unique. That kind of thing has been around way back since people were selling markoving tools to build websites.

      I have used a lot of differetnthings to try and get unique pages online and what I have found is that I get the best results on my own sites from writing content and posting it there.

      I do use a couple of things to submit to other places for more backlinks but I have consistently gotten superior results by simply writing on my sites.

      If you're going spend time editing, why not use PLR articles?

    The best tool for unique content is a writer that can work for you or yourself. All the software and spinners I have found have flaws and I end up editing my content anyway. I would rather just take the time to put together my own unique content and in the long run it will pay off greatly.

    It will be best to use a professional writer to make those content unique.However I have tried different spinning software to make some of my contents unique.But I tell you what I did not find them too much useful.

      You could give Jonathon Legers Instant Article wizard a try.

      He has just released version 3 for beta testing and this means you can use it for free until he launches.

      IAW will go out and get research based on keywords you input and then allows you to generate articles and edit them

      He has added tons of new features already and it is integrated with the best spinner synonym database.

      I have version 2 which was good but this blows it out of the water in terms of allowing you to create unique articles in next to no time.

      Watch the video here (not aff link) and then sign up to get the beta.

        Thanks Pete and Jesus3 for the tips.

        Can someone tell me why these softwares are made for Windows computers? Why can't they just be made web-based or something universal like Adobe Air?

        Apple ppl like me want to play with these tools!

          Most programmers build for the masses and even though Macs are getting more popular they just arent as used as their windows based counterparts.

          Apparently there are some users running IAW on mac using Parallels or Fusion.

    You have typed up a perfect description of a Philippine Virtual Assistant. Except, Many of them can write better then you or me.

    It is unique content.

    No worries about deindexing.

    They plugin to your site quite easily.

    Then they can do the Social Bookmarking, Blog Commenting, Add Friends, Create Profiles, Create Web 2.0 Sites, and a myriad of other things.

    They are more expensive than a free plug-in but.......

    Some months back, I started auto content blogging where my blog-websites updates itself with fresh content everyday. Fresh content is quickly indexed in the search engines with the result of high traffic numbers and visitors to the blog.


    The best thing about this is the auto content is loved by Google & others who have their search engine bot visit the site several times a day.


    Now a days, auto content might be viewed as "duplicate" content but that is not the case where Google themselves use the same techniques. For instance, look at YouTube, that is full of duplicate content and is one of the highest ranking sites, above Google.

      Sorry to say but “Auto tool” and “Unique content” do not exactly sit right next too each other do they?

      You either want an automated content creator, or a provider of unique original content, you just cant have both.

      You would be far better writing original content or having it ghost written than trying to short cut the system.

          Your Best auto content creator is your brain PERIOD!

          You are espousing a contradiction at best. I am not familiar with how one would create UNIQUE - AUTOMATIC content. How does that work? (that was not a question).

          If you are looking for long term success my 2 cents worth says focus on quality content not even as just a matter of pride but longevity.
