Article Bot

I have just had a look at two tutorials for Article bot - content writing software as I was going to buy it.

This costs a minimum of $50 per month!

From what I saw it is little more than a glorified Find and replace tool like you get in MSWord with a dictionary included.

You have to go through a document and select every word you want to change - what is the point? - I can do that myself better and quicker.

What am I missing?

cheers

Probably not a lot, for $50 you could can have between 8 - 10 new articles per month on your site a far better investment.

You are missing the stupidity required to actually pay $50 a month for it.

It's like a search and replace, but when you go through a document and indicate four to ten different variants for each word or phrase, what happens is that you are setting the stage to be able to churn out tens of thousands of pages within the space of a couple hours. Not only will it churn out the pages, but it will spit out the HTML, too. Instant website with tens of thousands of pages in it.

That's something MS Word cannot do.

I tried the first version of ArticleBot and found it painful to work with and it didn't really work. Maybe they've improved the product but I'm not inclined to give it another try because they've already wasted five hours of my time and I don't have anymore time to waste.

Yes, I suppose so, but when the document gets long and complicated changing words soon loses meaning and the whole thing looks very poor.

Still for say a 50-100 word document it may work in a limited sense.

Problem is the price they ask ($600 per year) is totally unrealistic imo

cheers.
