What that Autoresponder tab is for
17-Aug-06
A lot of ASP users are confused about the “Autoresponder” tab in the Article Creation window. Here’s the explanation:
A few of the article directories allow you to submit your article via an autoresponder address, and so we included it as a feature of the Article Creation window just in case you wanted to use it.
If you don’t use the feature, it’ll only cut your submissions down by a couple of sites. If you DO want to use it, here’s how . . .
Most hosting companies provide a free autoresponder that can be located in your cpanel. These are usually “one shot” autoresponders that you use to let others get your document through email.
All you have to do is go to your cpanel and click on “Mail”, then “autoresponders.”
Once in there create a new autoresponder, paste your article into it (include title, author, body and bio box), and give it a one word name, i.e. “article1″, or “widgets”, or whatever you want that identifies your article.
This creates your autoresponder address (widgets@yoursite.com)
Then you just have to paste that address in the autoresponder tab on Article Submitter Pro as you create your article, and you’re done.
Now, when a site comes up that asks for your autoresponder, that email address will be filled in.
