Kansieo.com Newsletter… Caffeinated Content – The Developer’s Cut!

Here is a word-for-word copy of my most recent newsletter:

Caffeinated Content – The Developer’s Cut

If you’ve read my blog recently, you’ve probably seen my post regarding the Developer’s Cut version of Caffeinated Content (http://kansieo.com).

Basically, this is the equivalent of giving away my proprietary secrets–every bit of code Caffeinated Content uses will be out there in all of it’s glory, even the bits and pieces hacked together.  It’s not at all a beautiful work of art, but it’s there for your editing pleasure.  Don’t like how Caffeinated Content’s default interface works?  Change it!  Got grand plans for a new plugin?  Build it and sell it.

Already there are people creating via the Caffeinated Content code-base.  Over at NaughtiPress.com, there is an adult webmastering plugin under construction that looks to be a game changer in that largest of all internet niches.  I’ve seen an early demo of the product and all I can say is WOW!  They’ve told me they’ll have a demo video up shortly…hopefully sooner than later!

The Nitty Gritty

I’m not going to get bogged down with a bunch of terms and conditions, mainly because that kind of stuff just isn’t fun.  Basically, twenty people will be able to grab a copy of the Caffeinated Content code-base.  Twenty people only will have the chance to create their own thing based on Caffeinated Content.

On August 18, 2010, the presale will end and I’ll begin to email the product  to the twenty lucky individuals.

Obviously, copies of this product should not be given away, but can be sold provided significant changes have been made.  I will also be opening up Kansieo.com’s member’s area for those of you who wish to distribute your newly created product through my website.

So how much is it?

No joke, this is a huge step for me.  Caffeinated Content represents hundreds of hours of development and countless hours of research and testing.  Hiring a programmer to build your own Caffeinated Content would undoubtedly cost thousands upon thousands of dollars and weeks or months of time to develop.  $5000?

Nah.  I’m hoping this will spearhead a ton of new development in an otherwise stagnant area. $1000?

Nah.  I’m hoping you’ll allow me to be an affiliate in the sale your wonderful new product. $750?

$497.  For the unencrypted code.  For the rights to modify that code and to sell your modified code uninhibited.  Hundreds of hours of work, done for you.

To sweeten the deal, a coupon worth another $300 off that price good until this weekend only: PRESALE.

So $197 for Caffeinated Content – The Developer’s Cut?  Why are you still reading?  The twenty copies are probably already gone!

Caffeinated Content – The Developer’s Cut

As the headline reads, Caffeinated Content – The Developer’s Cut.

What does this mean for you?  Well, for starters, if you know a thing or two about PHP, you can take the Caffeinated Content source code and make it work any way you want it to.  Have grand ideas that Caffeinated Content just doesn’t do?  Add ‘em!

Best of all, if you create something, you’ll be able to sell it.  Think you’ve got a hot seller on your hands?  The groundwork is already there for you to host your creation inside of Kansieo.com’s member’s area.

Already, there have been a couple of people working with the code under this program and they’re providing some interesting results.  NaughtiPress looks like a HOT product–literally.  If you’ve ever wanted to quickly dive head-first into the second largest niche on the internet, now is your chance with just a few button clicks.  Frankly, from what I’ve seen so far, this product is pure gold.  Hopefully they’ll get a video up shortly that showcases what it can do…

The bottom line is that there will only be a handful of people lucky enough to get their hands on this source code, but at the same time I want it to be priced at a point where it’s still affordable for those really interested in putting it to good use…visit the Kansieo.com member’s area and sign up…I’ll be shooting out some info on early-bird pricing shortly. :)

The new automatic blogging craze

So there seems to be a new craze in automatic blogging upon us.  I’ve seen at least two courses come out in recent weeks that take a look at automatic blogging. Let me just say one thing…in reality, there’s nothing new about it.  When Caffeinated Content was originally released back in the summer of ’07, it was the first tool of it’s kind, predated by the likes of RSS2Blog and BloggerGenerator–both awesome tools for their time.  Caffeinated Content was the first that could actually get an automagically updating blog out there with relevant content, quickly, easily and cheaply.

So fast forward to 2010, site content still is the number one thing driving traffic (some will argue that it’s not the content, it’s the links, but that’s a discussion for another day…besides, CC does links too), fresh-looking blogs are still where it’s at.

Anyway, I’ve kind of lost track of where I was heading with this blog post, but the gist of things is that no matter what Google does, the simple fact remains that the tried and true methods pioneered years ago continue to work to this very day.  Some times things require a bit of tweaking, but the general methods behind the madness are still there.

Caffeinated Content 3.41 and WordPress 3.0 work nicely together…

Just finished up some testing and everything appears cordial between Caffeinated Content 3.41 and WordPress 3.0, the latest and greatest version of WordPress released last week.  There is one small keyword bug that will be fixed in a quick update this week (multiple word keywords don’t work in Yahoo Answers anymore–to get around this, add a ‘+’ in place of the spaces).

Google Caffeine?

First, people ripping off my code, now, Google ripping off my Caffeine! ;)

We’ll see how Google’s new index affects us all in the coming months, of course the gloss currently sounds great, but we’ll be sure to see the downside shortly.

The nerve.

So, these days I seem to have one major competitor.  Doing what any normal person would do, I took a look at their code to see what’s going on and found something I certainly didn’t expect to see–direct line for line copying from Caffeinated Content.  Not cool.

What are my options?

Also, CC update arrives shortly.

Caffeinated Content pulled from the market? WHAT?

Simply put: It’s just not true!

So I’ve had a couple of people email me in the past few days asking why I’ve pulled CC from the market. I was flabbergasted.

Yes, as my newsletter subscribers can tell you, there have been a couple of administration problems that are being addressed and slowly worked through, but Caffeinated Content is still for sale for your content creation enjoyment, and remains the premier system for WordPress bloggers. It’s not server-limited like the nearest competition, and there is no monthly fee.  Check it out at http://kansieo.com/members/buynow.

Anyway, hopefully everyone can see through the BS, and hopefully others will stop the defamation without me having to resort to threats. ;)

Watching the Wheels


People say I’m crazy doing what I’m doing,
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin,
When I say that I’m o.k. they look at me kind of strange,
Surely your not happy now you no longer play the game.

For those of you who don’t know, this is the first verse of John Lennon’s ‘Watching the Wheels’. Now, I’ve never been a huge Beetles fan (I’d pick Rolling Stones over the Beetles for greatest band of that era…), and am not greatly crazy for John’s solo work, but this song especially sends out a strong message to those in our career of choice.

So often, there are naysayers in the general public, friends, and even our families that question why we do what we do. They say it’ll never work, that it’s not tangible. Why give up the sure thing in your 9 to 5 job for something that is largely misunderstood and is still a new frontier?

Well, as John said,


People asking questions lost in confusion,
Well I tell them there’s no problem, only solutions.

Now, if someone can convince my wife, it’ll be a miracle… ;)
