@barrymoore12 sorry I don't understand!? You can export from more than one project at a time. Just select all projects holding ctrl/shift and then click EXPORT from the toolbar.
Hello Guys, @Sven i was away form the forums quite some time. Anyway nice to see you with a new software. Although i always wanted you to code web2.0 software like rankerx or social media tool like massplanner.
I read most of the posts, but can someone please give me a reason why to buy this software when i already have kontent machine (which is crap) and SEO content machine.
What does this software doing better that will cost me $150? Thank you in advance
@derdor well I guess if you are satisfied with the other tools, there is no need to buy ours really. Though Im confident that it is already better or will be better in terms of content creation (which is the key point) in the near future. Though I am the coder and listing to my words on this is not really fair. To be honest, the other two products do a great job. They are fine for most cases. However ours supports many other languages, not just English and has a lot options to fine tune things. But I better let other talk here who can compare things better than I.
@derdor I can only comment on the way I used to generate articles, Get Article + WordAi and then Article Forge.
The first way was great for super spun unique but crap, which worked until early last year. Article Forge was better (same guys that make WordAi) but quality started to go downhill and it wouldn't strip links, would have completely irrelevant content in there and I'd spend 5 minutes editing each one when I could have just written them in that time.
I've never used KM so can't comment.
SCM I used the trial a few times, on each **latest** new thing they'd send an email saying do I want to try it again, and just didn't gel with it. I thought it was clunky and slow and gave average results.
With GSACG which I bought a couple of weeks ago, I ran into a few problems - my own problems from not using it correctly - but now overnight I set it off and it's delivered me more than 20k of decent articles. Some I will use for link-building some for populating sites and some for PBNs.
You know how powerful SER (and the other GSA products are) and what Sven has done and can create, I think his reputation is more than enough to entrust that you have a one-off payment content generator that keeps on getting better as Sven doesn't just stop once he's made a product, the support and forum, and updates really a worthwhile investment. It's 3 months of AF for me, so soon I'll be saving money from content.
Download it and try it, and compare like for like with KM and SCM.
@JudderMan thanks for the warm words....on next update I also added a Scheduler. That should be useful for people wanting to have content for a lot of projects quickly.
One feature you could add which would be unique would be different content types templates. For example google is dominated now by tons of "top ten best" insert product name. (I have seen poor english reading website rank in the knowledge graph even for there best product lists).
For example
http://bestreviews.com/best-photography-lighting-sets (not my site obvs wish it was then I would be rich, just found this after looking for camera lights for myself, although wouldnt buy off amazon anyway because they are evil monopoly)
You could create templates which would automaically structure your content into different types of artcles such as. Many of these articles always seem to have same old structure and sections which google is seems is loving at the moment You could bascally make something that recreates this for example.
Create a grid of best products and a rating and then scrape amazon for reviews on a product and inserts that into the grid for that item... and random ratings Create a list of best products 1 2 3 4 5....with a short description/ or just the product specs which could be got from different sources. You could also create a frequently asked questions template section too and grab questions and answer from the same or slight simliar products and add them in and spin them to the section.
Hope this helps.
Although what I am really looking forward to is one off rewriting articles for money sites.. thats where the money is at.
@content32 I think you can party do that already now with the AddIn scrapers. And you can use the Physic.gram file and make a new template out of it for your needs.
Could be only me... but... somewhat i am missing that
my custom sources are always only project based and that my custom sources cant be in general... or at least that there is a easy way to use my custom sources for other projects as well..
@Sven .. funny when i read .. what i wrote... then i start to wonder about myself... this is quite some gibberish
Anyhow... in Settings i can choose what a double click on a Article does do.
i really do like the internal viewer more then the browser view cause i can refresh the article there, the only thing missing yet is that the mousewheel doesnt scroll the article
however i also do like to view the spin tags of the article... now i always need to change the general settings to see the spin tags view... and i just thought it would be nice to have a button where i can have the SpinTags View of the Article ... without the need to change it in General settings.
But then i just figured if i click on Edit... then i ll get exactly what i wanted.. so sorry for the trouble its already implemented just didnt see before...
If its not a super biggie... i would like some changed colors for the spins within the editor window, just to improve visibilty of the spun percentage of the text ....
i dont wanna overdue my luck with this nice piece of software... but i wonder ...
The internal spinner is lightning fast... when i access the API of ChimpRewriter ... only the spinning literally takes forever LOL... hence was wondering if there is a way to speed up the process... so far whenever i used the internal spinner results where quite well spun
btw.. i wanted to play with this Physic.gram algo but i cant seem to find it, has it been removed or renamed?
color on spin: well yes thats on the list and probably gets added once i have finished the T1 Article editor. --- physics: that algo is only available for English articles right now. --- spinner speed up: im sorry, but i can not speed that up really. There has to be some delay between spins to not get banned their.
@sven you are right it would only really be used for heavily spun content. When using the "Good" setting in The Best Spinner option tab almost every word is spun.
@shaun I know what you're talking about but not quite.
For example I generate a heavily spun article with 4 max synonyms where most of the sentence is spun.
Then I import it to GSA SER, I usually set it to post the article 50 times max. That is just a number I pulled from my head.
I would like to be able to right click an article in GSA Content Generator and analyze the article get an estimate of how many times I can post the article while keeping it unique. This would be better than just limiting it to 50.
It's just a suggestion. An easier feature to implement would be the ability to press a "Next" button when previewing an article or use the right arrow key to go to the next article in the project. And be able to press the delete key to delete an article.
The feature could be used when previewing videos, photos and Twitter tweets as well.
Is it possible to add a option to spin every word/phrase when using The Best Spinner? As of right now the "Good" setting skips over several phrases and words. I would like to spin the article as much as possible.
When using these settings in The Best Spinner program I am able to spin almost every word/phrase, compared to inserting the syntax in GSA Content Generator using the "Good" setting.
Other problem I have - scraping content in another language than English (I setup proper laguage in project settings). I tried to scrape websites and in log, I see only:
"Unable to extract content" even If there is a keyword in article etc...
I tried in 5 different websites without luck.
Can you implement scraping websites using option "search engine" but without keywords? using only given URL?
hi Sven has somthing changed as when I try to export the content now it used to ask me to what Tier I want to export it to, but now it just says GSA search engine ranker but where does it go? as I have a number of projects running and I can't find the content?
Derek
it works on an old scrape but not the new one ie if I choose a scrape i did yesterday it allows me to choose the tier but not the one I have just done.
@meph thats what it should do...if you add a website only, it will try to search for the given keyword and extract the data around it. Please show a screenshot of the settings and I will try to reproduce it here. -- @barrymoor12 if you haven't saved the project, it will not be visible to ContentGenerator. crash: can you show the log ?
@Sven I messed up with kwd settings - I had keyword in "Use additional keywords for checking" BUT unchecked options "Keywords must be in URL" and "Use additional keywords for checking" that's why I did not get any articles... Is it supposed to not checking titles/URLs when I unchecked these options?
The app is scraping website but only when I add link as custom and not search engine.
I am trying to setup my own source in ini file - but then app is again replacing my link with %search% etc.
Sample ini file:
[setup]
;name of the source (empty=file name)
name=komputerswiat.pl
;some description
desc=Article Directory
;set a special category in case this is only offering special things
category=Technology
;give a number from 1 to 5 (5 is best) / 0=disabled/not visible
quality=5
;what language is the content in (default en)
lang=pl
;search URL (use %search% as parameter)
url=http://www.komputerswiat.pl/nowosci.aspx
url mask=*komputerswiat.pl/nowosci/*.aspx
1. Is there way to remove some HTML parts from article? In filters I can setup only text but what about HTML?
2. In filters I can not polish chars like "ł" or "ż"
3. There is sth wrong with title parsing:
Article have title (in H1 and in TITLE tag): "Bezprzewodowe słuchawki douszne - test, recenzja 7 modeli dousznych słuchawek bezprzewodowych" but app always get the second part: "test, recenzja 7 modeli dousznych słuchawek bezprzewodowych"
@meph that komputerswiat.pl site uses google as search engine in a frame. So it is not working using that script as you provided it. you can directly create a search engine using google with "site:komputerswiat.pl" as parameter.
@meph 1. the html build with your article is just <h> and <p> and thats added after the parsing 2. fixed in next update 3. actually the tool does not know where the correct title is, it assumes that <title> is holding it. BUT usually you also see the domain added to the title as well as keywords or other un-relevant things. So it tries to remove that by searching for >>, | or also " - ". In that case, yes it might have gone wrong. Anyway next update improved this though.
1. Yes, I know, but sometimes there are some not related HTML tags like ads or "See also" paragraphs in <p> but with own class, so I wanted to remove it with HTML class as it is the same across the whole site. Or to remove sentences contains some links etc.
Some other thoughts:
1. With this script (ini file) I wanted to scrape website's category without using search. Just category listing, so I added to URL %search% parameter which actually does nothing in this case:
But, If you could implement for "search engine" option to not using %search% and checking keywords inside text body - this will allow us to scrape any website articles listings such as tags, categories etc.
Just using URL and URL mask.
2. I see that manual is not ready yet, but wonder if there is some option to select article body inside particular HTML tag like <div id="article">BODY</div> not knowing how it ends (not using content_front and content_back, because there are many others HTML tags inside)
4. I also notice that sometimes app is not getting text from <ul>, <li> etc. It's necessary if I choose to use Same Article algorithm to have full articles.
5. Is it possible to not scraping articles which contain or not contain some text/HTML ?
For example if I want to avoid scraping galleries so I can setup to not parse such article by inserting some unique tag (in filters)?
1. you can use the filter here as well and tell it to remove sentence if it starts with See also or somethign. --- 1. you can leave the %search% from the url, but then the tool needs to find the actual search form and fill it. In your case this is not working as that page does not have it's own search form but uses google as a search engine in a iframe. 2. yes you can do that as well. have a look in the scraper articles\Free Article Zines.ini 3. YES!!!! I agree 4. well that part is indeed not fully extracted, give me a sample and i work on it 5. yes, add gallery in it and the action to skip article

1. select project
2. (optional) select articles
3. click EXPORT
4. Choose GSA Search Engine Ranker (SER) in the template box
5. Choose the SER project
6. Click OK
Thats instantly available in SER, even for a running project.
@shaun I know what you're talking about but not quite.

that should get you the title...but only in latest update it should NOT cut things after "-" because it will hopefully find that in the body itself.
content_front=<div id="article">
content_back=</div><script type="text/javascript">|</script></div>
without that, it will try to extract everything on it's own.
anyway, next update will have that engine added, but i use some other settings as you will see.
