Hopefully, you have glanced at my other review where I took a look at automatically creating accounts at the various web 2.0 websites in-built to Magic Submitter. Account creation was a breeze, and I didn't even have to click on confirmation emails. This time, I'm having a look at the real value of this program, submitting content.
For a brief review, Magic Submitter can use up to three browser windows for multi-threaded swiftness and you can employ the 3rd party CAPTCHA solving service decaptcher. For this review I opted to use the 3rd party service and three browser windows. This arrangement will not produce the highest success rate, but this is the way nearly everybody will wish to use this system - fully automatic and fast.
Nearly everyone is familiar with social bookmarking. There are dozens of social bookmark web sites that allow users to share links to their favorite websites. Magic Submitter has 25 in-built bookmark sites. Bookmarking went easily. I was utilizing decaptcher to decipher the CAPTCHA images and utilized multiple browsers. One note on success rates. I was utilizing the auto retry feature, which automatically skips a website that has 3 failed tries. If you disable this feature you can see what the errors are and possibly fix them.
Article directories are among my preferred techniques of website marketing and syndication, so I hoped for a home run from Magic Submitter. My hopes were not dashed, but the submission process wasn't flawless. Once again, I watched the submissions unfold. The main setback I encountered was websites reported that my account had not been verified. If you read my Magic Submitter review of account creation you understand that I had Magic Submitter validate all email account confirmations. So, I made a decision to manually get into the e-mail utilized for the accounts, and all email links appeared to have been clicked on. There were a few article directories that never sent the e-mail confirmation. I clicked on the links that were present and a few of the sites listed that the account had expired, but a few were confirmed so I was able to present my article.
Next on our Magic Submitter review is Blogs. There are many free blogging services on the internet, and they are a great way to syndicate content and build links to your sites. I achieved an 80% success rate with blog submission. There were a few websites that said my blog did not exist, or I had to create the blog before continuing. I'm sure with a little manual actions the success rate would have been much higher.
RSS submission went pleasingly, with just one site not operational. I did have to manually intervene with 2 of the websites, due to modifications that had not been corrected in Magic Submitter. One of which was solving a CAPTCHA and the other was actually a successful submission, but Magic Submitter didn't "see" the success text.
Onto Video Submission. I attempted submitting a small flash video with very mixed results. Make sure you only use one browser window throughout video submission, or you will experience huge failures. I was utilizing one window, but there was a problem with the submission window opening the folder to submit the video then getting stuck. Magic Submitter would hang and never submit the video. I spoke with Alexandr about this subject and he said it would be fixed in a soon to be released update. If you set the video timeout to 30 seconds you can progress Magic Submitter to go on, but the outcome will be less than a 50% success rate.
To wrap up this Magic Submitter Review, I would need to say that it went acceptably. The video submission could have gone better, but maybe it was my fault in some way.
