Auto-Generate Posts with the WP-o-Matic WordPress Plugin

Have you ever noticed those blogs that seem to automatically generate content? Typically they are done in good taste, maybe linking to a small portion of one of your posts and providing a link to the source. There are a few ways to accomplish this with WordPress, with one method being the free WP-o-Matic WordPress plugin.

This WordPress plugin allows you to add/import your feeds and sort them into campaigns and categories for easy management. You can then automatically generate posts from the feeds of your choice. Additional features include the ability to relink specific words as well as rewriting words within posts.

WP-o-Matic is actually a pretty well done plugin, but has the potential for abuse in the wrong hands. I recommend people that download this plugin use it responsibly and always only post excerpts of others works and provide a link to the source.

Edit: There is now a premium WordPress plugin available called Auto Blogged, which is a MUCH more advanced version of this plugin and is probably the one you see most people using.   It has a one time fee associated with it, but the plugin will quickly pay for itself in a short period of time!   Automatic Blog is also growing in popularity.

If you don’t want to be limited to just using WordPress, you can also check out Niche Dominator.   It allows you to have similar functionality within WordPress and is very easy to use.   Niche Dominator also gives you additional options that don’t require WordPress.    Click over to get all the details.
