Instant Article Wizard vs Article Architect

Recently I've been getting a lot of email promoting 1 of Jonathan Leger's new products, "Instant Article Wizard". Now Jonathan Leger does create some good products and I've even purchased some like his $7 Secrets.

However, I haven't gotten a copy of "Instant Article Wizard" primarily because I already own an article wizard ... a wizard that I think has more features and costs less.

So today I thought I'd give you a chance to see what "Instant Article Wizard" by Jonathan Leger and "Article Architect" by Jay Jennings can do so you could do your own feature/price comparisons.

First, lets look at the sales pages:
Instant Article Wizard
Article Architect

Personally, I think Jonathan did a much better job for the sales page. And, by putting more work into the sales page, he's helped his affiliates make more sales.

Second, the products:
  • Both products claim to help you write articles quickly, even if you don't know how or what to write.
  • Both allow you to do keyword research.
  • Both allow you to have multiple projects for your articles.
  • Both have a text area to work on your articles.
  • Both have a copy and past function to grab things from other websites.

Here's what I've seen as the differences - remember, I only own 1 of these wizards so there may be more.

  • Instant Article Wizard allows you to write in several languages while Article Architect only supports English.
  • Instant Article Wizard pulls the introduction and conclusion sentences from the sites it finds while Article Architect allows you to read through the sites' contents and copy and paste whatever you want.
  • The Instant Article Wizard videos show that you can move text up and down however they don't show if you can actually edit the words. And because the video shows you how to paste the article into a word processor, I doubt that you can. I know Article Architect allows you to edit the words because that's what I am using right now to write this review. Plus, version 2 of Article Architect has a spell checker built in so there is no need to use a word processor at all. (While I won't take credit for having the spell checker built into version 2, I did make the suggestion when I posted to Jay's blog.)

In addition to the above features, Article Architect also:

  • Shows the number of times a search term is searched on Overture and how many pages exist for the term on Google.
  • Allows you to research your keyword on 14 different search sites.
  • Shows your keyword density for every article.
  • Shows the number of words in your article.
  • Allows you enter a keyword list for every article
  • Allows you to create multiple bio boxes for each of your projects and stores them along with your keywords and articles.
  • Includes an article submitter that comes with 6 article directories listed and allows you to customize this list by adding more and removing the ones you don't want. (It's not meant to be an article submitter but it works just as good as the 1 I was using previously.)
  • And there's more stuff that I haven't even tried yet!

OK, I've sold myself, Article Architect wins the competition when it comes to features.


Third, the cost:

Instant Article Wizard sells for $67 - Article Architect sells for $49.95 - almost $50

$50 is smaller than $67 so Article Architect wins again!

To sum it all up:

Instant Article Wizard is probably worth the $67 price tag however ...you can't always value a product by it's cost since I think Article Architect is of greater value than Instant Article Wizard even before saving $17+ (Let's just hope Jay doesn't find out about Instant Article Wizard and raise his price.)

To Your Success,
Susan
