The Truth Behind Ghostwriter and Article Spinner Software

Ryanick Paige
While searching for some writing software I came across article ghostwriters and article spinners. After a little research on these products, I quickly realized they were not for me. If you read below there are brief descriptions of the products including how they work and what they do.

The ghostwriting software is a program what supposedly does your research for you. You type your keyword into the box and the program comes back with many sentences about that keyword. It gives you the option to select the sentences you would to use in your article and with the click of a button; it "throws" the article together. Literally, that is what it does. The articles are mishmash of sentences that do not flow, do not really even relate to each other, and quite frankly just do not make sense. Upon a little further research and running the article through plagiarizing software, I found that every sentence was stolen from someone else. Luckily, I did not pay for this program. It had a free trial offer and was quickly deleted from my computer.

If you do a quick search on the internet, you will find a thousand hits for article spinners. Some are an online program and free for your use. Others are downloadable and you have to pay for. I can across on I had heard of before and figured I would see what all the hype was about. They advertise the products by saying that it "spins" fresh and original website content from a single article. You write one article and this program can produce dozens of different ones. The program replaces words with synonyms to create this supposedly new and fresh article. One the first run through the plagiarizing software all was fine, because it was a new article that I had just written and "spun" into a new one. So I used an article that I had already had published on the internet. I ran it through the article spinner and created a new article. Not only did it fail the plagiarism test, it failed miserably. The plagiarism software easily targeted all the sentences that were duplicated from the original article minus the occasional word that had been changed.

In this world of modern technology, many things are created to make our lives easier. The ghostwriting and article spinning software were created for this purpose. I found out that easier is not always better and that quality is more important that quantity. A true writer would never compromise the integrity of their words for a few additional page hits.

    I wrote that comment directly below this one, but forgot to put my name on it. Maybe I have grown too old now to be ingnored completed for everything I write. But please put my full name on my contribution to your site. You are 100% right about those softwares. I hate to admit it, but I fell for one as well. I thought I would make my job a little bit eaiser since I used to have so many clients. Thanks for the warning to "want to be writers". If you got a good story to tell then find a good ghost writer and make significant contributions. Don't contact me, I am no longer doing it.

    I have made a lot of extra money, by ghost writing. You would be shocked to know how many top selling songs that I write for well know singers. A contract is made that the singer who "buys" it gets all proceeds and all credit. His/Her name is on the label as music and lyrics by "the well known singer". I had my first experience when very young. I wrote a song that if I gave the title anyone over 60 would recognize it. Now at the time I wrote the song for deep personal emotional reasons. But I am tone deaf and sing like a frog. Even if I could sing well, odds are hugely against me getting this song on an album and then having it played on the radio. So for ego reasons and without a formal contract I sent the lyrics and music to my favorite singer. The song was published on a best selling album and many people have told me they like it. I did get a small check and a "thank you" letter. I anxiously awaited to see my name on the label. My young heart was broken when the album was released.

    I think you do not know how to use the article spinner. When done as intended, thousands of new combinations can be achieved and they will pass plagiarism test.
