AH Okay, I'll see if that works. Thanks

Something I noticed about the plugin. If you go to the bottom to click on yes for the options, you cannot change the radio buttons ( I think that's what they're called) back to No.
Looks like it can be fixed by custom fields, though.

Steven Fullman

Really?

Something's not right, then.

You should be able to use the radio buttons (that's exactly what they're called ) to "override" the global settings...

I can change them to "yes" or "no"...

Is it all of them, or just a specific one? I'm quite happy to take a look for you, if you like...just send me a PM with some login details and I'll get it sorted for you.

(Of course, as you point out, you can change the custom fields instead, but that's not the way I designed it!)

Thanks,
Steve

madmagician

It's all of them. Right now the global settings are on No. But If I move the settings in the post at the bottom them to Yes, I can't switch over back to No. Mouse or keys on keyboard.

Also nm, turns out it's happening with my Flock Browser.
It works on Chrome, haven't tried IE or Firefox. It's probably just me then. Sorry!

madmagician

Also it def turns out it was temporary. Picking up random text from the article and searching for it again has me ranked on top. It was an EZA article too.

I hadn't actually done anything yet after reading your post today. When I made the post originally yesterday, I had bookmarked it.

Pretty cool.

Steven Fullman

Thanks for letting me know!

That's AWESOME news

Well done!

Best wishes,

Hi Steve

I have just purchased (fantastic value!) but am new to autoblogging.

I am working on a test blog where links come in from an article database via an RSS feed. I am assuming that WPUnique will work it's magic in this environment?

What I would like is WPUnique to do the synonym thing and the text2url thing to the articles coming in from the feed.

I am assuming this will work okay?

Is there any conflict if the words I want text2url to pick up are also words that have been swapped in by the synonym option?

And last question, can I have an affiliate link for this when you launch it?

AJ

Metro123

just purchased plugin and installed already.

Will give feedback in a few days. But looks promising. Thanks

Steve ...purchased and installed. Had some questions so I sent a PM....Let me know if you have another way you'd rather communicate.

Scott

scottparat

Steve....disregard PM....I figured out what I was doing wrong.

Thanks

Scott

PhoebeSmellyCat

Well, I went ahead and purchased because of the price and I don't even have a blog yet!

No entirely true. I have a domain name and hosting and installed Wordpress, but that's as far as I have gotten.

Figuring out WP is a whole other animal.

Steven Fullman

Hi AJ,

Thanks for your custom, and kind words!

The RSS feed should be fine, yes.

RE: The text2url/synonym question. The only thing you should be aware of is that the synonym code runs before the text2url function.

So, if you want to turn the phrase "Dog Training" into "Puppy Training", then you should make your text2url phrase "Puppy Training".

Does that make sense?

Thanks again, AJ
Steve

Steven Fullman

Thanks, Metro!

Best wishes,
Steve

Steven Fullman

Thanks, Scott

I got your PM

(awesome suggestion, by the way, that's definitely on my list for the next version!)

Kind regards,
Steve

Steven Fullman

Lol

Thank you!

WP is a whole other animal, but at least it's not a smelly one!

(I take it you're a Friends fan?)

Best wishes, and thanks again,
Steve

Hi Steve,

just bought, downloaded and installed... no problems so far. Runs great. I'm looking forward to the results. Thanks!

Aside from the fact that Mr Fullman is a very smart guy who has developed what I think is an awesome piece of kit, he is also a stand-up guy.

Unlike some vendors who will try to use scare tactics to get you to buy their tools, Steven tells you the truth. No gimmicks... no shady tricks... no stunts.

That counts for a lot in my book, and I ain't got no doubt that our Steve will go a long way.

The plug-in looks awesome but is there any way to make content pass copyscape? That would be a plus.

Steven Fullman

Thanks!

The answer is yes!

I must say, though, this plugin is not intended to pass CopyScape...it's intended to pass Google. Totally different beasts.

However...

When you make decent use of both the synonym file (add to it or edit it to your heart's content!) , and the "Keywords 2 Links" function...and you'll end up with a CopyScape unique article.



Thanks for your questions, and your kind comments.

Best wishes,
Steve

Steven Fullman

Oz,

High praise indeed, especially coming from you.

I really appreciate you dropping by to comment.

You're a star, and thank you!

I hope you're well and thanks again

Steve

madmagician

Well my site got pushed down the index now. It's ranking #423, now.
Not too good.

admiral

hi,steve i purchased wp unique a few days back and find it excellent and find your very helpful follow up comments here on the forum a joy to behold have you any plans on updates steve in the near future.

Steven Fullman

Hi Doug,

It should be fine, as long as your RSS feeds are pulled in as individual posts.

Cheers,
Steve

Steven Fullman

Hi,

Quite possibly the famous (or infamous) "Google Dance" going on here.

Give it a few days and you'll most likely find your site ranking where it was before (or higher)

This happens quite a lot, especially to relatively new domains.

Cheers,
Steve

Steven Fullman

Thanks, admiral. I appreciate your kind comments.

Yes, I have plans to upgrade in the next month or so.

Some great suggestions have been coming in!

Best wishes,
Steve

Why are you so sure this plug in will make articles unique in google's eyes?
Any explanation besides your video proof above?
Google team is monitoring this thread very closely now?

Shaun

Please.... Get A Life??

Scripteen

You really made my day specially on that last line
Yeah google pays it's employees to search google for "Google" and trace every piece of content talking about them

john3

Is there a risk of being banned by Google if a manual review is done?

John

Steve, am I correct in thinking that you should use the Uniquify feature OR the Auto-Spin feature but not both or search engines will not be able to see (read) the spun article?

Also, not sure if it's unique to me but if you set the defaults to 'yes' and then try to change them to 'no' on individual posts (e.g., on your own content), you have to click each 'no' radio button multiple times before it sticks. Even if defaults are all 'no' the same happens if you click on 'yes' and then try to change back to 'no'.

Thanks,
Benz1

Yes, Buddha teaches us not to believe what you see or what you hear or what people try to convince you. But you have to try it out by yourself.

patlondon

I'm hoping you could sort of translate this some more..?

Steven Fullman

These are valid questions.

Does it make articles unique? Can you prove it. And what's the risk?

I don't have an @google.com email address, therefore I'm not privy to Google's algorithm.

However, I can offer my results, the results of my testers, and anyone else who's been kind enough to publish their results back to this thread.

The risk? minimal. This isn't a "black hat" technique. This is re-encoding standard ascii text into an equally standard html format.

It goes on all the time

Steve

Hmmm....See above.

Jeremy Kelsall

I can vouch for the fact that this plugin works - AND WORKS WELL...

We have been using an inhouse plugin that works the same way and have enjoyed many high ranking sites because of it.

No google slaps

No bans

Just high rankings and commission checks.

Not only that, but Steve is a nice guy...So, buy his stuff

Jeremy

Steven Fullman

Hi Benz1,

You can use both together...(and you should)

(the radio button thing isn't right...it should flick between "Yes" and "No" seamlessly...PM me and we'll sort it out)

Cheers,
Steve

Steven Fullman

The text gets converted into HTML character codes. Perfectly legal, yet different from the regular alphabet.

It's like "machine code"...remember that?

Kind regards,
Steve

scorpio9

So how come you believe in what Budda is teaching :confused:

"The text gets converted into HTML character codes. Perfectly legal, yet different from the regular alphabet."

Guess I'm going to need to do some more digging on that Steve..being blonde and non-teckkie..well that should be interesting.

I did have similar results as you show in the video at first. I changed the title and the author's link to a straight url with an Ezine article...
It was just a little test on my part and within 15 minutes I was on front page and the original author was in supplemental. Jeesh That was surprising!

Now back to the Ezinearticle. In order to comply with terms of service, changing the title, adding text links and not leaving the resource box with live link is all not allowed. After fixing all of that and leaving the uniquify option checked..I am on page 3 for same post today.

I'm not sure what to make of this yet only cause I'm not really understanding what exactly is going on with the code...exactly how does converting text into html character codes help make a post more unique or rank better. This is what I'm not getting.

Keith I'm glad it's been a hit with you!




Thanks

joe0074

It's the same way that you believe in Jesus.

Steven Fullman

Hi

It makes the text "different". That seems to translate to "new"...or at least "newer".

Steve

Steven Fullman

Fine by me.

Kind regards,
Steve

Let's say I am competing on a highly competitive niche and I use the re-publishable contents off of a top 10 article publication and slap in a few backlinks to my WP page. Will I still be able to outrank the site with the original content?

Also how to many bookmarks do you think will suffice? I normally just cover the top 20. Do I have to do more if I am taking on a fairly high authority site with loads of backlinks?

Steven Fullman

Hi

I'd say if you followed that plan, you'd be well ahead of most folks.

If the original content has a ton of backinks, then, of course, you'll struggle.

But if you use your strategy...

Steve

patlondon

Oh! OK that's cool then! I was going off the notion that somehow it was adding more keywords..spinning the text and such so that only the search engines would see it.

thanks for clarifying!

Pat

Shift

I installed the plugin and tested it on a post, but I just want to clarify a few things to make sure I'm doing it properly.

When I go to WPUnique settings, all of the four options are set to no (because I want to only use such settings for individual posts,
but when I go to edit plugins it says the synonyms.txt (inactive)
dictionary.txt (inactive)
keyword2url.txt (inactive)
wpunique.php (active).

I'm not sure why it's listing the wpunique as active when the global setting is off?

When editing a post, when I click yes to uniquify the post at the bottom,
it does not update the `custom fields' section.
I must manually type in yes in the custom fields section.
After updating the post, when I then read the post the content is not altered or uniquified.
Does uniquifying the post only alter the code into ascii,
whereas the auto-spin only spins the text with synonyms?

Only if I also choose yes in the auto-spin in post section is the post altered.

Thanks and I look forward to working more with this plugin.

Steven Fullman

Hi Shift,

That doesn't sound right.

I'm happy to take a look, if you PM me some login details to your blog.

Thanks,
Steve

I rate this as one of the most valuable and usable products to pop up in quite a while. Easy is smart, and it is. Also comes at a pricepoint that should allow everyone to give it a go. Highly recomended.

Doiron

I just installed this plugin and it was one of the easiest things I've ever done - and I always screw up something technical when I try something like this for the first time.

Every one of the four features/controls are valuable and worth buying on their own. Great job, Steven.

Now here's my big problem. I was just about to buy an autoblogger but Steven says he's about to write one. If it's as clever as this one, it will probably be worth waiting for.

Any idea when that one may appear?

patlondon

I've used this plugin on 2 posts just messing around, and within 15 minutes I was listed above the original author in the results using a random sentence to search. Very cool. I'm ranking on page 2 and 3 now for same articles, also ahead of original author, and that's pretty amazing! I've done this pretty regularly before with my really big sites but never with small 5 page deals, so this is wow.

Steven,
Please let me know if you offer developer license for this product.

Thanks

Hey Steve,
amazing results and you have a very powerful wordpress plugin,
