It is not everything that I hoped that it would be, but it does collect links and add them to your posts.

I have all but quite fussing with the interface except in the rare instance that the generated keyword list is too short. I had tried deleting various keywords. It now appears that the only control left over the plug-in is to add some keywords to the list produced by DLE.

This software was developed as an introduction to a product, auto content cash, that the team has just launched. While the plug does gather links there is no manual control as was mentioned on the download page. I suspect that the intention when developing the plug was to give the manual control as stated. The plug-in needed to be fully automatic for use with the various auto-blogging packages including their new offering. This means that the meaningful search is done after the publish button is clicked. What is really needed is a manual/automatic switch in the options. This could default to automatic, but give us the option to manually select the blogs to which we wish to link.

In using the plug-in I have seen some immediate results. Most of the immediate results that you will see are the better blog operators visiting your blog to see who the heck linked to their blog. This is low quality traffic, but it is a traffic boost. I have seen the trackback on a few blogs and they have all been nofollow. Anyone interested can still click on the link, so there will be some incremental traffic produced. With enough of these scattered around there could be a long term traffic boost. How targeted that traffic is remains to be seen, but could be improved with the ability to hand pick the links. It is too bad that is not currently possible.

I discontinued using the plug on this blog and any of my blogs where I am producing most of the content. If I could hand pick the links I would use the plug-in here. I do have it installed on several blogs where I am populating a good bit of the content with iSnare articles. I have found that they have a good automated content distribution system, and most of the articles are of reasonably good quality. The resolution of the articles sent is not as good as it could be because of the limited number of categories, but they do not auto-post, so you do have control of what you print. This is the best distribution system that I have found to date, but I have not searched long and hard. If they could set it up with some keyword filters it could be significantly improved. I intend to set up two more blogs using this system this evening.

Do you know of other content distribution systems? Please tell us in a comment.

I have tested the plug to some extent and have some complaints regarding the way that it operates. There appears to be no control over the blogs to which a post links. The plug-in initiates a search when you hit the publish function and actually does the full treatment at that time no matter what you have told it you wish to do. Deleting blogs in the plug-in grid does no good because the final search is carried out after you hit the publish button.

This plug-in would be fine for an auto-blogger who does not want to mess with the content at all. If you are generating original content and would like to display only relevant blog posts this is not the plug-in for you.

I peeked at the net through Google’s eyes and do not see much in the way of negative comment. There does not appear to be enough experience with the plug for glowing comments either. While looking at some commentary I ran across a free WP auto-blogging plug-in. I think that I will go and try the two of them out together. If I hit the mother load I will let you know! Off to do a little research.

This plug-in searches the web for relevant content on other blogs and adds links to your post. It sends a pingback to the other blog. Some of those blogs will provide a trackback to your post giving you a backlink to your site. For now I will just be installing the plug on this site. I already have KeyWordLuv and Do Follow plugs installed to encourage quality comments on my posts. I do moderate all posts but will approve nearly anything that adds value to the site and does not link to things that Google does not like.

I will keep an eye on the results and give you a review in this blog at some point in the future. Check back or subscribe to the RSS feed to keep up to date.

Do you think that this would be of value to you? The Site offering the free download for the Deep Link engine is http://autocontentcash.com/dle1/ Check it out and leave a comment with your thoughts.

I had mentioned the update to my sister site Before You Buy a Website in a previous post. I have taken the articles in the WebSite Basics section and produced my first PDF ebook. The PDF is available as a FREE download on the site. Opt-in to my mailing list is optional on this PDF. While I would appreciate a sign-up to my list it is not required. Just click the download link at the bottom of the page.
