Help! I need an OBJECTIVE review of Auto Blog Samurai

Has Nick responded to any of this?

I'd be surprised if the Market Samurai guys didn't kick off about the name. They have a great brand, and I for one initially thought this was something to do with them.

By the way, any autoblogging product that uses 'translation' in an attempt to make it's scraped content unique... good luck with that. Or as English to French, French back to English would say:-

I' ; D is astonished if the types samurais didn' market; T give a kick to far about the name. They have a famous brand, and I for has at the thought beginning that c' was something to make with them. D' elsewhere, very produced autoblogging which employs ' ; translation' ; so d' to try to make it' ; S.A. éraflé… the single good luck satisfies with that. Or like English-French, French again with l' English would say: -

translated at babelfish.

Hey guys and gals, the ABSamurai product is great with videos, pdf manual.

Yet Carty's ABS which is identical (because Ponna's is relicensed and rebranded)
is the original. Different perks from different marketers.

Ponna pushes the free Blogger angle a little more. Carty the paid Wordpress (w hosting), because of control.

Carty did address on this forum a few days ago about all this. And his customer
service is superb!.

The better deal between identical software products (my opinion) is Carty's.

Hope this helps...

Yes Nick is the best at service.........hands down involved and on top of any problems.

Auto Blog Samurai - 3in1 Niche Blog Creation Software Suite! Customer support is Rubbish

I Bought it During first 30mins of Webinar With Mark Link & Paul 3days ago now.

Software will not work for me, Need's "Activation Keys"
I Also Bought the backlink Upsell, Which I do not Have access to?

AND, Im on to my 6th Email to Customer Support right NOW!

After my 6th Email, I finally just got a Response.

--------------------------------------------

Gee'z I Emailed 6time's as there was never any sign of response, living or Automated.

I'm confused. If Carty gives away a free ver and also still gives updates, what is the incentive to buy?

How much he/she paid for this re-branded version ? lol
I think Carty's software is great and after sales support is good too...if you a warrior forum member, why not go with Carty's Auto Blogging software ?

I just got an answer from the first email support msg i sent. Time: 4 days.
It was signed by Jessica

I downloaded the free version of Carty's software ans I thank for that.

The only observation is that the download includes only a program installer and no instructions. I guess that there are instructions for the paid version.

5 upsells huh? Nah, I'll pass. Carty's stuff is excellent - i tried the original ABS from the WR. I don't know too much about Auto Blog Samurai(other than it tried to upsell 5 times when exiting) but if you got it off Adam's list(who's been known to promote crappy products to his list), I'd stay away from it and unsubscribe.

Carty's is much better(based on ABS V1) and he's around to ask questions if you need help here or on his forum.

OK this was completely out of my monthly budget for IMO's, but I've just bought Auto Blog Samurai just to compare if its the very same as Carty's ABS, the price is not much and I bought 1 of the upsells too (an RSS submitter rebranded).

Auto Blog Samurai has the posibility to especify if you are going to use wordpress or blogger wich is cool.

You can fetch content from 4 different sources:

- RSS feeds
- Articles extracted from ezine articles
- Clickbank hop ads
- Amazon integration
- PRL articles

Some of the features that this autoblog samurai has, are:

- translation feature - you translate the feeds, articles, amazon description, PLR content to spin them on google or bing and make them "unique" the way you do on google (from english- to whatever- to english) with the obvious grammar issues that this carry, but you can fix this with the text editor built in - where you can add images, and youtube videos, links and such (I don't remember if Carty's software has this feature).

- Articles, clickbank hop links and amazon products are keyword related (you put a keyword and the software use that keyword to fetch the content.

- You can schedule the interval of each post and bulk publish (set and forget)

- There is a FTP option to upload images to a server and then publish them on the blogger blogs (this is actually pretty cool)

The tutorials are really easy to follow and the bonus material is a nice adition. The RSS submitter is pretty much like every other submitter out there but it get the job done.

So far I've tested the software basically creating four Blogger blogs (in a little more than one hour) and they are preloaded with content to drip for over six months. I'm just waiting to see if they are not banned from Blogger.

Today I'm going to test it on wordpress blogs (although I don't think I would move an inch away from WP Robot I simply love that software!).

For the price you have a decent autoblog system and as I bought through Ponna`s link I have a ton of PLR softwares to use as bonus myself.

I said this before, but now I don't see it. All of my email support requests have been answered except 2, but just sent those yesterday and today. As part of the first months
premium member Stuff, they sent me a keyword software that really looks good and some traffic videos.

i think it is an excellent tool if you don't have a lot of those features in other bots and such. i like that it is laid out in a very noob friendly way (which anyone can appreciate a simple and intuitive gui) while providing advanced features.

I bought this software and it works really well I had posted to a couple of my blogs withing 10 minutes of purchase (you gotta wade through all the upsell's) The product does exactly what they say it will. I was disapointed in the fact taht they make this out to be somthing that they built, but its just a rebrand of the Webmagnets software. In my initial testing I found that when trying to add multiple forms of content (like 2 amazon feeds for diffent keywords) the software locked up. So you have to manually change it within that feed. I was also a bit disapointed in the number of modules this can post to. It has the following module
1 rss feed
2 amazon
3 ezines
4 Clickbank
5. PLR but you have to have the PLR already(cant go search for it)
There is no ebay "module" which is a must. So if you want to use EPN you have to go and use an RSS tool to do it(a hassle)

The software is fairly limited in what you can do as far as customization. When you click on preferences you get this hokey msg saying "All settings are pre built with this version-Enjoy" well there not setup in a way that I like and would prefer to be able to customize depending on the "blog" more then I would like. I would also prefer to be able to pick the order of the posts and mix and match between the different "modules" example would be to alternate from amazon, to rss, or clickbank or whatever but this software wont let you do that either.

The software does have a preview panel for the article where you can edit the article which is nice but it doesn't let you customize the title. And this can cause errors with the "& and," Wordpress error showing up like that in the actual post. The other thing i was disappointed with in the editor is where you add media. It will let you add a video but it requires you to have the URL, which means I have to leave the software to go get it (a pain in the but) a simple search would be fantastic.

Over all I give this software a B+ it is much better then to try to do this yourself. There are more combursome products out there but for the money its a great deal(A+ for value) I paid $67 during the Mark Ling webinar, the original product is like a $100 and WP robot is a lot more by the time you get the modules. I would say if your just starting out this is a winner go get it. If your more advanced and already making money with your blogs you should probably look elsewhere.

How is this compared to WP-o-matic?

WP-O-Matic or no other competing product would grab full feeds as my software does. Most webmaster publish barely 2 lines of their original articles. But my software will visit the article' webpage and grab the ENTIRE content for you.

The titles can ofcourse be edited! Simply click on the title and start typing.

Customization: It is available with every feed you choose! While you're adding a new feed, check out the advanced settings tab where you can see a lot of options like Post Templating and sorts.

Regards,
Carty..

Even though I have already bght the software I attended another webinar for it. He said(I guess I missed it last time)that software updates were free for life. If that's the case, it's a keeper for me.

They explained the $37 monthly premium membership was for coaching and other products such as keyword tool. But ABS software updates were free.

This is all very interesting, BUT - Has anyone made any money with this package??

Ca, that's what he said on last night's webinar. I am having some problems and their support is slooow. And sometimes no help. I am getting it to post rss feeds ok, but can't get it to post Amazon and CB products.

Did anybody else here buy this software? If so, are you having same problems with posting Amazon & CB products?

Today Blogger shut me down three blogs for Spamming... guess the way to autoblog is using self hosted wordpress blogs...

Neodarth, at least the Amazon worked for you. I can't get the software to post Amazon or CB products. any tips?

I was talking about the automatic part. You click Amazon, put in keyword, go to tags, select autotags, click finish. Then rightclick on Amazon and add feed. Then it's supposed to put up products for you to select or reject. That's what I was talkin about.
Sounds like you're doing it manually. I don't think we need software to do it manually.

I can't get it post ANYTHING except Rss feeds. I haven't got a clue what problem is and i'm afraid support will be clueless too. Their first response was to send me a link to faqs which was no help, now I wait 3-5 days for what wil probably be another useless answer.

Oh I had one more thought. On this product that really annoys me. In the Clickbank and amazon modules they conveniently put there Clickbank & Amazon affiliate Id's in the field. So you need to update it every time you add a new "feed" to yours Id unless you don't mind giving your commissions to them. I'm a big believer in the "your id" goes here kinda thing. Im sure they suck off a few dollars this way but is it really necessary?

I didn't like it at all.

I sat through the "Webinar" and thought it all made sense, but when I got the software I found it didn't work the way it was presented. First of all, the tell you that you can use it with Blogger but Blogger won't allow you to post images (something you don't realize until you're trying to do so). Adding images separately (by some method described) just seemed like a ton of extra work.

I thew up some Amazon listings on a self-hosted WordPress blog I already owned. I was a bit disappointed by the quality of the returns for my keyword (may have been the niche, not sure). Some were relevant but many were not so I had a bit of weeding to do.

I could not get the Ezine or Clickbank stuff to work - AT ALL. I tried setting the Ezine (article database) setting to just ONE article and after more than 20 minutes I still didn't have a download. It slowed other functions on my computer significantly while running. After trying to shut the program down it seemed as though it was still running in the background.

I uninstalled it and requested a refund from ClickBank. Got my credit today.

Update: After 5 days an Amazon Product showed up. Next day another.
Still no sign of CB or Ezine Articles.

Tigerwar, No I bought Autoblog Samurai. I didn't realize it was a branded ver of Carty's until after I bought.

I just added 5 CB products by using the Hoprss but that's done outside the software.

Thanks, Tiger, but I think I might get the refund and forget the whole thing. A site just gets overwhelmed when you're getting rss feed, articles, products. Everything just gets too crowded.

Now the software keeps posting Amazon products but stopped posting rss feeds. Very erratic. Michgil, same email I received when I told them Keyword Samurai did not work.

after reading this thread your saying nick carty ABS and auto blog samurai are different? I bought samurai and I can't get it to work right. I emailed surpport and one week later their answer was "are you using auto blog samurai?" My reply was "what do you think" when I think of support it is 3days or less NOT a week. I don't like paying $37 for non-support! I emailed them again and they send a link to a forum that did not answer my questions. Does nick have good support? I'm new and I need help! whats your thoughts?
dave

Putting your keywords in the blog title is a very good idea, it gets your niche into the URL, and that is VERY important for seo purposes.

Newbeedave, I can't get it to work right either. I will get a refund and try Nick's. If that doesn't work right, then I give up on the concept and go with what i've been doing.

Actually the $37 a month is for extras. Keyword Samurai is one of the extras. Unfortunately. it doesn't work either.

I find the translations to be jibberish. Completely useless. That is the weak point of this or any other auto blogging software attempting to make the content sound original. Yes, it can be rewritten but it would take hours of work to make this sound decent!

Isn't that the reason we are looking at an automated program in the first place, to avoid all this work?

I will be getting a refund from Clickbank!

This is the quality of the translated content.

In my opinion quite poor. I suspected as much. In one of the videos, the translation of some content could be seen and It didn't look right in the video. I think Paul conveniently brushed over just how bad the translation done by the software really is!

Warriors
My question for you is. should I get a refund and go and try carty's version? Yes or No!

Oh...just one more thing

Many people try TOO hard to get these auto/sat. blogs set up TOO perfectly and waste TONS of time doing it. Simutaneously they also lose interest in continuing the tedious work. Last but not least..they produce nothing -0 - zilch - and end up with a PAID software that gathers dust.
These blogs, once you've done two or three, should take a maximum of about 20-30 minutes to set up, so you set up one per day and don't get overwelmed with monotony. That's 365 Blogs per year!
Quite honestly..I always use this software but never the translator. In addition to carty's software, I also use WPUnique, WPplrunique and WPArticlePoster.

Using different methods avoids leaving footprints having created your link wheel.

Only an estimated 40% of 1.5 Billion Internet users worldwide, use the English language and approx 25% are native English, the rest use translators to communicate in english!

What that means, is that if a French, dutch, german or whatever person does a search and finds a perfectly written English blog, he will use the standard translator in order to read it and we know what happens then..right?

regards
Tigerwar

Great break down Tigerwar.....

This was mentioned before, but no one answered. Is any one making any money with either software? After all that's what you are trying to do or are you?

Not to change the subject of the thread but I'm having a problem with Autoblog Samurai.
I schedule my posts for every 8 to 12 hours and add the feeds, check the boxes on the feeds I want to post and then click post to blog and 1 post uploads onto the blog.
Then even after a week of waiting, no other posts get added. I'm not getting any auto-feed of posts. Any tips on how to fix this?
I keep getting the same response from customer support and have followed all their instructions and still only 1 post every gets posted.

Frank, I had the same problem. I finally gave up and got a refund.

tigerwar,

I should have rephrase this. I mean is it a good tool to help your sites get higher up the serps and assist in more sales of whatever it is your selling and or to help with Adsense sites. As I have been thinking of using it for my blogs.

Tom

Well Bryan and Tigerwar you both convince me. I am going to go with ABC at the first of the month.

Thanks

Tom

NICK CARTY IS THIS A RIP OFF?
I never thought I could run into this kind of situation-knowing from my mutual respect-like relationship with people-but with Nick Cater--I draw the line--
He may be popular here on this forum but as a newbie--I feel he lacks relationship building skills--
I was within the one month guarantee and found out that the s-ware was not doing what i wanted for my business It could no get good stuff for my niche--I removed it from my system-bought something else that could work-I asked for refund He refused a even though he promised in an email to me -Then he came on with a legal jargon--
I went to research him on internet- and found Im not the only one he does this to-Reproduced below-(His private infoedited out)

On 10/18/10 I purchased "Auto Blogging Software" for $97 and "Auto [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Blogging [COLOR=blue ! important]Software[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] - Site Flipper License" for $197 (TOTAL $294), from Nick Carty of Carty Studios from India, and I paid through Paypal. I foolishly trusted his convincing "100% Money-back Guarantee". WARNING: DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!

The support is horrible to non-existant... I'm dumping it. I had a problem, reported it and 4 days later got an email telling me to download and install rel 2.0 and it would work. I don't believe they ever tested it because it requires deleting the original, then during installation I was informed that the zip file was corrupt. 6 emails and I'm still waiting for something to use...

I know this is an old thread, but it's about the software I'm curious about, so I'll give it a shot.

Does Autoblog Samurai work with the new Google Panda update? And is it still as good as it used to be, or is it even better?

I haven't tried it yet because I have always thought that autoblogging is just waste of time.


Thanks!

What are the features of AB Samurai? What are its features anyway?
