BLOGS: What are the differences between Chio's AutoBlogger and RSS2Blog?
 

I just started reading about this whole auto blogging thing and thinking to purchase chio's script.

what are chio's script advantages over rss2blog, and the other way around?

any other good scripts in this field?

Im interested too

I just sent him this thread. By the way he was going to eat pizza earlier, tell him you're training to be a clairvoyant.

There's also Auto Blog Builder

Love that Pirate :thumbsup , but with RSS2 Blog, I can sit here and dream up blogs and set'em up in seconds! Unlimited baby :thumbsup

If you need the absolute lowdown on rss2blog just icq me now. See sig for demo site, 103 pages in 2 weeks indexed. The hands down best blog tool on the market. No fluff no flutter, just the real deal. 209598065

A couple things I noticed from a quick read of the RSS2Blog site

Chio's has a built-in relinker. Add keywords and URLs, and those keywords are automatically hyperlinked in-line - in the blog text. It works in real time, so you change a URL, it's reflected immediately in the blog. Super cool feature.

Chio's doesn't come with a zillion other BS articles, e-books, tutorials, etc.

Chio's is $199.00 for 10 licenses (I think). RSS2Blog is $247.00 for one.

Chio's is a little rough around the edges yet. It's brand new. But, it's solid enough to crank out blogs in a matter of minutes. I can't wait to see what upgrades come out in the next couple months.

Some of my issues with Chio's product are actually WordPress problems. But, there are tons of plugins for WordPress that got me around most of them. Some required a little SQL/PHP knowledge, and at least one requires a new plugin that I'm working on now.

All in all, I love AutoBlogger Pro, and have bought two of them (20 licenses) so far.

OK let me square you away on some things right away. Rss2blog does not come with a bunch of bullshit ebooks, you're wrong. Rss2blog is 247 PERIOD, no limits, it can use rss feeds, scrape se results for the brave, post your own text, use datafeeds from merchants, post and ping randomly through the day at your set intervals, works with these blogs,

Blogger
TypePad
Word Press
MovableType
LiveJournal
MSN Spaces

It will post google news, it will rotate randomly between the 4 options, meaning it will choose if it posts, rss feed then a news item then your text or scrape se results, or any combination. It will ad nofollow to links, open links in new window, add title to blog posts, enter keywords into blog title, or phrases, it will ping after posting. And it will control as many blogs from a central admin as your server can handle, all hands free. Holler at me if your still not convinced

I said it was $247.00.

Here's what I'm talking about. I just personally hate that kind of marketing. "I have a great product for a fair price - but just to seal the deal I'll throw in all this other stuff for FREEEE!"

Bonus #1
Amazing Affiliate Datafeed Bonus Offer ... ($147.00 value)

As a bonus I am going to include a tutorial that shows you exactly how to clean a datafeed for insertion into RSS to Blog, so that you can begin making money right away.

You'll Receive: A 30 minute conference call recording, where we discuss the following:

How to use affiliate merchant datafeeds in rsstoblog.
How a novice can easily format a feed in 15 minutes
Where to get the best feeds so people aren't "stealing" your commissions
Why RSStoBlog is a better solution for affiliate marketing than anything else available.
A transcribed copy of the call with additional easy to follow notes.
An example "before and after" feed for you to see how it's done.

Bonus #2
Keyword HTML Link Builder
Blog and Ping With RSS to Blog. ($67.00 value)

Bonus #3
EZ Cron
For Those That Do Not Have Access To Cron. ($47.00 value)

So, yeah - if anyone in this market needs that stuff, then I guess it adds value.

What does "clean a datafeed for insertion into RSS to Blog" mean?

No, you said it was $247 for one license, it is $247 for unlimited domains/blogs which can all be controlled from one remote interface. These two points are the most important difference.

These added products do add great value and are quite nifty to have in youe arsenal.

If your blog "network" is 10 blogs or less and you only need basic features go with Chio's :thumbsup

Actually if you are trying to make money with blogs and only have 10 of 'em forget any auto software and nurture each of those babies daily manually for several hours :upsidedow

how much are you making per day with those 54 auto updated blogs?

there is some great value in those extras, forget that stuff, the software alone is amazing. I could never run 50+ blogs manually. And as for cleaning a datafeed file that means formatting an excel file to use in rss2blog, you get the datafeeds from merchants, such as the ones at shareasale.com here is an rss2blog datafeed blog example www.pet-medicines-online.com

It's irrelevant as I do many different mainstream niches were adsense pays 5 cents a click or 5 bucks per click, lets just say im not doing it for the fun of it :winkwink:

Interested in that answer myself. Dont state a money amount Give a real traffic idea.

thanks for the answer :)

traffic varies, if you dont have alot of good content and update atleast 4 times a day imo, your blog is gonna be ho-hum. Tell me another avenue where you can have 103 pages indexed in google in 2 weeks? See sig for the demo sites current 2 week indexing. If you dont think after 1 month traffic will be rolling in, then I dont know what to tell you sir. :2 cents:

Just asking a few questions before I dump money into something. Its like test driving a car before buying it.

absolutely my friend. I hear ya a mile away, but gotta put gas in the car before she goes, ya know? ICQ anytime

Veterans, what blog software are you using?

rss2blog and wordpress exclusively

Don't forget Reblog.org, which doesn't come "encoded" and is Free.

bump let's keep this discussion going...

how does it compare to the paid scripts in terms of features?

I thought we already went over this :)

http://www.gfy.com/showthread.php?t=...utoblogger+pro

OK comparing autoblogger pro to rss2blog is just silly :), they are totally different. If you want to build a site/s that looks like a real person is working it with automated linking, and sitemap building plus some other cool stuff about to be announced, then get autoblogger pro.

Blogger just came out against splogger software like rss2blog. So it's going to get more difficult to use products like rss2blog.

Demo site using autoblogger pro is here: http://www.fandangos.com

this site was setup 3 months ago to test the script.

If you look at the stats here: http://www.fandangos.com/webalizer/web/ you can see it's growing pretty quickly. The demo jumped from pr0 to 4 in one update as well.

Maybe some other people that are using it can come in and talk about it.

Any questions you have I am here.

Autoblogger Pro does all this and more. :)

I've said it before the only thing rss2blog has over autoblogger pro is remote posting to blogger, but blogger/google just came down hard on the sploggers using scripts like rss2blog.

if Autoblogger Pro have all the same functions, except for the blogger one, what's the reason to buy rss2blog?

One of Relink Software's customers sites using Autoblogger Pro was indexed in less than one week. :upsidedow

how easy are they to use compared to each other?

take over an exisiting blog with traffic in your niche
www.unscripted.com/takeover.html

am i the only one who can't decide which one to buy?

Autoblogger Pro uses Wordpress for it's engine which means it's easy to use, theme, and add plugins. Any theme/plugin will work with autoblogger if it works with WP.

shows a blank page for me, tried some more at http://www.masterblog.biz/
same problem :thumbsup

"If your blog "network" is 10 blogs or less and you only need basic features go with Chio's "

what are the "advanced" feaures rss2blog have that autoblogger pro doesn't?

AutoBlogger Pro Basic? Who said that? RSS2blog doesn't do Dynamic linking, auto sitebuilding, image pulling. So you get more, and it costs less too. I'll ICQ some people that bought AutoBlogger Pro and ask them to say how they're doing with it. :)

It's usually super fast... each blog comes with 3 rss feeds too.. :)

I quoted that from OzMan's post.

Not saying that any program is better than the other, just trying to figure out which one rocks googles socks :)

what did your shitty blogs have to do with autoblogger or rss2blog btw?

they are an alternative to those that don't want to build or host anything.

~Ray

they are so incredibly ugly, what's the point helping you create content for your blogs so you make money? feels a tad bit smarter to make own blogs on blogger or wherever... :2 cents:

No problem, they are a bit different. I prefer quality over quantity. I don't mind spamming to get results, but I think longterm autoblogger pro is a better product (google just deleted thousands of spam blogs from it's blogger.com service). ICQ me, and I can better explain, and demonstrate the features. It's a little easier that way.

This business was setup for a long time friend/ coder of mine that custom coded a lot of the stuff for me that we will be releasing on relinksoftware.com. I don't want to get into a pissing match over which is better, autoblogger was custom coded to be exactly as I needed, so of course I will think it's better.

The proof is in the results. VD says, it took 2 weeks to get a site indexed, autoblogger did it in less than one. Again it depends on what you are looking to do.

On a side note: A lot of features have been added based on customer requests. I'll be making an announcement on those as well as Forum Autoposter on Sunday.

I must say, there is an element of the ridiculous in this discussion, and my head is shaking to see the collective folly of the industry alive and well, and steering the USS Porntanic toward her fate.

I have written enough words on the subject already, which have been read by enough of you already, that I should need only a few here to re-iterate:

EVEN IN THE MIDST OF OPPORTUNITY, YOUR LAZINESS HAS PUSHED YOU TOWARDS AUTOMATION, THINKING, AS ALWAYS, THAT MORE IS MORE. IT'S NOT. FOR BEING AUTOMATED, THE METHODS THAT YOU USE CREATE PATTERNS. THESE PATTERNS ARE A JOKE FOR ANYBODY LOOKING TO DETECT. WORSE THAN THAT, YOU ALWAYS BREAK THE RULES, OFTEN THE LAW. STOP IT, ALREADY. THE CAVE MONSTER IS NEVER SO ASLEEP AS YOU BELIEVE, LITTLE RASCALS -- :1orglaugh

FOR THOSE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE, WHO HAVE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS AS GREAT AS YOURS, THE BEST PART OF THIS IS YOUR INCREDIBLE ENTHUSIASM. TO THEM, YOU SEEM A BAND OF RAVING IDIOTS CHASING A TRAIL OF CRUMBS DOWN THE LENGTH OF A PIER.

LOOK UP!

AS FOR THE QUESTION OF THE THREAD, CHIO, HANDS DOWN. IN ANSWER TO WHY AUTBLOGGER: BECAUSE IT GIVES ME MANY OF THE ADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATION WITH FEW ENOUGH OF THE LIABILITIES OF AUTOMATION TO PERMIT ITS USE.

2hp

Thanks Fusionx. We just added two new features now that the coder is settled again (bad time to move :) ). testing them today. The image thing was added, and the linking system was updated a slight bit :)

Forgot to mention the category specific feeds, we are looking into that as well.

i am using rsstoblog, last 3 weeks for 4 blogs(wordpress). till now i got indexed 135 pages in google. google and yahoo spider visited more than 1000 times .

I dont know about autoblogger

hi chio when your Forum AutoPoster will be ready?

Announcement coming tomorrow :)

Why some people associate spam and rss2blog continuously is beyond me, but if you want to build a massive blog network that will run hands free for as long as you want, then rss2blog is for you. Check the demo site below, more pages being indexed by google everyday. Theres even more this morning to my surprise. :) Heres todays early SE stats thus far after 18 days :winkwink:

Google 100 91.7 % 100 91.7 %
Unknown search engines 4 3.6 % 4 3.6 %
Yahoo 3 2.7 % 3 2.7 %
MSN 2 1.8 % 2 1.8 %

May be a great tool, but that web site in your sig looks like a bad infomercial. No offense, but it is a spitting image of all those "LEARN HOW TO MAKE $1000 AN HOUR ON THE NET!"-type sites I've seen way too many times.

Yes! I want to make money now!
Yes! I want to build a blog empire!
Yes! I want your software now!

But hey, if it works for you and gets sales, great -- But imo, if I came across that site using a Google search, etc. I'd hit the Back button in 2 seconds flat.

Have a good day :thumbsup

RSS2Blog is being looked at as a Splog tool by Yahoo pretty seriously if Jeremy Zawodny's posting about it.
