Article Builder is a new software tool developed by Jonathan Leger that will help you generate unlimited amounts of articles with a click of a button.
How does it do this? Well Jon has created a massive database of categorized titles, introductory paragraphs and tips and snippets that have been extracted from a huge library of PLR content.
All these elements are combined to create a highly readable article that can be used for a wide variety of purposes.
How Article Builder Works
Article Builder is an online tool, so you can pretty much access it from anywhere. The interface is pretty plain, but that’s because it’s so simple to use.
To request an article, you first need to select from one of the available categories. Currently, there are 52 different categories ranging from Internet Marketing to Dog Training to Nutrition.
Content gets added to the Article Builder database weekly, and if enough people request a category, it will get added into the system. At launch there were only 23 categories, but a month later it has more than doubled.
Next you can input in an optional list of subtopic categories and choose your minimum word count. Article Builder can generate articles from 300 to 1000 words long.
Finally specify how many articles you want it to generate and press the button to spit out your new piece of content.
There are a couple of Advanced Options you can also set that I wanted to highlight as well. If you want to use Article Builder to generate articles you can use for blog networks like Traffic Kaboom and Authority Link Network, you can check the ‘Spin articles together’ option that combines all the article intros, body snippets, and conclusions together using spin formatted text. There is also the option to generate articles with the same number of paragraphs, which is perfect for Unique Article Wizard users.
How I Will Use Article Builder
When I saw the email about Article Builder, my first thought was that it would be the perfect source of content for a link building networks like Build My Rank or Linkamotion. Instead of paying around $3 for each 300 word article, why not use Article Builder to provide the content?
To put Article Builder to the test, I decided to test it out with Build My Rank. This is a good case study for Article Builder, because BMR is quite strict about accepting unique content. For the purposes of this review, I submitted a total of 16 articles generated by Article Builder. I also did make sure to proofread each article thoroughly and made appropriate edits to ensure that the articles read well.
Did they get approved?
Yes, all 16 articles were approved by Build My Rank. Not only that, but all 16 of the articles were indexed by Google too.
Pretty good, right?
What I’m really looking forward to however, is the next update to the tool which promises to be amazing. Basically, Jon is making some changes to the Article Builder system so that every article generated will be guaranteed 75% unique. This will be an incredible feat if he manages to pull this off, and I really hope he can do this. If he can, there is no doubt in my mind that Article Builder will be the ultimate link building tool.
The only downside to Article Builder right now is the amount of categories available. As I mentioned, they the number of categories is available is growing, but at the time of this review, there are still some categories that are not available that I would really like to see.
Final Thoughts
I have some high hopes for Article Builder, which is why I went out and bought it right away. Jon always releases great products (The Best Spinner, Instant Article Wizard), and he does a great job of keeping them updated too.
While $297 a year doesn’t sound cheap at first, you have to understand that writing content yourself is time consuming and paying for it will cost you way, way more. Lets say you use it to generate 5 articles a day and 1825 articles a year. That comes out to about 16 cents per article which is an amazing deal if you think about it.
So, if you really want to boost your link building by providing yourself with an unlimited source of content, give Article Builder a shot. It is certainly a product that is worth investing in.

Yes, got the same email from Jon and watched the demo video with great interest. As his Spinner has been top notch, this product could be the ticket!
At first I had the old deja vu of the ill fated IContentRobot, I personally know that Jon is not a novice to this biz and he doesn’t put his name on rubbish!
I’ll be watching your blog for updates on how it’s been going for you! If well, then I just may purchase thru your link!
Rock on!
When you start using program like this maybe it’s time to stop blogging or even stop producing content. Where’s the originality where the uniqueness of ones content. A blogosphere with software like this is sad new for the future or written content in my opinion. Well who am I to talk maybe it will produce some seriously good stuff.
I’m very interested in your experiment. I’ve been thinking hard about this product, but was worried about copied content. It took a lot of guts to plunk down the $197. Good luck. Please let us know what you see as the main drawbacks.
Hi Cade. So far, I haven’t had any problems getting my generated articles approved. I do spend a couple of minutes touching each article up though, but that’s me trying to make things as unique as possible. Probably the biggest drawback at this point is that Article Builder might not have the categories you’re interested in. But there is a form to request more topics, and knowing Jon, I’d bet that Article Builder is going to keep improving by leaps and bounds in the coming months
hi josh, just want to followup with your BMR test using this Article Builder.. i am interested if BMR will approve these kinds of articles.. i too is outsourcing my BMR snippets.. hope you can let us know. Thanks (pinoy?)
Hi Elizar,
So far so good. I’ve posted 10 articles generated using Article Builder to Build My Rank and all of them have been approved. And half of them have been indexed already by Google.
i checked the link, and its sold out! too bad… i was going to get it becuase of BMR.
Yeah, it seems to sell out pretty fast. But Jon also opens it up once in awhile. So best chance to get in is to signup for the notification list.
So you say your articles got approved at BMR? That is very cool! I wonder if there will be enough content no to make things duplicate at one point… how much time do you spend on an article to “make it unique”? Anyway, it would be great to produce unique articles in less than 5 minutes and if BMR accpeted them, probably Ezine Articles and other article directories would do too.
Yup, small sample size, but all articles have been approved so far. I just spend a couple of minutes editing each article to make sure it sounds good.
I saw you said that you touch up each article a bit to make it even more unique. What are you doing? And have you found that it helps your success rate?
Hi Greg. Yeah, I was doing that. Basically just reading through it once and proofreading it to make it read better and make it a little more unique.
However, Jon is starting to add these super-spun articles to the different categories of Article Builder. This pretty much takes care of any uniqueness concerns, especially if you are primarily using these articles for link building purposes.
Josh,
I purchased Article Builder, but have been using it strictly on Web 2.0 free sites for linkbuilding. I wanted to know if you are still using the content for submission to Build My Rank? How about for EZA? I actually got an article accepted at ArticlesBase on a whim, but I never followed up with another effort. I figured I was just lucky.
What kind of update can you give us?
I don’t regularly do it anymore, but I always have been successfully able to post ArticleBuilder articles to BMR. I’ve never tried with EZA.
If you want to guarantee acceptance though, make sure to proofread the generated articles before you submit them.
Josh,
I apologize, I hit submit before thanking you for the outstanding feedback you have previously provided us. Best wishes for huge profits in 2012.
All my best,
Cade
You can delete this post. I just wanted to than you for your hard work on the reviews you give us. I know it takes time away from your money-making projects.
Are you still using this tool? Do you rate it as highly as you did back then?
You say you don’t use it for BMR any more, is there a reason why?
Thanks!
It’s just a time thing. But yeah, it still works fine with every service I’ve tested with.
This tool has just been recently integrated into senukex. Great combo.
I am not totally sold on article builder producing original content, but it is what it is and you can mix articles with it. OK for backlinks but obviously not any good as blog content.
