Automated Blog Plugin Tools – WP Robot Vs Autoblogged
One of the hottest crazes in internet marketing today are the automated blog tools that are starting to breakthrough. There have been some previous attempts at automated blogs build around RSS feeds, but these always seemed to be lacking the ability to manage the content.
Today’s new automated blog plugin tools do a much better job of scraping article content (legally) while providing all required linking back to the originating website and the links that the original author wants to promote. This legitimizes the automated blog content because and gives recognition to the websites that deserve it.
Two of the better automated blog plugin tools are WP Robot and Autoblogged. While there are other options available, these two (for the moment) have captured the attention of internet marketers interested in pursuing this strategy. There are very good reasons why these products are gaining rapid approval – they are best in class at what they do and they provide solid and reliable platforms to automatically build your blog content.
In the spirit of transparency, I prefer WP Robot. There are several reasons, but the biggest is the ability to pull content from multiple sources, which not only provides more content, but also provides the ability to pull in monetized content. In other words, WP Robot will build articles with monetized content from ClickBank, eBay and Amazon. So you can easily build a monetized website just by using WP Robot to feed your monetized content.
WP Robot also has a “mix” feature that allows you mix and match content from various sources into one article. For example, with WP Robot you can mix content from the following sources into one posting:
- keyword relevant images from Flicker
- keyword relevant article content from articlesbase.com and sooperarticles.com
- keyword relevant auction listings from eBay
- keyword relevant product listings from Amazon
- keyword relevant video from YouTube
- keyword relevant content from RSS feeds
So this tool provides the ability to mix and match content you can create totally unique articles that provide keyword relevant information and keyword relevant products that your visitors can buy.
Autoblogged provides great tools to build content, but does not provide the monetization tools. Even though they provide a great solution around articles and RSS feed integration, not providing the ability to include monetization content reduces its overall strength.
But on the other hand, some niches may be better served through other monetization methods besides eBay, Amazon, or ClickBank, therefore reducing the need for the monetization capabilities that WP Robot provides.
The way I looked at it, the pricing for WP Robot and Autoblogged were pretty similar, although it is more expensive. But I figured that over the long term, the monetization content features might be important as I get more sophisticated in the types of blogs that I want to put up. Therefore, I felt that WP Robot was the better product for me.
The best tool to automate your blog is a WordPress automatic blog content plugin that builds unique content on every post your blog automatically creates.
