I need to vent here!
My last couple of posts I wrote about the Affiliate Mage System and Master Mage Systems recently launched by Greg Jacobs. Well the launch is out and honestly I was very shocked and I feel I need to apologize for adding to the hype.
When I found out how much he is charging for this system my jaw just dropped. Priced at $1297 I could not believe the audacity. Even with a $300 discount using coupon code “LetMeIn” only brings this down to $997. Still this is way way too much! Granted it looks like a good product but it is way overpriced. I’ll explain why.
Almost everything in this package can be purchased with existing services or plugins and will cost you a tenth of what this is priced at!
So today I’m going to review some alternative ways to autoblog and add some WordPress Automation to your business with out it costing you a thousand dollars.
Firepow
Firepow is a great tool for managing hundreds of blogs. Andrew Hansen was one of the first to do this and continues to deliver a high quality product! Firepow allows you to quickly build an armada of WordPress blogs each prebuilt with a nice complement of plugins designed to optimize, SEO, and promote your niche. If you haven’t had a chance to check it out I encourage you to do so. Price on Firepow is about $100 bucks/ month
This is in a nut shell a suite of wordpress modules that fit together to do almost everything that the Master Mage System can do. Autopost articles to your blog, translate articles to produce unique content, auto embed Flickr images in to each post, auto embed your Amazon, ebay, Clickbank affiliate products into your posts, auto emend YouTube videos, create Yahoo answers posts, and a whole lot more. I havent fully tested this one yet but so far it looks very promising 
Price is about $140 bucks.
Rolling Your Own
There are certainly more ways to skin this cat and accomplish more for less. There at many different plugins out there that will allow you to make up your own combinations to automate much of your blogs. If you own PHBay, PHPOstock, Autoblogger, CARP, Caffeinated Content, etc., the list goes on and on… you can set yourself up with a very nice auto-blogging system that will make you a nice chunk of change. Many Many Internet Businesses have been built on these exact tools and have done very very well.
Just please remember, no matter what anyone tells or what you read in a sales letter, there are no push button successes. They all take work.
What kind of WordPress Automation have you put together on your sites? What tools are you using to make your life easier and to help you make money. Share your ideas, we would love to hear it!

The best blog automation tools unfortunately aren’t free. Of the tools I’ve experimented with, WP-Robot in my opinion is the best tool you get can. Personally though blog automation tools will only help you so far. You need to have good quality unique content on your website to gain any trust with Google and the search engines. With out unique content your site or blog ends up looking too spammy and you never receive the traffic you’re looking for.
Thanks for the comment!
