ContentFX-ToBeOrNotToBe?

That is the question… (sorry couldn’t resist).

I have voiced my opinion before on scraped content and article spinners and I still have the same view, stay away from them. But I am now looking at the next generation of content creation. It is unique content. It does read well and make sense, but is it effective? Let’s find out

You may or may not heard of ContentFX. It was formerly known as iContentRobot but the team split up and went their seperate ways. ContentFX is an article membership service that enables you to get unique articles by hitting a button.  How does this differ from all the other spinners out there? Let me explain…

Generally and article spinner will change your article by finding different meanings for the words within it.  This sounds great in principle but when you try it yourself you will see it turns your article into utter rubbish.

Example

Content is king but creating enough unique content without blowing your budget can be a real pain

Run this sentence through an article spinner and you are likely to get something like this.

happy is king but creating enough individual happy without blowing your finance can be a real ache

So yes it’s a completely unique sentence but is complete garbage and provides no quality to the reader whatsoever. The only way to make spinners work is to spend hours with them and if you going to do this you may as well write a new article.

So what’s different this time. ContentFX uses variables. So if we take the above sentence again and write it using variables it would be something like this.

Content is {king/paramount/everything/the most important online asset} but {finding/creating} enough {unique content/content that ius fresh and unique} without {blowing your budget/spending all your money/having to pay out a fortune} can be a {real pain/total nightmare}.

So everything in { } becomes a variable and is seperated by the /. Each time the article is generated the software will randomly use one of these variables meaning that each time you generate a new article you end up with unique content that reads well and makes sense.

This is not the first softwrae of it’s kind. Jetspinner have had a similar program for a while but the problem is that you have to rite an article in the above fashion yourself which takes a loooong time, (i’ve tried). What ContentFX have done is built up a stock of articles covering hundreds of niches so you are always likely to find an article about your niche. They have also adde other features such as blog creation service that automatically updates with this new found content, and each member gets an article directory which is kept up-to-date because all the other members articles get submitted to your directory.

I would call this a grey hat strategy. It’s not really offering value to the search engines but it does give the visitor unique content that has reader value. Would I recommend it? NOT YET.

I have only recommend 3-4 services on my blog and have ALWAYS used them myself to make sure they really are worth investing in. This is why I will be doing some testing with the software first before I make a decision on whether or not you should invest. As always I will be totally open with my results and show you how I have used the program and if it is worth the time and money.

So to finish, ContentFX sounds great but I would be happier if you held on to your credit card for a while and let me test it for you.
