Yes, I understand that, but there should be a limit in duplicate articles, how about 30 max submission?

Here's the current ALN 2.0 feature list:
- show full domains PR in the member area
- add mass blog uploads
- add mass article adding and scheduling feature (add 10, 20, 30 or schedule one same article in the next 10, 20, 30 day)
- add duplicate content checker (max 30 duplicate per article)
- add spelling checker (no grammar check)

We will also create a user voting system similar to uservoice so that all users can vote to agree/disagree for a feature to be added or not.

Thanks,
Maulana

For 2.0, it would be great if you could get the scheduling system to work correctly..

At the moment, you can submit articles one day and then have articles that were submitted 2 weeks later going "live" before the original ones.

I'm not a coder but I can't imagine it would be too hard for the script to keep track of when articles were submitted and have them go out based on when they were submitted.

Firstly, thank you for discussing this with us.  I realise things have been a little heated in this thread from both sides and I appreciate that you are working with us.

Thanks to your spintax protection, each article has to be spun to a certain degree at least.  This means that unique articles are hitting the blogs.

30 submissions is 450 articles (2% of 20,000 blogs)
50 submissions is 750 articles (3.75% of 20,000 blogs)
100 submissions is 1,500 articles (7.5% of 20,000 blogs)

Personally I would like to see 100 submissions, but I accept that as a service provider I am bias towards making my life a little easier.  I actually don't use 100 submissions now and the other service providers I do know don't use 100 submissions either.  I don't know if personal users that buy spin ready articles use them over and over again.

What about 50?  This is sort of a middle ground.  It affects less than 5% of the blogs.  Just seems like a nice round figure.

We are on the same page it seems, I think 50 should be ONLY for SEO provider accounts.  And there should be a very high spin rate min etc.

And what about the category issue? I created categories, but the received posts arent related to these categories at all.

Think "categories" is just to make blog look less spammy. There's no provision for articles to be posted by category that I'm aware of.

I think 30 submissions is fair enough. Same article goes to 450 blogs.

Do you guys have tips on how to randomize the link location? Like make LINk1 in the first paragraph in one version and in the second in another version?

There is no way to do this, unless you do it buy hand.. It is not needed though.

+ 1  On this, 50 seems like a great number!

I give this the +1 also.  50 is more than fine....

[trafficmarshals]

Bit of a noob question but I have submitted articles, the status is live, but posted total is 0? Has something gone wrong or have they not sent yet?

Hi, please wait a few more hour, it will be dripped at the rate of 5 per day

Hi Pat, sure we will fix it too

So everyone agrees with 50 max submission per article?
Honestly, I'm still thinking that 30 submission is better

As a member of ALN since the time it came into being I personally favor 30 submission if article is well spun though (Hope there is some checks to insure this). More than that will leave some kind of foot prints like similar/duplicate content wich is not good for the network in the long run. Thats only my opinion though.

All Maulana has to do in increase the spintax brackets min to make the articles more unique, there is no current way to submit an un-spun article so there is not a big issue right now with duplicate content.  

The 50 limit should only be for the highest account for SEO Providers, most of us are trying to get the max benefits for our clients so the majority are not going to submit something that is going to cause us issues.

Edited by trupinus, 23 February 2012 - 10:16.

I favor ANYTHING which ups the quality of the network, be it smaller amounts of "allowed" articles or whatever.
Some networks allow ONE article per day..and they are not even bad!

Seriously, i would think it would benefit ALN to get rid of all PR0 (if not already done) and PR1...and limit submissions & footprints.

ALTERNATIVELY....there could be a new "tier" structure with people as always submitting to PR0-PRX?  (because pr0 and pr1 CAN and are good for link diversity and a natural link profile) - but at a LATER point in link building you need to focus more on higher PR or increase your rate of links built on higher PR sites. This could also be done in a way that new people (for example) start out on a lower tier (say, PR0-PR3)..but then later on get upgraded or automatically put into the "advanced" tier which opens up PR4+...after they are submitting good content for a while already.

Just some random idea

[AdamWB]

I'm with George - anything that ups the quality of the network - I don't care if it's 1 submission if it makes my links stick longer before getting deindexed. The way it is now..you have to continually submit to ALN to avoid getting negative link velocity.
