In this post series I want to suggest some ways to employ Internet Marketing Automation.

This is where we deploy some code, kick back and let the code automate our repetivive tasks such as article submission or blog publishing.

Let’s explore some of the ways that this can be achieved.

The first method that I am not planning to talk much about is the “biological machine” method. This basically exploits people in the 3rd world to programatically perform tasks. You can find cheap labour in say the Philippines and exploit them to do your work. So you provide them with a procedure to follow, and a way to detect that they completed the procedure to your satisfaction before you pay them.

An example might be a Captcha-solving service where your software e-mails the worker the image of the captcha and receives back the text that the worker thought represented the image. Then a bot script can be authorised to login and post to the forum.

In this way, you can code an interface that sends an image of the web page that your customer’s clients need to crack and pass this onto your worker to provide the result back to the server to log the client into the web site to maybe authenticate them as a real person user. Then their clients can get their data posted to the web site such as a forum.

With this kind of introduction to one possible Black-hat technique out of the way, let’s move on to more ethical ways to automate our internet marketing. Look out for my next post on the topic of Internet Marketing Automation …
