Hi everyone,
Since a week or so I'm a proud owner of SB. I have been getting used to it slowly and been working my way up to finishing reading this awesome thread and have finished watching all the video's from Franky and Matt and reading the guides. A lot to take in
Anyway, great and fantastic tool. Possibilities are truly endless.
I still have a couple of questions though, I'm hoping you are willing to help me with:
1. Why is it that someone uses f.e. -"captcha" or -"login to comment" in their footprint, when you can filter those out with the blog analyzer? Is it so you won't have to analyze that many blogs when finished harvesting?
2. I really have a problem with SOCKS. If I have a list of socks proxies and add a S in front, shouldn't SB automatically recognise it as a sock? Because if I load a file with proxies with a S in front, it won't recognise it when I'm already in the manager. The only way I can get SB to recognize SB proxies as socks, is to add them in the main windows in the "Select Engines and Proxies" section, Click Modify and then select "Mark All As Socks" and then go to the manager to check them. But I would like to be able to load a file with socks in the manager with a "S" in front and check them that way. Currently, I'm not able to check and/or use http proxies and socks proxies at the same time. I'm hoping you all still understand what I mean, lol
3. I still don't know for which features and/or addon's:
a. ... google checked proxies are needed (I know you don't need them for posting but do need them for PR checking). But other than that?
b. ... socks can be used?
You would use the -capthcas footprint so you didn't waste your time harvesting them in the first place. I mean if you spend an hour harvesting them and another hour testing them to filter them back, you wasted 2 hours. Just let scrapebox tell google to not give them to you in the first place.
Loading a file with SOCKS proxies works fine for me. If your in the main GUI and you load the file with the proxies that have the S infront of them, does it show an S infront of them in the window? If not thats your issue. Make sure a capital S with no spaces.
SOCKS proxies can be used for anything that proxies can be used for.
You need to use the google passed proxies for Google based services. If you don't know what a google based service is then your trying to fly a plane without knowing what your instruments do. Scrapebox is automation tool only. It only automates what you manually do, so you need to spend time researching, learning and doing everything manually before you attempt to do it with scrapebox, or your just short changing your self.
Page rank is a google only service, which is why you need google passed proxies for it, obviously harvesting google is, or index checknig google is etc...
The backlink checker addon for instance, it is using yahoo site explorer, so no need for google passed proxies.
Maruk,
Is there supposed to be a space between the end of the domain extension and the {
?
Well its ideal. If you don't put the space the fast poster filters will figure out what you are trying to do, but if you are trying to link check with the same files and you screw up your spin text and leave off teh space the link checker filters won't know what your trying to link check. Call it a fail safe step for yourself.
guys, i have problem.
i own scrapebox and sometime i transferred from my PC into my netbook, and for this month i transferred it into my netbook.
i have subscription internet connection with 1 of ISP in my country, and its been almost 3 years. and now i am living with my parents which different than i am living before ( with my grandma ).
ok so my ISP didn't have too much speed connection that i need, and it goes to slow to just use scrapebox, and fortunately in my parent house, there is Wifi that everyone could connect with them and they can make subscription for each month. so, i decide to subscribe with them in a 2 days ago. and the problem was show up.
when i connect into Wifi, i can open scrapebox, its stuck in activating licence and an error message was show, said unable to activating. its happen over and over.
but when i connect with my ISP, no problem to open scrapebox and i can use it normally.
when using Wifi, everything was good, the connection, the signal that i got, same netbook.
did any one here have the same problem like me? how to solve this? FYI, i don't ask the person which manage the Wifi because he is really really busy, and he's the only one who manage that Wifi.
my plan is, i want unsubscribed with my ISP and continue using that Wifi because the connection was faster than my ISP.
thank you for your answer.
It sounds like something in that network your trying to use is blocking scrapebox from connecting to the activation servers. Either a firewall, or something. That of your connecting to the network and the network is letting you only have internal access, but no internet access. If you can browse the web fine then its not that issue, so it would be something likely with that actual network.
Whoever manages that wifi might need to unblock scrapebox from the firewall or add a rule to allow it.
Maybe a dumb question, but how can I adjust the maximum connection settings for the search engines?
The sliders are greyed out and stand at 10 for all SEs...
Go to settings >> Use multi threaded harvester and make sure its checked. If its unchecked then you are using the single threaded harvester and with a single thread there is no need to have the sliders.
Way back when I first started using sbox, it took me forever to figure this one out. lol
So that file goes in the websites slots? What do i put in the names slots?
Anything. I usually put like John Smith and then hit test comments a bunch of times, if I see the word John Smith pop up I know I have messed up my spin text, cause it only pulls from the names file if the spin text is messed up.
Also you can mix and match. So
in the name file put
red cars
blue cars
Then in the websites file put
http://www.lawncare.com {lawn care|green grass}
http://www.cars.com
http://www.fastcars.com
It will use the locked anchors for the lawn care site and pull a random anchor from the names file for the cars based site.
Hi
Thank you for providing this service I'd like to buy the program, but I am having a problem in terms of payment within the state where I live for not supporting payment via Paypal
i'm wait ..,
Paypal is the only way to Pay, due to various limitations. You can have anyone pay for Scrapebox for you. You just need to let the Scrapebox team know that this is the case. After payment is made you should use the contact form on scrapebox.com to notify them that someone else has purchased it for you, but you would like scrapebox registered in your name. Be sure to include the following when you submit the form:
- The unique paypal transaction ID
- The email used to pay
- Your email
- Your name
- That someone else is buying scrapebox for you
The form can be found here:
http://www.scrapebox.com/contact-us
the software is still for 57$ ? If yes can I pay with paypal ?
Yes its still $57, yes you can pay with paypal and yes its the link in the very first post of this thread.
Sorry, I don't know anything about scraping proxies from anything but the default that comes with SB.
I put in a list of keywords and scraped for WP blogs. Then posted to them and typically I would get anywhere between 500+ to over 2,000 as I got better at it. And when I checked my links with the addon, I would see as many as 250 right after I posted. So I guess they are all getting deleted, even though I am spinning my comments.
Sure they might be getting deleted, but when you check right after you post you are only seeing auto approve ones, the rest go to moderation.
