Mass Article Control – Just Another Article Spinner?

Author: Dan Blackburn | Filed under: Recomendations & Reviews

I am sure you have heard the buzz about “Article Mass Control”. It looks pretty awesome doesn’t it? But is it just another article spinner with a powerful name.

Everyone online heard about Frank Kerns “Mass Control”. I think it’s really clever for Adeel and Bobby to chose Mass Article Control for their new article spinning and submission software. If they had called it anything else, there is no way they would be getting the buzz they are now. Despite the fact that the sales page is well done and the Article Mass Control software looks convincing.

You know what my view of these article spinner software is?  As someone who moderates all the content coming into the article directory at article content king, I hate them. Anything that encourages authors to submit articles without reading them, makes my job harder.

I also doubt whether “spinning” an article is actually necessary to avoid any penalties. I’ve never seen a “duplicate content filter” and strongly doubt that it exists. After all I have seen the same article of mine occupy 7 out of the top 10 spots on the first page of Google before now, all linking to exactly the same article published at different sites. Even now, about 12 months later I am still 3 out of the top 10 results, for exactly the same article.

Am I going to give to a link to these results? NO! If I did that I would have to work a lot harder to keep them and I would lose money! When you show people your rankings they automatically think “I want that” and all of a sudden you do not have the ranking anymore.

Take my word for it or don’t, the duplicate content filter does not exist or if it does, I have never seen it.

Does that mean that if you DO spin your articles you WONT get more traffic? NO! You probably will as your articles will be able to rank for different keyword phrases at different sites. It makes sence to submit slightly different articles to each article directory, whether it makes sence to get a software to write them for you is another thing.

Article Mass Control claims that it will create legible “spun” articles and submit them to all the top article sites for you. If that is true, then this will be a fantastic tools for your marketing arsenal. If however, it’s like all the other article spinners we encounter (and know about it) Article Mass Control is just going to make my job as content moderator harder.

I really hope that Article Mass Control will be an article spinner that we encounter and do not know about. If you use it, I would like to hear from you after we publish one of your “spun” articles or indeed your article was rejected for being gibberish

  1. I do believe you are absolutely correct. Some really bad spinners are extremely funny like the one about how to take care of a baby..

    You must feed it good health food when its ready, make sure pants are kept clean and dry, change paper or cloth wipes at regular times with ointment to avoid skin rash and loud cries, take it walking or try feeding the rocking chair back and forth for gentle soothing to sleep…

    Think I made that up? I still have those crazy robot spun articles if anyone wants a few — what category would you like?

    I did buy this MAC and MAS for the reasons you said plus 2 more:

    1) I’m hoping I can edit before submitting – I would NEVER, ever submit articles in the blind – I’m way too controlling for that.

    2) The Ewen Chia – 3 FREE Lifetime Memberships that cost $27 $47 $47 per mo if you had to pay for them – too much temptation to resist – all 3!?…had to do it, hence the name: thriftgirl62

    I will submit an article to you as I am a paying (maybe too affordable!) member of Article King…however I am also a Professional Procrastinator… but I’m working on my problem daily!!

    I will make it a point to submit a MAC Article because I think its a good idea to update your reviews – always make them complete.

    It shows you verify the results instead of posting opinions based on profit..or personal taste. We need more Consumer Reports for the Web.

  2. hi there

    As you say Article Mass Control is just another “spinner” and theguys just happen to have picked a name that is already well know in the internet marketing circles. I wonder what Frank Kern thinks about it though. If it were me I would be “slightly Unhappy” at the choice of name.

    However when i looked today they had sold over 2500 copies so they will now be able to afford to laught all the way to the bank !!

    I am also a firm believer in the fact there is NO duplicate content filter. Ask your self this question If there is a duplicate content filter, how come all the news sites and press release sites are on the top of all the search engine rankings? and furthemore , when you look at the rest of the search you will always find several exact copies of the articles or press release from several other sources….MMM duplicate content filter !! I think not.

    But I also think that “spinning” an article is a good thing, providing it is done well and reads well. On the odd occasion when I do use article spinners I always try to make at least a 50% content change. This then ensures that the article will pass virtually any moderation tests.
