OK OK, I don't own this. I know you guys have said you automate your daily routines with it, but what do you guys use it for, specifically?
With the recording option, can you record your actions and generate a script that will run with a block of urls? Macros only? Is it buggy? I guess I'm lacking an explanation of how complex it will go AND time investment/ROI.
PS- I've never used an affiliate link on this board in my life, but someone stick their link in there for hooking people up this much!
I use WinAuto a lot, but my biggest achievement with it is my article marketing system.
The input is a properly "spun" article and the result is submission of a unique version with LSI anchor texts in the resource boxes to the 75 or so of top article sites on the web.
Total submission time < 1hr.
It works in conjunction with iMacros (free firefox plugin). I wouldn't say it was buggy, but nothing stays the same as long as you would like, and each time a site changes their html, it can cause a problem.
Yes, it took me a lot of effort to create the system (working a couple hours a day, just over a month).... with a lot of that being the learning curve. The latest version (I started with the previous one) has much better examples, so learning curve should be sped up a lot.
I started with simple macros to prepare my computer for working on certain projects.
For example if I'm working on my dog training affiliate site, I click the macro it opens:
- Firefox, with a tab for the blog, one for the dashboard, one for each of the 5 products I'm promoting.
- Then pops open photoshop
- then the project folder on my hard drive
- then an image search on a free image site
- then the spreadsheet where I'm tracking the project
- then the google keyword tool and puts dog training in.
But the real power is when you use it to drive a repetitive task from a spreadsheet, like my article system. I sheet, 75 lines and 75 high quality backlinks all in about the same time that it would take to submit to 3 or 4 article sites.
L-E-V-E-R-A-G-E
The ultimate would be to find someone who could build these macros for me... still working on that one.
