But enough about Batts. :1orglaugh

Congrats on the launch!

So far so good. I used to use FWP with some custom mods I coded, but this is nice as it posts to as many blogs as I want. Already can't wait to hear what'll be in the next update. :thumbsup

Thank you very much! :thumbsup

I bought the non-stand alone a good while back and have never done a thing with it. I probably should one of these days. :)

give me a copy of autoblogger pro standalone and you can have my sig for 2 months :) hehe

Congrats, guys!!!

Bless you Sister Diona. Thank you for your purchase many moons ago but as the image below shows you should be using it. It's really easy to setup, and build traffic nicely.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Probably so. Didn't you and I spend some time on ICQ mapping stuff out? Or was that another Selena?

Hehe, in early December, we are planning to offer copies of ABP Stand Alone in exchange for sales referred. Figure 3 sales or so gets ya a free copy. If you own the ABP 25-license right now, though, the Stand Alone is only $99 for the next 2 weeks or so.

Thanks much!

Like it's a lie! :winkwink:

50 autoblogger users........

Good shit yaooo, I gotta upgrade for sure

I only tried out the single domain license once courtesy of chio, I didn't care for it at the time because I was so used to R2B being standalone, but now that ABP is standalone, hell, I have no excuse....I was just givin ya a good deal on the sig cause I love the product ;)

Did you get the email regarding the upgrade? It might have hit your spam filters.

Can it remix the feeds? ie.. instead of posting out to.. can it create a set of new RSS feeds that I can then import from other sites?

So, you want to put a custom set of feeds on a specific site? That's easy enough to do, using the Autoblogger Pro Stand Alone campaign manager.

Then, once it's out on a Wordpress site, you can pull that feed to anywhere you'd like.

That's what I'd do, at least.

Right.. that could be a workaround I guess. It's so easy to create an RSS feed tho, so maybe you'll add that to your program? I'm a reblog user and that's how I've been using it. Then I can use feedburner, forum software like Invision, etc.. to grab the rss feeds and import them.

Sounds like a good feature to add, and I think we've talked about it before as a possibility. I'll put it on the list. Thanks for the suggestion!

:thumbsup

Sorry, missed this post before. I gotcha. I don't consider R2B a competitor, per se, and wouldn't talk smack about anyone's stuff anyway, but I'm glad you're digging our stuff.

We're all about doing deals for people who don't want to shell out the cash, but I'd prefer to tie it to performance rather than "it's in my sig." I'm sure you understand.

awesome news Chio, getting a copy shortly!

Good to hear. Thanks much! :thumbsup

i got a chance to try this out.. the interface rocks, its very smooth..

one of the coolest things imo is the relationship between feeds<->campaigns<->blogs.. its difficult to explain but a very intuitive and ingenius way of doing it.

also another cool feature is the ability for it to bring in a feed and backdate all the posts properly in wordpress, as they were dated in the rss feed.

very cool stuff. get a copy before he decides to increase the price to what its really worth..

</shill> :1orglaugh

Thanks for the comments and compliments, studiocritic. For sure, we've tried to make it as intuitive as possible. As you can probably tell from the screenshots, the UI wasn't slapped together in a few days. It's the result of a LOT of fine-tuning, tweaking, revamping, paring down, building up, breaking fixing, stapling, setting on fire .... etc.

:)

As far as increasing the price to what its really worth ... it's funny you say that. People (especially in the SEO realm) seem to keep saying that .. they want it at thousands of dollars so that only a few people can afford it. We say: fuck that, and fuck them! Autoblogger Pro is a tool for EVERYONE to use. There's a NEED for something like this, and we're delivering it -- sure, the sales are great, but at the end of the day, happy users are worth their weight in gold.

Just so I'm clear, if you own the single license of ABP, is there any break on the standalone price or is that only if you own the network version?

Good stuff. An already GREAT app is improved. Nice work!

done! :thumbsup

Thanks! It took me quite some time, and a lot of invested energry, so I'm glad you like it.

Thanks so much. The more the merrier. We intend to WIN!

From the other thread:

We discussed how this would affect single-license owners for a long time .. this wasn't something we just came up with after falling off of our bar stools.

The issue was this:

Network License owners, who have 25 domains, paid $299 for their software. The Stand Alone version, which is a completely different product, is being offered for $299 as well. In recognition of the Network License owners' investment in Relink Software and in Autoblogger Pro, we decided to give them a special upgrade price. This price will be available for 2 weeks or so.

Single License owners, who have only 1 domain, paid $99 for their software. It wouldn't make sense to really discount the Stand Alone version much in recognition of the $99 purchase. I mean, really, they got a LOT of product for $99 to begin with.

The math works like this -- let's say you've got a single license ($99), then you got an upgrade ($99). You'd end up paying $198 for the Stand Alone PLUS your regular license. If you had a network license ($299) plus the upgrade ($99), you'd end up paying $398 for the Stand Alone plus your network license. As you can see, it wouldn't be very fair to those who chose to opt for the larger license initially.

Remember, also, we're talking about an upgrade to UNLIMITED licenses here, with the Stand Alone version. Network License owners chose to look at a big picture of their networks, and make an investment commensurate with this outlook. This is also why we don't offer upgrades from the single license to the network license. 25 domains with the network license ends up being $12 per domain, which is a 88% discount off of the single domain price. We'd be damaging the investment and trust that the network license users placed in us if we allowed this type of upgrade.

Single License owners, of course, are valuable to us, and we appreciate their business, so the decision was not made lightly. We feel, however, it is a fair one, and hope that you will choose to purchase the Stand Alone version because of the features and benefits it will bring to you, and not feel like you're getting any less of a deal on the product.

Feel free to ICQ me if you'd like to speak privately about it.

How soon do you think you might add in that little feature I need? :)

The next *planned* release (of the Standalone v1.1) is December 01st. I will let you know if we plan to put it in for that release, the next one, or before that one. It all depends on the volume of sales and support/feature requests I get bombarded with.

Sales have been AMAZING today, so. :)

In the meantime, I suppose the Wordpress idea would work.

Voted for your product, at Xbiz Awards. Good luck!

It is much appreciated, Reverend Brujah! :winkwink:

I can't believe this was on Page 2. The SHAME.

congrats on launching you new version....

looks like a much improved product. congratz :thumbsup

Thanks much. I've always loved Autoblogger Pro for the RESULTS, but now I can love it for its sexiness, too. It's a good thing. :1orglaugh

Chio.. I'm going to pick ip a copy soon, I wonder if you might think of adding a nice little feature?

I think a thumb cropper could be a very nice little add on, to something like this. It wouldn't need to be anything fancy like a TGP script uses, no need to scan the images and so on.

Just a simple croping tool that would allow you to set the url or file path to the image you want to crop on your PC or on the web. You would of course need to be able to set the thumb size and what it links to and so on.

A simple example of a cropper can be found here.. http://labs.silverorange.com/a/photo...y/photocropper

git up.. git on up
