bbob,
I was just going to post the same question. After harvesting 3700 URLs around 500 were approved. Was wondering if I was doing something wrong, or, could do something to make that number better reflect the total #.
Great software. Had it up and running in under 2 minutes. Very easy to use. Finally, a developer who can think like a user and not an engineer.
Does anyone have any general stats on what # of these sites use "nofollow" tags in their commenting? As you can tell, I haven't used the software much. If someone has gone through their results they may be save me some time finding the answer.
The 500 out of 3700 might also depend on how you search.
for example I always add -"closed for comments" meaning it will skip all blog that have this text.
Normally I would also do -"capatcha" because you need to break them, but it seems that the last version could handle this.
There are more things you can add so you harvast better links.
On average I have about 25-40% that gets posted.
Again posted doesn't mean they will get accepted.
I check this after the posts and also after 2 days, check link option.
This way you can find auto approve blog (most of them are worthless and full of link spam) When you check after 2 days you can see how many got accepted. Doing that so far the results are still a bit poor.
This can be down to my comments, links or other thing.
So I wonder who is doing these check and can other people give their results when checking links after 2 or 7 days to see how many comments did get approved.
