is the common trend these days to still auto blast 1000+ comments to blog websites, or is it now better off using scrapebox to find high PR blogs and leave manual comments to 10-20 blogs?

It depends on what you are doing.

If the links are going to point to your money site then go for manual.

If they are tier 2 links then by all means, blast them hell out of them.

I would find key words
Harvest , sort by PR, use external link checker and filter.

Then manual post from top PR site down

It's better these days to go manual to high quality sites. It's quality not quantity.

i agree with you

I would go with a mixture of Both . That way you'll have good high PR ******** comments and a bunch of mid level links . Quality and quantity.
