JetConvo Review: Build Forum Threads on Autopilot
Wednesday
Nov 26, 2008
If you have a forum or have been thinking of starting one and cannot seem to get it launched or cannot seem to get the search engines to notice, then JetConvo is your answer.
Just over a week ago I stumbled across this up and coming service and decided to give it a test shot. JetConvo is an extension of the Jet Spinner and Jet Submitter article spinning and article submission services. After visiting the parent website, I saw JetConvo and said to myself “What the heck is that?”
The answer is that JetConvo will create threads and automatically add answers to questions to keep the thread going over a predetermined schedule that you set. Yes, basically and Auto Forum Poster. The first question I asked was: How do they make these threads make sense and how do they match up with my forum topics?
They use pre-existing topic threads from Yahoo Answers which has millions of question and answer sessions that can work easily for any forum. I bit on this and decided to give it a whirl as you can actually create a Free Account to test the system.
I have a forum which has been basically sitting there waiting for me to add content to it or delete it. It routinely gets spammed since I don’t bother with it, so I figured it would be the perfect test bed. No harm, no foul. After just 3 days, my forum traffic quadrupled. I was expecting the Google slap right away since it is duplicate content, but so far all is good and my natural traffic, new natural threads, and member count has also quadrupled. So kudos to the creators of JetConvo for creating a solid product, which is still not completed fully by their count. The JetConvo blogs says they are still adding more and more functionality to this product and I am really stoked about it.
The service supports multiple forum platforms like vBulletin, phpBB, Simple Machines, and others. Did I also mention that you can create your own Signatures with links to whatever sites you want? The website lists the full version features as:
- Automatically populate an UNLIMITED number of forum categories on autopilot! Yes this means you can have different keyword specific posts for each sub-forum on your forum
- Have posts appear daily on a time delay so any visitor sees nothing more then an active forum that gets new posts daily by its members.
- Logical, Related, Interesting content Auto posted daily
- Complete control over post signatures
- 5000 threads & answers per day
- Unlimited sub-forum, keywords, and more
- Automatic creation of all new user accounts for posting!
- Unlimited sub-forum, keywords, and more
- Automatic creation of all new user accounts for posting!
Not a bad deal huh? For more information on JetConvo, visit the link here now.

This is an old review. I haven't used this service in almost 2 years, so I
can't comment on if it still works or not. It worked pretty good when I
first used it.

I have used this service on two different occasions and I had nothing but problems with it both times.
The first time I signed up on a month-to-month basis with jetconvo.com. I got everything set up on all my forums. The threads started posting at first. But then I noticed that certain forums would suddenly stop having threads posting to them for no apparent reason. I had to keep doggedly going into my account and re-submitting the forums. That would get them going again for a while, but then they would stop again. I sent numerous support tickets which were answered by someone named “Hannah” but not helpful in solving the problem. Hannah kept apologizing and told me they were having “server issues” and so forth. Finally I was told to go register on a different website called jetconvo2.com. That fixed the problem, but it left me wondering why I was led to sign up on the first website to begin with–why is this site even online and available to the public if it doesn't work? And also wondering why it took so many support tickets before I was told that.
The second time I used it was when I set up a different forum on my site and decided to sign up for a year. Of course, I started out with jetconvo.com. The threads posted to my forum for about a day and then stopped. I did everything I could to try to figure out the problem to no avail. I sent numerous support tickets that I got no answer to at all. Just dead silence from them for about a week. Finally after sending enough tickets and with enough threatening, some guy named “Matt” responded and said he was going to forward my emails to someone named “Todd.” Never heard from Todd but finally heard from Hannah after I filed a dispute with PayPal to get my money back and was threatening them with the Georgia A/G's office and the Atlanta BBB. I did, of course, get another apology from Hannah and her explanation that they have been “short staffed” recently. Always some excuse it seems.
Their timeframe for answering tickets is at least 72 hours, if they answer them at all. And it makes no difference whether you mark an issue as “low” or “high” in priority. The apologizing gets old after a while. A company can only apologize to you so many times before you realize they simply don't have their act together. Also, you get spammed to death from Todd with his automated emails, wanting to sell you more stuff. The current forum I registered with you doesn’t work, Todd, so why would I pay to register another one?
This service is a big disappointment and a headache. I would recommend it to no one. The idea of a forum launcher like this is a great idea, but this company runs it so poorly that it just ends up being not worth the hassle. Maybe in the future someone else who is worth their salt will make a similar product available to the public. Unfortunately, this is the only one I know of at present and it's a dud.
