Okay.. good to go. let us informed with the latest results
Alright, I got started with Scrapebox Sunday morning. I bought 10 proxies from yourprivateproxy . com, and I had trouble getting them to work at first. It was my fault I forgot to add my IP address in their control panel.
My first two runs with Scrapebox were made using public proxies harvested with the program. I harvested about 1500 blogs in just a few minutes, not too slow. When I posted the comments I got roughly 80% of them submitted by using the slow poster after the fast poster.
After I got the private proxies figured out, good lord what a difference! I harvested over 2000 URLs in under a minute. The fast posting was much faster, the slow posting is of course about the same. I got 85% of the posts submitted on the second run. I should point out that after deleting the duplicate domains there were only around 450 blogs left out of the 2000.
Something I have learned is you really have to watch your keywords. I imported a huge list I generated in Market Samurai and there were many similar keywords, this caused there to be many duplicate domains. Also, I now go through and check most of the URL's in the internal browser before posting comments; again you really have to watch your keywords. For example the keyword phrase baking cakes will return blogs about cakes of soap, about baking ceramic moulds, etc. I tried using quotes around the keywords, i.e. "baking cakes" but had too few blogs returned to mess with.
I bought Scrapebox Domination before I bought Scrapebox, and I learned a really good way to use scrapebox to generate a list of high PR bulletin boards targeted to your keywords. I then load the HTML list in Firefox, and use the name and email generators to help me register a bunch of accounts at the BBs. I then edit the profile I created and add a link to the website I'm promoting, next time google crawls the BB, I get a backlink. I setup a catchall email in cPanel for the website I'm promoting, that way all the emails scrapebox creates with @mydomain go to my main email account so I can verify the BB accounts.
Anyone looking for good proxies that are approved by the proxy provider for use with Scrapebox should try yourprivateproxy . com. I am using the 10 proxies for $29.95 per month, and they are super fast. They also advertise the proxies as having no monthly bandwidth limit. I have Proxifier on my computer and everything connects through the proxies, Firefox, Bittorrent, etc., and I have seen no slow down.
