yes it is..but when u get 30-40 articles then they all started to 'read similar'..though sentences are different, the flow is same..and I think G can detect that..If I am using this as tier1 article, I don't post more than 50...thats max..IF i am using it as tier2..I dont care too much and use sometimes for entire campaigns..
Anyway I dont use handspun articles that much these days
Makes sense -- however, there IS a way to break up patterns in sentences so each article has a different form and I am working on adding in that element like the Ultra Spun Articles over at LeadingArticles.com.
Here's the sample article they have on learning Spanish -- which is mainly the TITLE and FIRST PARAGRAPH:

so all this talk about content gave me an idea and I created this service for people that want content from Kontent Machine but don't want to pay the monthly fee. I created it after reading this thread, so I really value your feedback. Like I said, it will be using Kontent machine. So this is for people that don't want to pay the monthly fee for kontent machine but still want the templates and content from it.
I'm starting out at $3 per campaign and I'll see how it goes.
Number 1 rule in making a proposition -- you left out the PRICE. That'll instantly drop conversions below 1% unless you tell folks up front. That's my specialty -- conversions
I just added a feature to bizadder.com were i make the opening paragraph from article builder if your niche is in one of the many categories over there. This way the title and the opening paragraph read really well.
I am going to include that for free and reduce the price per campaign to $2. Go give it a try and tell me what you think.
We have just released v1.1.1 This version provides much more accurate and relevant articles based on your keywords. We found that the article source search engines were returning many irrelevant articles so we added our own filter on top to ensure increased accurary.
So now, if you search using a simple term eg car battery, then each word will have to be present in a source article for it to be considered. You can still use quotes eg "car battery" to ensure the entire exact phrase is present in an article. You can still use negative terms eg car battery -motorcycle, to exclude source articles that contain negative terms.
The tests we have done show much better relevance and accuracy (easy to tell from the titles returned!).
1.1.1
NEW More accurate and relevant articles (some article source search engines were returning poorly matching articles)
NEW Faster finding of categories from articles
To update simply click the update button on the Help and Support tab inside ACW.
you should be be able to update automatically from inside ACW on the Help/Support tab. It just installs what has changed rather than do a full update - much easier now.
Yes 1.1.1 is the latest version, there's a chance the msi is out of date, just clicking update.
@theorbital -- I'm a fan of the single page salesletter for sure. However, and not to be critical here -- but I believe the copywriting is choppy and lacking flow that will lead to higher conversions. I know you're just starting with your offer and trying to build a little side biz while you get the search engine stuff working for yourself -- but the more you work on that copy -- the BETTER your own sites will convert as well as the bizadder.com site. ;-)
collywobbles - Been using it and I love it. A couple of additional features to make it better would be to randomize number of paragraphs with spin sentences selected and the ability to scrape multiple keywords/phrases. I usually have 20+ keywords and that means I have to do that individually for each keyword/phrase. Also, ability to randomize number of pics and videos and their placement... it uses the same number and always places them in the same location.
Even otherwise an awesome tool and an excellent replacement for GAP Pro.
1.1.4 NEW User defined templates allow easily customisable output for use with 3rd party tools eg GSA, Sick, SeNuke
BUG Fixed bug with categories when posting articles to Wordpress
First a reminder that we do have an affiliate program, just sign up in the membership area, we pay out 20% of any sales (without tax).
We have already done two releases so far this year. The first was to fix a few little bugs. The second release, today, of ACW 1.1.4 introduces a new feature called Custom Templates. You could already save ACW output as text, html, PDF or as a template for other tools like Sick and GSA Search Engine Ranker. Well now you can customise the output template for these tools or for importing into other tools that we don't support directly (eg SeNuke).
Full details of the custom templates are in the updated PDF which is in the install folder (or click Guide in the Help tab of ACW).
Here is an example custom template (just a text file), which is actually a slightly enhanced version of the built in GSA template
##ACW_LINEBREAK=\n##
##ACW_KEYWORDSEP=,##
##ACW_CATEGORYSEP=|##
Keywords #ACW_KEYWORDS#
Article_Title #ACW_TITLE#
Article #ACW_ARTICLETEXT#
Article_Summary #ACW_75#
Category #ACW_CATEGORIES#|Misc*|General|misc*
Website_title #ACW_TITLE#
Description_250 #ACW_250#
Description_450 #ACW_450#
The ## commands simply define values and the # commands get replaced by the relevant ACW output such as category, title, article body etc
i bought ACW too ... but pitty for some niches like playstation network ... i get too less conent .. but i read above you can add more keywords with ; have to try if that gives better results
else it looks pretty good and it generates a easy data file you can import again ..
uhm @collywobbles .. i am new to the template stuff with GSA .. so .. i put that text in GSATEMPLATE.txt and then ?
Use ACW to generate your spun article then go to Publish and save as GSA template. If you don't want to use the built in template for GSA then create your own (eg the one above).
Then in GSA, edit or create a project, and go to Tools->Import->Data Fields, and load the ACW article file. Your fields will be filled in.
If you are having keyword issues then please send them to support@autocontentwriter.com and I will try to help you. But yes, you are correct, if there isn't much content at the article sites then we can't scrape it.
great !! i wrote you a mail @collywobbles thanks for the VERY quick support!
maybe you could add some "fallback" like in KM .. scraping some blogs content .. or anything
------------ collywobbles said : I forgot to say, to use a custom template, select "Custom" on the "save as template" dialog. You can then browse and choose the custom template, then ACW will save your spun article using your template.
The problem with scraping blogs is that it is difficult to extract the content. We use lots of regular expressions to search/scrape/extract sentences from article sites. Also with blogs, you don't know what the quality will be like....
