I just purchased a new piece of software by Jonathan Leger called Answer Analyst. What’s it do? The user enters a keyword or keyword phrase, and the software goes out on the Internet, searching for the most common questions “real people” are asking about the topic. Can you imagine how much easier this is going to make writing relevant content on your site, blog, or in articles?
As a major article writer and article marketing geek, I plunked down my $77 as fast as I could, and then took this baby out for a spin.
Am I happy with it? You bet.
First, let me tell you WHY you want this
It you need content of any kind (articles, blogs, site, sales page) Answer Analyst will tell you exactly what your client/customer/consumer wants to know about what you do. (and this works even if you have an offline business)
For example, pretend you own a bricks and mortar “pest control” business and want to beef up your website with more relevant information so 1) your site will be found; and 2) you’ll get more customers.
. . . and now how it works
I entered “pest control” as a keyword phrase and within 3 seconds Answer Analyst popped out a whole list of questions, such as “is the landlord responsible for pest control”, and “what is biological pest control”.
But, as the Ginzu knife guy said, but wait, there’s more!
Highlight any of the answers being asked, click “Get Answers” and Answer Analyst surfs the net and pulls back information from other Websites about your topic. You can then save that info as part of your research, then write an article about it. At this point, not only do you know what info your customer wants, you have plenty of research material to write about it!
To Buy or Not to Buy?
I don’t know about you, but I’m constantly creating new content . . . not only for my own sites but for my clients as well. Having instant access to the questions people want answered about ANY TOPIC . . . and then having access to instant research is a no-brainer for me. I bought it this morning and it’s already saved me $250 of my own time in researching keywords and then researching the topics I need to write about. Probably the best $77 bucks I’ve spent.
First impressions – just another tool that scrapes info from place like Yahoo Answers. Well, it does…sort it. I bought this knowing that I could probably get my cash back if it wasn’t up to the job. Needless to say, I won’t be asking for my money back – the power of this tool comes from finding associated phrases that you can then turn into articles but without the effort of digging around manually.
Thanks for the advice on this one.
This can be helpful for those people who are looking for immediate results. But what about quality? What kinds of contents are made using this tool. Hope the result is okay.
This would be really great for someone that can’t come up with a topic to talk about that day in time. Actually, this tells you almost what is on people’s minds, excellent for marketers. Wonderful find there!
Not too sure if I want to spend $77 on it. Maybe 20.
For sure this is a great tool, but I think this not worth $77 just for find some questions. I prefer to make this kind of marketing research for free, anyway this tool don’t write articles for you, so I think is too expensive
Hi,
Answer Analyst is really great tool.
We can increase lot of traffic from the tool.
Thanks for sharing.
Sounds like a pretty cool program, I have been a member of a number of Jon Leger’s linking networks which work rather well. Usually anything he creates is very useful for IM.
