Here's my results from my second attempt using about 2,000 good & fresh proxies.
-10,084 forums (unfiltered)
-8,067 forums (after filtering)
-1,608 emails
-3,633 registrations (not sure how many are actually registered, probably about half that)
-waited 2 days
-confirmed all emails
-ran 200 through the signature poster
-47 of those actually posted the signature
-after checking links of those 47, only 32 have an active link (some require login to see the link, some don't have BBCode enabled)
So going by that test, out of the original 10,084 I'll probably be getting around 581 active links total, which is about a 6% success rate overall from the original unfiltered list.
I'm not exactly sure where other people are coming up with a 20% success rate. Are you guys confirming your results?
All that being said, and aside from my initial dissapointment, I'll probably continue using it for now. Afterall, it doesn't really take me much time to scrape a list of forums from scrapebox & throw them into PLR, and I'll be getting around 500 backlinks from this one campaign.
I can also keep adding to my list of forums that worked and go through smoothly & reuse them in the future to hopefully get my success rate up much higher.
Here's some of my suggestions to make the tool better:
- A signature preview option would be nice to have in the signature settings page.
- some kind of status indicator letting me know how many have been processed
- For the "visit selected site", can I have it open in my default browser rather than the built-in browser?
- An option to copy selected sites to clipboard
- Auto-save the project when opening a new project. I've lost my work a couple times.
- A respective "save" and "save as" from the file menu. Right now it's just "save as".
- When I'm registering sites, it needs to uncheck those in the sites list that have been processed. If I stop the registering for some reason and come back to it later, I have to manually uncheck those that have already been done, otherwise it will go through the entire list again (including those that are already registered) unless I manually uncheck them.
- Also, like drdankmendez said, a better way to get the profile links exported, and retry of websites when a proxy or captcha fails. The profile link exporting is the most important IMO. I don't want to have to wade through a massive log file to find my links. Once I start scaling up the number of projects this will be become very important!
