Basic Concepts

A script- is a collection of commands placed together for a specific purpose. Some examples of scripts you can create are:

• a script to create an account for you on a website
• a script to scrape data from a different website
• a script to help you reach a lot of people quickly on popular websites.

You can work on multiple scripts at the same time. To create a new script, click on the new script button at the top. Each tab is a different script. Each script can have a different set of commands that you want UBot to follow.

A bot- is the entire system that you are creating. A bot is your finished script of commands that you want UBot to perform.

The browser in UBot, is basically a miniature version of internet explorer. It functions like a normal web browser but with advanced functions that let you interface it with UBot. If you right click on the web browser page, a context menu will pop up. Based on what you choose within that menu, it will gather information from the page. More of how the UBot browser works will be explained throughout the tutorials.

Types of Nodes – A node is like a word in a sentence. It can tell UBot to do something or it can modify the way another node tells UBot to do something. There are: command nodes, text nodes, constant nodes, variable nodes, list nodes, table nodes. A Node is basically every little command box inside the bot.

One way to get nodes into the script window is to simply drag the commands from the toolbar on the left into the script.

Two- you can right click in the script window (where it says drag and drop commands here) and a menu will appear with all of the nodes available in the left hand toolbox.

Three- is to simply start typing in the command you need into the script window. Click where it says “drag commands here” and start typing. A search toolbox will pop up and show the list of commands to choose from. It will find any command that starts with the letters you have typed. Double click on the command you are looking for.

A fourth way is to right click within the browser. Some commands can interact with the browser.

A fifth way is you can click and drag a link from the page into the script window. This will create a command for you. Based on the element that you are dragging into the script window, UBot will decide what it thinks you want to do. By dragging the simple form link into the script window, UBot will know that you want to click that link.

A Parameter is a certain type of node. These explain something to another node, and they tell other nodes what to do/how to do their job. It can be given to a command, or it can be given to another parameter.

• String parameters- dark red, a string of text
• constant parameter- giving you some piece of information. $green
• Variable parameter- #purple, holds a value- you can change it, it is flexible
• list parameter- %salmon color. A collection of data, a collection of variables.

EX: If you want to create a navigate command. Drag the navigate command into your script window; a parameter window will pop up.  This window sets what the parameters will be for this specific node.  Navigate is a command node, the navigation node contains two parameter nodes.

Flow- describes the order in which things execute. If you are having trouble with something in UBot or your script and you can’t figure it out, usually it has something to do with the flow. So be sure to always look at the flow.

$Constants- Are things that give you the information that you need. It gives you a randomly generated piece of information, ie. a username or password.

#Variables- Hold some kind of value. You can tell it what to be, it is flexible and you can change the value. #Variables are kind of like a note card. You can write on it with a pencil, erase it and write something else. It’s like a little nugget of information that you can change whenever you want to.

Set Command- sets a variable to a given value. The set command is under the Variable commands on the left hand side. Drag the set command into the script. Name the variable anything you’d like. Then enter the content you want it to say. Drag the username box over into the script window. Where it says enter text, chose insert variable. Then chose the #variable that you just created. Then it will fill the username box in with what content you entered.

You can edit the content of the variable. By right clicking on the content node and going to insert, and then insert string. This will change the value of the variable.

These are just a few of the basic concepts in UBot Studios, we will get into more detail of how everything works in later tutorials.

How To Scrape a Website and Save Data in a CSV File – Tutorial by Aaron Nimocks

While the main objective of UBot Studio is to let people make their own “custom tailored” bots without any programming skills, it is always fun to see people making a chunk change selling their generic bots – Made With UBot Studio.

I was pleasantly surprised and happy when I got this email from Aaron Nimocks with a screenshot of how much he has made selling a bot that took less than 45 minutes to make. And he is still selling it like hotcakes!

The reason I bought UBot was to make my own bots and then sell them. After watching the tutorials I realized with my minimal PHP experience that I could create tons of bots insanely fast.

For my first project out of many that were running through my head, I made a Twitter Blog Commenter. This bot only took me 45 minutes to make and I made $437 in 3 days on Warrior Forums!

I made well over what I invested in this software in under a day.

You can see the bot that he is selling here. Stay tuned for his screenshot of earning tomorrow.

Steal This Bot: EzineArticles to WordPress Poster Bot!

Have you ever felt frustrated when you had that amazing idea but couldn’t execute it because you didn’t have the programming skills to do it and hiring someone to do it was too expensive?

How about when you spent a lifetime waiting for the new version of a software only to find out that the features you requested are not there? Or maybe you felt pissed off at the programmer who took an eternity to fix the broken software while your business suffered?

We know how you feel. After all, we have been there and done that so many times ourselves. And that’s one of the reason why UBot Studio exists – to make it easy to create powerful software bots without any programming skills.

Thanks to the bot-sharing features of UBot Studio, our members have shared some extremely powerful bots including Twitter Bot, Search Keyword List Builder, EzineArticles to WordPress Poster, Google AdWords Data Mining Bot and more.

Once you have your copy of UBot Studio, you can download the above bots and edit them to customize them to your own requirements. Not only this, but you will be able to create a bot to automate virtually anything you can think.

That’s Right! UBot Studio lets you Turn Your Ideas into Highly-Efficient Software Bots, Without Having any Programming Skills.

Let me give you some more “Hot Ideas” for software bots that you can easily create with your copy of UBot Studio with its “Point and Click” Interface –

What if you could create a bot that lets you analyze any niche and produces the results as a nicely formatted spreadsheet for you to analyze them? With a single click, your bot will be able to search Google, MSN, Yahoo or any other search engine for top results for your keywords.

Not only can you create lists of site ranking for your keywords but you can also make your SEO analysis bot research those links by their page rank, cache date, estimated traffic, age of the site, number of incoming links or any other factors that you would want to consider.

Now, what if you could make this bot take each of those results and make a list of the sites linking to those results? Yes, with one click you can get a list of all the sites that you can target to get links from and dominate the Search Engines.

Just imagine how productive you could get with this kind of tool!

What this software can do with a single click will take you tens of hours to do manually and hundreds of dollars to outsource. With UBot, creating such software is extremely easy and absolutely free.

Tired of spending hours and hours to research and analyze domains for your project or as a potential investment? With UBot Studio you can create a bot to automate all you domain research, and save the results as a spreadsheet.

Or how about creating a bot that finds all possible combinations of domains from a set of keywords, and checks if they are available — all automatically!

Oh wait, what if you could make a bot find all domains in a particular niche; and, if they are already registered, query the whois to find the contact information of the owners of those domains and save in a spreadsheet. See the Potential?

What if you could create a bot that lets you analyze your market and perform a complete analysis for your niche with just a single click?

With UBot, you can create a software bot, tailored for your exact needs, to research and analyze everything about your competitors and your market.

Stop spending hundreds of dollars on directory submissions, squidoo lenses, social bookmarking and a bazillion other different ways to build links. Create a software bot that lets you automate all this with a single click.

It is no secret that article marketing is an extremely effective way to promote your products or services, however, submitting your articles to hundreds of directories is extremely time consuming and tiring. The good news is that with UBot you can automate that easily and focus on profits.

What if you could automate the task of finding blog posts and articles relevant to your target niche and posting comments on them? Yes, I am talking about an easy way to build links, get traffic and increase profits. Check this Tutorial.

Craigslist is one of the most efficient ways to reach out to local audiences using classifieds advertising. However, because of the sheer number of their local and regional sites, it is a nightmare to manually visit each of them and post your ads. How about making a bot with UBot Studio do it? Yes!

Ever wanted to do content scraping but regular expressions were too complex for you? With UBot, you can use its “point and click” interface to make a bot to scrape content from whatever source you want.

Wait, you can make it even more powerful – let that bot format the scraped content and post to your website. No Programming Skills Required!

Tired of spending hours posting threads on hundreds of forums? How about creating a bot with UBot that lets you automate forum posting? Just give it a list of forums and content to post – click and you are ready to rock ‘n roll.

Social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. are an extremely efficient way to build your online brand, interact with customers and promote your business. However, they are an extremely time consuming affair.

With UBot Studio, you can easily create a software bot to do it all on auto-pilot and focus on making money!

Can you see the power and potential of UBot Software? All you have to do is to think of a routine task that you want to automate and UBot can most probably create a software bot to run it on autopilot.

There is software on the market which lets you automate the task of submitting your link to pligg-powered social bookmarking sites and it costs $189. There is another craigslist bot which costs around $150.

You can end up paying thousands of dollars to have bots that do everything that I mentioned above. You can make them yourself for Free with UBot Studio!

A Lifetime Valid License for UBot costs just $245 — over 3 years, that translates into less than 23 cents a day. Yes, that means you will have an unfair advantage over others who don’t have the bots that UBot lets you easily create.

And don’t even get me started on outsourcing. It is lor more expensive and a lot less efficient than using a bot for the same. Use software bots to save money and increase your overall efficiency.

Do remember that the above list demonstrates a small portion what is possible to be done with the UBot software. With the available tutorials and other resources, it is very easy to create these bots and a lot more.
