For many marketers, the thought of using software to re-write content is blasphemous and some get truly upset with anyone using an article software. I used to be on the edge of that camp. I’m saying on the edge because if there’s one thing I believe. That is sometimes, when we pre-judge the results, you could be missing out on huge things.

When WordFlood was recommended to me, I was naturally skeptical and you should have a dose of skepticism. You see, I’ve tried an article software in the past and frankly it sucked. If you’ve followed me in those days you may have heard me say things like, “you can’t automate article writing“. I still believe that, but WordFlood has helped me see things in the right perspective.

What made me adjust my thinking on this article software?

It’s simple. WordFlood is not a content spinner or article re-writer. It may be marketed or categorized as one but in my eyes it’s not because it is not automated. It relies on user input. Here’s how it works. You load an article into the software. WordFlood will then analyze the content and provide alternatives for highlighted words. You can see from the screenshot below that not all words it suggests are appropriate but the word ‘noted’ has some good options you can use.

Why bother? You can do this in a heartbeat without any stinking article software.

Good for you! And I’m not saying this to be snarky. I really am glad for you. But for those who may not have a large vocabulary or where English is not our native language (it is not mine) – we have a tough time finding the right words when re-working out content. Do you follow me on Twitter? Then you may know that quite often I ask people what’s a good word for something I want to express.

The software does not replace any words for you automatically. You can choose which words you want to swap out and it happens with a click. And because a human has to read/re-write it, it won’t come out like nonsense. For this reason, I find it super helpful – at least for me because it eliminates the slower process of looking up alternative words on Thesaurus.com or similar sites.

The verdict: Is WordFlood for you? Let’s see. If you are naturally good with writing, don’t have problems with finding the right words and have a vast vocabulary. Perhaps not. If you struggle coming up with the right words, then it would be helpful. It doesn’t have to be used just for PLR. Sometimes, I load a blog post or reprint article I wrote in there. Just to see if there are better words I could use to make my post or article clearer. In other words, I don’t use it as an article re-writer but a tool to help improve my writing.

The software is priced at $47 at time of writing, not something that would break the bank, which is good. Here’s the best part, there’s a 14-day trial version of WordFlood on their site. Download a copy now and decide for yourself.
