"Commentz and Hubz"
 
This thread is dedicated to Commentz and Hubz. Hubz is the same tuel as is Commentz, however Hubz has a hidden, secret feature: A extremely powerful page dripping feature.

Before I get into that, I'm guessing most here will think of Hubz/Commentz as a way to allow your visitors to add comments to html pages, and this is correct.

But what is also does is all you (and them) to paste in text/html had have Hubz/Commentz add a template to your content, create an RSS pheed for it, automatically add a link to you index page, and ping your RSS pheed. It's really like a blogless blog.

Why not just use WP? You can. But I prefer the flexibility of individual html pages, where you can edit and modify single pages.

Now, about the Hubz "drip feeder". It seems simple enough to create a drip feeder. But Hubz does some special stuff to remove any fingerprints that the pages are being automatically drip-fed:

(You do need to supply the content, such as articles, etc.)

- First, the pages are copied, then re-created in another folder. This gives the pages different "created on" times and dates. For example, if you've used the Bomber technique for creating pages, the pages will all have the same "creation" time stamp.

- Random upload times. You still have control of this, but Hubz will at random pick at time within a range of /- 15%. So all the pages aren't uploaded on a strict time schedule.

- Random number of pages uploaded. Hubz will randomly add/subtract 3 to the number of pages you select to upload each time, with no less than 1 page being uploaded. For example, if you select "3", then Hubz will upload between 1-6 pages, selected at random.

These three factors go along way to removing any fingerprints that say "automation".

In addition, Hubz also creates links for each page uploaded and adds then to the index page specified in your main Commentz project.

It also modifies the RSS pheed, which can then be pinged.

I think most of the problem with Hubz/Commentz is how many variables you can change. But you don't have to mess with most of them. The ability to change so many things is so you can remive fingerprints and every site of your's doesn't use the same names for everything.

But you don't need to change a thing for your first couple of projects.

The part of Hubz/Commentz that takes the most effort is prepping the template you'll use with each project. It's sort of a catch-22, you need to add certain "markers" to your templates, and you need to enter your template into Hubz/Commentz, but can't do it until you know what to do.

I'm starting working on a quick start guide, as well as some basic templates you can use to make things a bit easier.

Note: Hubz will only be available to Bombsquad members. If you cancel your membership, Hubz will stop working. However, Commentz is your's even if you end your membership here.

   Maybe I'm wrong but the first thing I thought of reading your description was these could be used to add comments on a random basis to product review pages. With the pinging of the rss feed created as it updates, and it being submitted to rss directories, this could add life to a static html review site a la IPK.

Hi Sandra,

I don't know what IPK is???

But yes, it can add "life" to any static html pages, and PHP pages for that matter.

Commentz/Hubz doesn't add random comments, but does allow others to add comments, as well as easily moderate those comments.

Lets say you have 10 different review sites, all on different domains. Commentz/Hubz will check each of those domains and let you pick/choose/modify comments for all those domains from one Tuelz admin page.

Commentz/Hubz will also allow your User to add new pages of their own, which are moderated in the same way.

Another thing Commentz/Hubz does is "process" a folder full of pages. For example, let's say you spun 500 pages using my Tuelz method. Commentz/Hubz will add comment forms to each of these pages, allowing readers to post comments. This will help "dedoop" the pages.

The difference is, Hubz can process the pages and "drip feed" them. Commentz can't and will upload them all at once.

Both also make it easy for you to just type/copy-paste content into it to create a new page. For example, copy an article from EA and just paste it into Commentz and Commentz will take care of the linking, uploading, adding the template, pinging, etc.

The one drawback is you need to add your own html for links, headings, bulleted lists, etc. On the other hand, you have complete control over the html you add. You're not limited like you would be with a blog.

I posted a WSO with the very basics of Commentz and a "quick start guide" that includes 12 ready-to-go templates. Bombers can download this WSO here:

   Kurt,

IPK is Info Product Killer. It came out late summer last year and some folks did well with it.

Thank you for helping me flesh out the idea.

Sandra
