Automating web site production Is HyperVRE
the answer?
By C-Vanci
The
concept of putting web site production on steroids has been tried
many times and dismally failed most of the time. The very
idea of automating the production of a hundred or so pages, cramming
them with search engine happy content and affiliate advertising
to produce instant revenue, is a pipe dream and doomed to failure
by most that attempt it. Primarily because although the
search engine is satisfied, the visitors it drags in are not! Who
wants to arrive at a site stuffed with a load of gibberish and
advertising? Certainly NOT the person who has just clicked
on your site listed in the Google listings hoping to find some
decent content about the subject of interest.
There
is a growing army of programme's out there that will design, populate
with affiliate ads and cram loads of double-dutch content derived
from other sites into a nice new website for you. ALL AUTOMATICALLY!!
However,
most of them are nothing more than glorified doorway page programme's
and we all know, or should, that is one way to be in Google today
and permanently banned tomorrow!
REMEMBER - The most effective position on a page for
any advertising is the top left and side. So always place your most
profitable PPC or affiliate code here.
REMEMBER - Borders don't sell. When you place any ads,
especially Google or Amazon, ensure you make the 'border'
and 'background' colours to the exact same as your page background.
Also change the text, font or link colour codes to that of your site.
This creates a blended look to the advert and therefore diminishes
the visitors conception of it as an advert. People click interesting
links NOT adverts.
REMEMBER - Avoid repetitive animated banners in the prime
selling zone at top left. Psychologically visitors hate it or at least
find it damned annoying and will hardly ever click on it. While a simple
piece of hyperlinked bold and coloured text like' 50% Off Boots Today'
works fantastic.
REMEMBER - The more discrete your adverts are, the more
you can pack in and the more your visitors will like your site as a
result and that will make you more money because they will innocently
click on more of them!
So
what's the answer? We deliberated on this question and its
possible solutions for several months. Spending hours of trial
and error in turning all these 'instant success' programme's upside
down and inside out. We sniffed around places like Syndk8
Black Hat Seo Forums which is an absolute mine of useful
info and visited most of the would be vendors of suitable software
found by sifting through countless pages at Google. Eventually
we arrived at two possible contenders for truly useful software, Generation3c and HyperVRE and
designated the rest to the bin as totally useless. We then
spent the past few weeks experimenting with both these solutions
and here are the hard facts.
Generation3c is
an 'in house' piece of software that can do some remarkable things. However,
the inherent failure of most British businesses to grasp new developments
on the Internet and go with the flow, firmly rules them out. Unless
of course you don't mind hosting your new site with them, in which
case you get to use their software. Generation3c has
one other major failing. The value of their automatic content
grabbing is limited to places like Wikipedia and All the
web. And that's practically useless in providing commercial content
of interest to any visitor, although great for search engine ranking.
And as we all should by now know, next to the King of 'backlinks',
'content' is Queen. However, the ability to include a wide range
of affiliate coding's into the pages it produces is excellent. So
if your looking to produce a website full of useless content that
no one will bother reading, and don't mind having to host your site
with them, head over to 3c now and don't bother reading any further.
On
the other hand we have HyperVRE.
which is downloadable and installs as a stand alone piece of software
that anyone can use. You don't have to host with them, kiss
there backside or even like them. There is no crafty adware
built in and best of all the basic version is totally FREE! You can
actually download, use and have a website up and running in a few
hours. As for support, well second to none. I communicated
with them several times about various niggles and not only received
a polite and informative answer almost immediately from a chappy
called Brad, but also an updated piece of software that now did exactly
as I wanted. Now in my books, that's what I call support! But
that's the reason we prefer to host and buy software from the states,
their mentality is to encourage and promote, whereas here in the
UK? well I wont go there except to say they are firmly entrenched
more in self importance than promoting new concepts to others, especially
with Internet technology.
So
what does HyperVRE do? Well
the site you are at this moment viewing was produced entirely with HyperVRE as
was some of our other sites like Motorbility and
a much simpler design at 777win . And,
after setting up the templates with integrated affiliate advertising, Google
adsense, Yahoo, Amazon, Clickbank etc
etc, HyperVRE produced
these sites in around 30 seconds!! Five minutes later they
were not only uploaded but sitemaped by Free
Site Map Generator, verified and submitted to Google and
earnt their first revenue the very next day. Now that's what
I call web site production on steroids!!
At
this stage I suggest you nip over to HyperVRE's website
and download yourself a free copy here. Also
grab the excellent video tutorials here and
start experimenting. Then come back here and continue reading to
learn the tips on how you can take HyperVRE to
the next level and produce stunning web sites that start earning
money for you from day one.
Second Part: Taking HyperVRE to the next level
I assume you have already downloaded a free copy of HyperVRE
and played around with it some. If not go here and
do it now, it is free after all.
Now, if you like lots of hype and sales pitch then HyperVRE's website
gives you a belly full. But that's the American way and goes
with have a nice day. The fact is, it works and does what it
says on the box! And, as we all know from bitter experience,
not many programme's do that. Take Windows for example!!
Add to that the superb after sales support and ongoing development,
you really feel part of a community of like minded people encouraging
you to make money.
So what's the secret? There is none. Just plain common
sense, a little imagination and ability to use an industry standard
web package like Dreamweaver or the like. Even if you
are a seasoned web developer, a little help from HyperVRE will
add a new dimension to your site production and a lot of money into
your pocket.
Step One: Make a template. To be cross browser
compatible you cant beat bog standard tables. Create a 3 row
table with a header, middle and footer, ensure to set its width to
100% and not 'pixel width'. Or you end up with one of them 'postage
stamp' sites on larger monitor screens. Then create a 3 column table
in the middle part, giving say 20%, 75%, and 20% width to the columns. The
side columns are for links and affiliate advertising, while the middle
is for content. You can always insert another table within
the middle column if you want to split up and align other snippets
or images with the content HyperVRE will place there.
If you fancy a ready made template then nip over to Fabhosts and
look through hundreds available for free. Of utmost importance is
to type in a suitable title along with meta description and keywords
in the header section, ensuring to include the most relevant keywords.
Also make sure you include one of VRE's #CHILD_KEYWORDS# codes
in the head section as later on you will globally add a comment ( <!--
--> ) to the pages and then globally cut and past the keywords
produced by VRE into this comment. This little trick works
wonders with search engine bots.
Its also a good idea to globally include the same comment in the footer
section, as search engines pay great respect to keywords towards the end of
the page. Other things to include in the template are a few 'spacer' gif's.
While this can be the standard 1x1 pixel, do not call it 'spacer.gif'. Give
it a keyword name. For example if your site is about shoes, then call the tiny
gif's. something like 'shoes.gif' And, don't forget to give the gif's a text
description, again using keywords and set its border to '0'. Liberally dot
them around the template page,ensuring to put one in the page footer. Result
= more 'brownie points' awarded by the search engine bots.
Step Two: Research the keywords you are using.
A great piece of SEO software to help you with this and about everything
else you may need to get your latest masterpiece up in the search
engine charts, is WebCEO and
yep, you guessed, its non adware and free! We have used it for
over a year now and can definitely rate it as the best SEO software
available. What HyperVRE does
for automating web site production, WebCEO does
for automating submission to the major search engines.
Visit their site here and
judge for yourself or simply download it for free here.
I wont go into the other facilities that HyperVRE offers
like inserting RSS feeds etc, as the manual is quite simple and easy to follow.
If you have not already done so I recommend viewing the small manual here and
sacrificing a tree twig by printing it out, especially as a handy reference
for the # # codes. Though on the matter of using RSS feeds, please do remember,
this causes pages to be saved as .php and not .html. Due to search engine technology
.html is much more search engine friendly and you will achieve considerably
higher rankings with a site using html pages as opposed to php. So unless you
really want to, leave the RSS feeds for now.
Step Three: Populate the template.
HyperVRE has a list of codes that can be inserted anywhere you chose
within the template. Each one of these codes produces differing effects. They
are simple and straight forward like #ARTICLE_CONTENT# which automatically
places the content HyperVRE mines.
Remember, that you can highlight any of these codes and set all the usual parameters
like font, size, colour, div etc. You could set say #ARTICLE_AUTHOR# to bold,
size 3 and colour orange and #ABOUT_AUTHOR# to size 2 colour brown. The content HyperVRE places
there will follow the rules you have set.
Always try to place HyperVRE's #
# codes in places that will integrate them into the rest of the pages
design. As example, if you place #GROUP_LINK# code in the right
hand column, place an appropriate affiliate text ad that looks like
a link before and after the # # code, then set the entire column
to the same font face size and colour. Spend some time playing around
with the template designs and then let HyperVRE produce
the site, it only takes a few seconds. Then delete the site, play
around some more, build the site again, delete the site..., until
you feel happy with the visual look and feel your template produces.
Step Four: The content.
This is where HyperVRE leaves
other software in the prehistoric ages. Not only can it automatically pull
in some mighty good and readable content off the net and then by magic,instantly
implant it throughout your entire new shiny site exactly where you tell it
to, but you can add your own content text files as well!
There are tons of free to republish articles about any subject you could
think of available. All it takes is a simple copy and past to add your own
content rich articles into HyperVRE which will then automatically build the
pages with them in. Try going to Google here for
free articles and simply take your pick. Please do remember though, be
nice and include the Author details in the #ARTICLE_AUTHOR# and #ABOUT_AUTHOR#
tags provided in HyperVRE.
Step Five: Earning cash with affiliate ads.
If you haven't already done so, its time to nip over to Google and
join their adsense click scheme and while at it, sign up with Yahoo, Amazon and Clickbank.
If you don't already have accounts with affiliate scheme sites like Commission
Junction or Trade Doubler, go there now and get one for free. There
are other sites, but these are the biggest and certainly the best with a huge
range of companies offering affiliation covering virtually every product both
Stateside and in Europe.
HyperVRE has
room to include 3 PPC (Pay Per Click) code snippets #PPC_01# - #PPC_03#,
which it will then populate throughout the site in the position you
have placed the # # code. If, like us you have many different affiliate
advertising and PPC codes, you can 'hard wire' some of them into the
template in the positions you chose, in addition to using HyperVRE's #PPC#
code to insert others.
Step Six: Finishing touches.
Once you have the site the way you want and are happy with HyperVRE's result,
its time to carry out any global operations on the sites pages. The more time
you spend in designing the template, the less work now involved. In total honesty
and putting hype aside, our first site produced with HyperVRE (this
one), took two days of experimentation and getting the feel of the programme,
another day of producing several copies of the site then going back to the
template and fine tuning the design, about 30 seconds to produce the final VRE site
then another couple of hours to globally clean up and add/modify the pages
with Dreamweaver.
While the second site (Motorbility),
took a day from start to upload. It now takes around two hours to build a 100
page plus site. Which is long short of the weeks and months it used to take.
The end result? More free time to explore less dreary tasks such as new ideas,
more time at the beach and considerably increased cash in the pocket. Its the
wisest move we have made since entering the commercial web site business five
years ago.
THATS IT -ALL DONE!
Final point. You may ask why I took the time and patience
to write this article for free. To put it simply, I am totally
enthused by HyperVRE and
the assistance it has provided to bring my own internet marketing
strategy out of the dark ages and into a much brighter future. Its
simply one of the best pieces of software I've discovered in the
past five years and the basic version is absolutely FREE -
without ads or strings attached. I take my hat off to the developers. I
also felt the need to show how HyperVRE can
be used to produce professional looking sites that make real money
instantly, by taking just a little more care and thought into using
it as opposed to the 'Mickey mouse' search engine spamming that most
people associate this type of software with. I would like to think
that the many sites we produce with HyperVRE and
those you hopefully also produce, will discount the 'poo poo' thrown
by the old fashioned 'stick in the mud's' who still spend months
to produce one site and years before they make any serious money
- if ever. With HyperVRE you
can literally make income tomorrow! Not next year or even next month,
but TOMORROW! So what you waiting for? If you
are still unsure, then get out of the web site business, your about
to become either extinct like the dinosaurs or stay as poor as a
church mouse. For all you affiliate lovers out there, yes I have
included an affiliate ID for HyperVRE in
the link so we can track the copies downloaded and where from, that's
all. The other links in this article are untracked.
