    This has been a long time coming, but better late then never, right? 😉

    I’m super excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Spin Rewriter to allow you to automatically generate spintax {|} for your bookmark descriptions.  This enhancement will definitely save you time (and $ if you currently pay for a spinning tool).

    Why is spintax needed?

    Spin Tags are used to dynamically convert a single piece of text into many unique variations.  The idea is to use psynonyms throughout the text which are then ‘spun‘.  SocialAdr uses { for the start tag | for the separator and } for the end tag.

    By using spintax in your bookmark description field, every time your web page is submitted to a social site, a unique variation of the description text is generated, which means you get more variety and more natural-looking social buzz.  Think of it this way … if every reference to your site says the exact same thing, like “Hey check out Bob’s plumbing, best plumber ever!” don’t you think that will look suspicious both to search engines as well as the social site owners?  The more variety, the better!

    Here’s how it works

    1)  Go to the Add Bookmark page – http://socialadr.com/pg/bookmarks/add

    2)  Enter any text in the “Description” field

    Description - Plain Text

    3)  Click the new blue “Generate Spintax” button

    4) Marvel at the neat-o spintax that is automatically generated!

    If you’d like, you can then click the “Spin Preview” button:

    And you’ll get to see a unique variation:

    Pretty cool stuff!

    We’ve just rolled out some updates, mostly related to making the user interface easier to use.

    1. Force long-string text wrapping for bookmark descriptions on the Share Queue page
    2. Add tooltip popup messages on Add Bookmark page, so it’s more obvious what each field should be used for.Keywords tooltip
    3. Tweet popup window had fields that were expanding past the edge of the window.  This is fixed.
    4. Bug fix when adding a bookmark in Easy mode and the description field wasn’t long enough, it was possible to be switched to Advanced mode without wanting that.

    We’ve just rolled out an update to the Add Bookmark page, known as Easy Mode.  We’ve had a lot of people request this, as they found the process of manually writing the Title field, including spintax {|}, to be overwhelming.

    This new mode will allow you to enter only the bare minimum fields while adding a bookmark, and the system will auto-generate the rest.

    SocialAdr - Add Bookmark - Easy Mode

    If you click the “Easy” button, it’ll switch to “Advanced” mode, which is the same ‘ol functionality that you’re accustomed to.

    SocialAdr - Add Bookmark - Advanced Button

    In “Easy” mode, simply paste a list of your keywords in the new Keywords field, one per line.  Enter your primary keyword on the 1st line.


    Here’s how the old fields are being auto-populated:

    Title

    The hidden Title field typically becomes the anchor text for any social media backlinks you’ll receive.

    The approximate weighted values of the auto-generated Title field are:

    • 40% keywords
    • 40% URL and its variations (non-http, http, domain only)
    • 20% generic terms

    These values were chose in order for your backlink profile to appear as natural as possible.

    Tags

    The hidden Tags field is generated from your Keywords.

    Submission Rate

    This field will be hidden in “Easy Mode” and defaulted to “Normal”.

    Submission Limit

    This field will be hidden in “Easy Mode” and defaulted to <blank> (no limit).

    Microblog Message

    Your Keywords are used to generate the microblog message, using spintax {|}.


    After adding a bookmark in “Easy” mode, you can go back and edit it in “Advanced” mode, to have access to every field again, and full control over all its properties.

    Let us know how you like it!

     

     
  • SocialAdr v2.742 Released

    Here’s the latest SocialAdr updates:

    • New bookmarks will be moved to the front of the Share Queue.  This way users should feel more satisfied that the system is working sooner.
    • A validation popup message was added to the Add Bookmark page to ensure that spintax {|} is used in the Title field.  It’s becoming more and more important to vary the Title text, because it forms your anchor text for backlinks, and Google penalizes sites that have a lot of identical anchor text, as it looks spammy.
    • We started beta testing on a new module that will allow you to automatically create Bookmarks from RSS feeds.  If all goes well we’ll be opening it up to more users sometime next year.
    • We added a couple new social media sites.
    • We’ve created a new Social Engage service where we’ll manage your social accounts (Facebook, Twitter, Google+), post regular updates, engage users, and build better relationships with your followers and fans.
     
  • You can now speed up your social media submissions

    Earlier this year we gave you the ability to slow down the rate your bookmarks are submitted to the social sites.  Well, now we’ve given you the ability to speed up your submissions!

    You’ll see on the Add Bookmark page and the My Bookmarks page a new menu item in the “Submission Rate” menu…Fast!

    Disclaimer: there’s no guarantee that the rate you set will be exactly what you receive, because of the human element of SocialAdr. These are just estimates.

    Here’s what the settings mean:
    Drip = Once per week
    Slow = Once every 2 days
    Normal = 2-3 times per day
    Fast = 8 times per day (costs 50% more credits)

    We also added some more variability to the delays, for example Drip used to be set to every 7 days.  But now it’s either every 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 days.  This will make the submissions appear even more natural.

    This new feature is v2.741
