Blog Submitter Pro Review

Eric’s Tips: Edition #5

Today I decided to bite the bullet and pick up a copy of Blog Submitter Pro (regrettably that’s not even an affiliate link since they’ve temporarily discontinued the affiliate program). I was meaning to buy it a couple months ago, but got really busy with other projects, etc. Boy was that a mistake! Back then, the price was only $149 and I could have bought it from my own affiliate link which would have effectively made the price only $75! I should have heeded the warning at the bottom of the page that said they were going to raise the price. Today I paid $249 for the program. Ouch. It was a tough pill to swallow, knowing I could have had it for $75, but this time I’m heeding their warning because soon the price will be $349. Overall, the investment still makes good sense because I typically spend about double this amount just on paid clicks every day, so if the system brings me some targeted traffic it will be well worth it.

Basically this program allows you to mass-submit personalized comments to blogger.com blogs in such a way that you are not considered to be a spammer. I’m was tempted to keep this info to myself because this really is the kind of secret weapon you don’t want to share with your competitors, but I’ve decided to publicly review it here in my blog to provide some real “value” to my readers (yes all two of you).

First of all let me tell you this. Earlier in the day I made the mistake of buying a cheaper blog-comment-submitter for $50, thinking it would essentially do the same thing. Wrong! I couldn’t even use the cheaper program because it would be sure to piss off blog owners and could cause me to get banned by the search engines. I’m not going to mention any names because it’s not my style to bash products. It really doesn’t matter anyway, because there’s always going to be cheap imitations out there. Just take my advice and don’t buy the cheaper ones.

I’m going to conduct a public experiment to see how well this program works. For the experiment I’m going to see if I can boost the ranking of my personal blog. I’m going to use four criteria to judge the ranking:

#1) Google placement for the keyword ugly blog (no quotes). As you can see, this blog is currently #8 in the search results.

#2) Number of backlinks listed on Google. As you can see there are currently two links listed, one of them being from this site.

#3) Technorati rank. As you will see, this site is currently ranked 775,745 (1 link from 1 site), with 2 links in the last 30 days.

#4) Technorati “blog worth” button. As you can see, the current “value” of this blog is $1,129.08

Basically, I will be leaving a series of comments in other people’s blogs which link back to this blog. The ironic part about this experiment is that if those blog owners follow the link and read my blog they may see this experiment and realize that the comment was left using an automated system. That’s OK though because I have nothing to hide. I’ll be using the tool to the best of its ability to leave relevant, personalized comments which do not detract from the owner’s blog. I’ve also installed an automatic referral backlink script on my blog, so those blog owners will actually be getting a link back from me as well when someone clicks on the link in my comment.

I’ll provide an update as soon as I start seeing some results, and then give a final report probably in a couple months or so.
