Random Notes From Dazed and Confused
Posted 8th May 2010 at 11:57 AM by cosmoslad
I started using Big Mike's Article Bot program in an attempt to get articles out to a large group of sites without the time consuming, mind numbing adventure of joining each site. I have had mixed reaction to the software and need to play with it more to figure out if it really helps or just makes me feel good when I finally send an article off.
Pros:
1. Lots of sites. That's the key, isn't it?
2. Low cost. I paid $29.95.
3. PDF instructions. I am one of those people who do better with the written page (probably a generational thing).
Cons:
1. Long set up time for the accounts. Even though there is an auto fill feature it registered only a handful of sites, the rest had to be done one at a time.
2. No paste and copy feature, yo have to manually type in each article and resource box. While you do this only once for each mass submission, you can't just paste/copy an article you have on your computer or paste/copy the article you have written in Article Bot for use elsewhere. Real trouble if you hit the wrong key and your article disappears before you save or send.
3. No spell checker.
Bottom line so far for me: 2 out of a possible 4 chocolate chip cookies.
Like I said, I need to play with it some more.
Comments would be appreciated!
