Article Spinner??

Whats worth a look then James?

What's a "real" spinner?

For the couple of people above who chose to bash me personally instead of responding to the content of my post (James and Glenn), I still stand by my original opinion. It is based on three years of writing professionally on the web, so it is not in any way unfounded or ignorant. And yes, I have been reading posts here for the last two years and am quite familiar with spinners.

I think that spinners will simply not give you the same results as far as content goes. If you want articles just for articles sake, then feel free. But from a content perspective, they just aren't the same, IMO.

Feel free to disagree with me, but at least do it respectfully.

you are so far behind the times.. autojetspinner.com does this to your text -


Remember, the {standard|quality} of the spun article {relie|depend}s on the human effort poured into it. Even if you were to manually re-write, it w{on'|ill no}t come out good if you were to do a{ slipshod| cheap| sub-standard} job. {By the way|BTW|Incidentally}, I used to think {article|content} spinning is a waste of {your |}time. And I was {horrifi|appall|confound}ed by the standard of the spun articles. {Unti|Til}l I realized the stuff I just {mention|discuss}ed above. A good re{-word|writ|phras}ing tool is {vit|cruci|critic}al {as well |too}. A good tool, with minimal learning curve, will {help|aid} you in your {productivity|effectiveness|productiveness}.

looks ok to me.

I don't know if you need to go back to school to sharpen your reading comprehension skills or what. Seriously, you really ought to FULLY READ posts before you reply to them.

My original post, the points you seemed to completely ignore are bolded for emphasis:

Yes, some spinners will give you good quality articles, it depends a lot on what you put into them. Some tools that simply use synonyms are just absolutely ridiculous.

What people who own spinners, I'm talking the better article spinners, often gloss over or don't even bother to mention is that you're going to have to sit there and bust your butt replacing words and phrases by hand anyway before you can get good spins.

Don't get me wrong, if you have a seed article and have 1-2 quality re-writes of the same article some of these spinners work well, you'll still have to proofread and tweak some of them.

The point is, there is no push button solution. You're still going to have to either re-tool the seed article yourself or hire someone to do quality re-writes on the same article and then use those articles for the spinner.

Now, PLEASE ENLIGHTEN me how your post that confirms it takes you TWO HOURS refutes the facts that:

A: You don't have to re-tool the article by hand
B: It's not a push button solution.

Edit:

If you read my post, I'm not close minded or attacking spinners (garbage ones yes.) The better ones have their place. I'm saying that no software can replace the human mind when it comes to content writing, not at this point anyway.

A smart marketer will take advantage of both humans and software to maximize their business. If someone had multiple re-writes of the same article it would probably take a little less time to re-tool the article and you could probably get higher unique content results to boot.

Stop trying to make it sound like I have issues with article spinners, other than the garbage ones, I don't. The only gripe that I have was mentioned, many times the fact you have to spend a lot of time and effort to re-tool an article is either omitted or glossed over by spinner creators.

Is the time spent re-tooling less than if you actually hand re-wrote each article, definitely. Would it cost less than outsourcing re-writes, probably. However, It still takes time, effort, and work. All I was saying is that they aren't push button solutions.

There doesn't have to be an all or nothing attitude on either side of the debate. You don't have to JUST use an article spinner and you don't have to JUST re-write or outsource re-writes of your articles. There is nothing wrong with re-writing or outsourcing some rewrites and then putting those rewrites into a quality article spinner. This is probably the best way to maximize your ROI.

P.S. To you and the poster above me, nowhere in my post did I ever claim I could produce that many articles in that amount of time, nice attempt at a straw man, but it doesn't hold water in relation to the true points I was making in my post.
