free blog posting system

It’s official – our new free blog posting system is now open for business!
This post explains exactly how you can register your blog(s) with us to receive a constant stream of high-quality, niche-focused content.
However, to avoid overloading our systems, there are practical limits on the number of blogs that we can accept – once that limit has been reached, the facility to register new blogs with us will likely be withdrawn.
This new system is likely to be very popular and it’s therefore important that you act quickly to ensure your own blog(s) are in the system.
What this means for your blog, or any number of blogs that you control, is that you can receive a constant stream of high quality, niche-focused, human-reviewed content in the form of:

  • Free reprint articles – with a resource box at the end, containing some author information and a link or two to the author’s site; and/or
  • ‘Naked articles’ –  essentially these are free reprint articles that show as a normal post on your blog, without a resource box or other author attribution (hence, ‘naked’) and with a link or two within the body of the post. For all intents and purposes, they appear to anyone reading the blog as a post you have written yourself. (Will be available mid-November 2010)
The link(s) within the content represent the ‘value’ for the author of the content, i.e. this is how they stand to benefit by providing your blog with the content for free.
The good news is that these links benefit your blog too, simply because search engines like Google tend to give higher ranking to sites that link to other relevant resources … and because the content you receive will be relevant to your niche (which you set by specifying keywords, explained further below), the sites linked to from within the content are going to be other relevant websites.
Either type of content can come with varying levels of uniqueness (i.e. how different the content will be to other sites that the article is sent to) – you can determine the level of uniqueness you require for your blog, as further illustrated below.
To take advantage, all you need to do is to use SubmitYOURArticle.com’s Publisher Dashboard facility to register any number of blogs that you control, and start receiving high quality content based on your requirements direct to your blogs.
For each individual blog, you can:
  • Filter content specific for your niche by:
    • Setting categories you would like to receive content in
    • Setting the exact keywords you are looking for
    • Setting keywords you are looking to exclude
  • Set the minimum level of ‘uniqueness’ for the content you receive (effective from mid-November 2010)
  • Receive ‘naked articles’ only – these look like real blog posts, and do not look like free reprint articles (effective from mid-November 2010)
  • Decide whether you want content delivered to your blog to be published straight away, or left for you to manually approve
  • Decide if you want to be notified by email when content is sent to your blog
  • Pause and resume submissions to your blog at any time
  • And more!
Any of the above settings can be adjusted at any time.

Follow these instructions to set up your first blog:

1. Log In To The Publisher’s Dashboard

Log into the Publisher Dashboard (sign up here if you’re not already registered)

2. Select to Add a Blog

Select to add a blog from the drop-down – this will take you to the Add Blog page.

3. Turn XML-RPC ON For Your Blog

Log into your blog’s wp-admin facility (eg. http://www.yourblog.com/wp-admin) and click Settings > Writing.
Under ‘Remote Publishing’, check the XML-RPC checkbox:

4. Enter The Settings For Your Blog

Use the help information for each field to assist you in understanding what to enter.

It’s recommended that initially you leave the ‘Auto-approve articles’ option unchecked – as you get confident in the content you receive and have fine tuned it sufficiently, you can then check this box so that content is automatically published and requires very little day to day involvement form yourself.
It’s also recommended that you check the ‘Notify on Post’ option, at least initially, so that you’re able to quickly review content as it’s posted to your blog.
Regardless of whether this option is checked, the email address you provide with each blog is used to notify you in case there is an issue in posting to the blog, for example if we’re having technical difficulties reaching your blog.

5. Configure Your Blog To Receive Niche-Relevant Content

Broadly speaking, it will help at first if you keep the options as open as possible to start with so that you receive as much content as possible that’s relevant to your blog, and once you get a feel for the content you are receiving, fine tune it from that point.
For example, the higher the ‘Uniqueness’ setting, the less content you are likely to receive, simply because the articles we deliver will have varying levels of uniqueness, from none at all to relatively high levels.
It’s recommended at first to select all the categories in the ‘Categories required’ box, and use the ‘Keywords required’ field to fine tune the content you receive for your blog.
To do this, the following process is recommended:
a. Go to Google’s Keyword Tool
b. Enter your blog’s niche into the search box – for example, if your blog focuses on starting a blog, enter ‘start a blog’ into the search box:
Don’t worry too much about the exact phrase used – just enter one or two phrases that broadly describe your niche.
c. Click the Search button
d. Google then brings back 100 associated keywords – you’re now going to download all of these and enter these keywords into the Keywords Required field. Click Download > Download All – as shown:
e. Download as ‘CSV for Excel’ and open into Excel or an alternative spreadsheet application – if you don’t have Excel, you can for example import the CSV file into Google Docs (http://docs.google.com)
f. Once open as a spreadsheet, delete the top row (containing the column headers, like ‘Keyword’, etc.), and then select the first column and copy, for example:

g. Paste into the Keywords required field:

That’s really all you have to do – as you start to receive content, you may wish to refine this list of keywords required, and use the keywords excluded list if you start getting content you know you don’t want on your blog.
Please note that the keywords listed in either the keywords required or excluded fields are matched against any content we store for the article in question, so the title, article body, resource box(es), short description and the keywords that the author entered against the article.

6. Save Your Blog

Tick the box at the bottom to indicate your agreement, and click Submit.

7. Verify Your Email If Necessary

It may be necessary to verify your email address before your blog is activated in our network – if so, you will see an appropriate message on the screen and will need to check your mailbox according to the instructions provided.
As soon as your email is verified, your blog will become Active.

8. Wait to Receive Content, and Fine Tune …

Note that content to your blog may start off slowly and then begin to accelerate after a few days or more – this is because articles already in distribution will not be scheduled to submit to your blog, only articles that are approved after your blog has been entered into the system will be scheduled to submit to your blog.
Any changes you make to your content requirements are activated as soon as they are entered into the system, so become effective immediately.
Once you start to receive content, you can start to fine tune the content you receive so that it’s exactly on target. To do this, just click to Edit Node Settings via the Publisher Dashboard home page.
Note that the more restrictive you make your requirements, the less content you are likely to receive, but you’ll begin to get a feel for the balance that is right for your blog.

9. Enter More Blogs

You can enter as many blogs as you like into the system in the same way, using your same Publisher Dashboard account.
So you can for example create new blogs on new domains, and then set them up in the Publisher Dashboard to start receiving niche-relevant quality content on auto-pilot. You can start to monetize them with advertising, through building up email lists, selling products relevant to the niche, and so on.
You can also use the content we supply to supplement content you already produce for existing blogs – for example, an additional few articles a month might be just what you need to start generating some momentum for your blog.

10. Spread The Word!

Auto blog posting systemOther blog owners are going to love you for telling them about this exciting service – help spread the word by mailing your list or telling others you know who might be interested!
If you’re a member of SubmitYOURArticle.com, you’ll also benefit from this by helping to get as many blogs as possible to join our network.
All you need to do is send them to our new sister site, http://www.autoblogit.com – here’s a sample email you can send, although please adapt it to your own ‘voice’ and just use it as the basis of your own message:
Subject: Quality, unique content for your blog (on auto-pilot)
Subject: Exciting service feeds blogs with QUALITY, unique content
Subject: Feed your blog with QUALITY, unique content … automatically
Hi {FIRSTNAME}
I’ve just plugged into this service myself, and couldn’t wait to tell you about it … basically it feeds your blog(s) with quality, human-reviewed, unique content on auto-pilot.
Best of all, it’s currently 100% fre-e.
I’ve set up one of my own blogs with it, just took a few minutes, was very straightforward, and now I can sit back and look forward to a stream of quality content automatically populating my blog.
I’ve seen other services where you can basically fill your blog with snippets of content from here and there, but it never feels like ‘real’ blog content (eg. real blog posts), the quality is often dire … and it comes across as very ‘spammy’.
Frankly this is NOTHING like that at all.
Go here to find out more:

No, this isn’t an affiliate link, I won’t make me a cent telling you about this – but I can guarantee YOU are going to find this very valuable.
Ever dreamed of hands-free blogging? This is it:

Enjoy!
