Is Anyone Using Article Builder?

We purchased ArticleBuilder because we love & depend on Jonathan's TBS (like thousands of other marketers,) and because the sales page made it sound easy, accurately original, and comprehensive in its present/future inclusion of PLR topics.

Jonathan's snippet software lives up to the first 2 of those promises: It couldn't be easier and the articles it produces are often much more readable & serviceable than old PLR articles fed through his Best Spinner. However, the article topic choices fall far short of the wide variety promised, and many marketers looking for consumer product articles and articles beyond the usual health problem/weight problem/make-money-online will be sorely disappointed.

We wrote to the affiliate from whom we purchased Article Builder, who went to bat for us by writing a ticket to Article Builder support, questioning the thin selection of article topics. Someone at Article Builder wrote back a couple hours later and said this:

"We won't be covering every topic (impossible to do properly), but we will be adding content according to member demand. However, the *type* of content we'll be adding will be in the "evergreen" niches, so product related content probably isn't going to be added any time soon, if ever.

Your customer is entitled to a refund within 30 days, of course."

There's nothing in the sales page copy that pre-warns a prospective buyer that product-related content isn't available or going to be added, and I think this is a huge omission on Jonathan's part. Because a lot of marketers make their money in consumer product sites, and need an article that's at least in the ball park of, say, consumer electronics (for which there is nothing.) No sense adding an article about dog training or home improvement to your site which sells Garmin heart monitors. And if you simply embed your heart-monitor anchor links into a dog training article to send to BuildMyRank or other networks (just to get backlinks) that'll look even stupider. So I don't understand what some of these posters are saying about just using it for links...how do you do that if the topics and keywords are that unmatched?

Jonathan says they'll be adding new topics weekly based on demand, and that's cool, but I think they should have waited until the topics list had grown much vaster before releasing this...feels a bit like we're his Beta testers.

And to make sure no affiliate marketers who make most of their incomes from product-based sites are misled (remember, there's a lot of those out there,) I really think he should specify, right on the sales page, that his article topics will likely never serve product sites, the same way someone from his support team did in the response above. Just sayin' .
