No its working fine for me on all my servers. If you got to help >> test server connection all are 6 boxes green?
If not something is likely blocking scrpaebox, try adding allow rules in all your anti-virus, malware checkers, firewalls etc...
Its not going to work. Scrapebox now scrapes yahoos front end. If you open yahoo in a browser and try that query you are shunted off to site explorer. So yahoo returns 0 results. You can use the back link checker addon to get the same results from site explorer though. It does a linkdomain: with the sites you feed it. (essentially).
shuffle feature has to be added here because when you transferred failed keywords it orders automatically by name.
What does it matter what order the keywords are in? If you are using proxies then they are likely from different geo locations and different google data centers are getting the requests and it will appear random to them. Even if it was not random it doesn't really matter, there is unlikely to be a bot that checking for alphabetical order queries from teh same IP, they just look at volume.
You would use
site:http://www.that-EDU-or-GOV-site-you-scraped.edu
that will give you innter pages, then just comment to them and see what sticks.
Less then 12 hours to activate.
Not true, I just talked to them today and had 2 licenses activated in the past week or so. The only reason they don't activate licenses is if you submit the wrong info or you have used up all your free transfers.
Here is a video I made that will show you how to look up your info.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8PWovAQaiU
If you can't figure it out, just email them and ask, the address is on the contact page.
http://www.scrapebox.com/contact-us
What error is it giving? Its working fine for me on lots of instances.
Yes, it just means actual support questions may take a tad longer to get a response, they put activation requests first.
I knew it was a typo..i was jus playin around. Thanks for the rep
haha, thanks mate.
Hey loop wassup bro, well it just crashes, and window appers to close it and when I reopen sb it says to send the error msg and closes and again gotta open it. It was working great 3-4 days ago and idk what happened got good proxies even on low threads like 50-100 crashes after sometime, tried on ver.21,.20,.18 same thing, can it depend on the foot print? Is there any other alt to this, it would be great if sweet could add a kwd done and not as well just like the harvester session.

Think it thru. A source is a webiste with a list of proxies. Scrapebox just reads the list so you don't have to. If I make a website with a proxy list like this:
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
127.0.0.1:80
Which just points back to your local machine and is totally fake, scrapebox would read it an consider each of those a proxy. The harvestser just looks for text in the right format thats it.
The pupose of testing the proxies is to weed out the bad ones. So sure, if you feed it sites that only list dead proxies then its not going to get you anywhere.
We are back to either you have something blocking scrapebox or your sources are dead.
Go to the proxies section here on BHW and look for a recent list of sbox proxies and test those, if you test a few and get 0 good proxies on new lists posted here, then its likely something blocking scrapeobx and you should hunt that down. If those work then you have bad sources and need new ones. You can check out my vid for that:

Yes there is a discount. Contact support for the pricing and instructions.
http://www.scrapebox.com/contact-us
I wan an free one!!!
Your wasting bandwidth. Go away. Yes I am wasting bandwidth too, and probably arguing with a bot at the same time.
Scrapebox used to work with the yahoo API. The API didn't care about IPs and no limits = no bans. Now that yahoo discontinued the API scrapebox is forced to scrape the front end of yahoo just like google. So its just like using a browser. So the IP bans now are pretty much just like google. You will need lots of proxies.
502 is a bad gateway, meaning not that yahoo is down, but that a proxy or some server in the middle isn't working correctly. (generally). It could just be yahoos way of saying your banned, I haven't really tested it yet.

all my proxies are testing fine.. I even tried harvesting public and scraping yahoo..
I have tons of domains (400k) that I know target AA blogs. I want to do a linkdomain: search to get all their AA backlinks. Is their an alternative method to this?

use smaller lists.. can't be done otherwise.
Loopline's video on getting links craled with rss is helpful. If you are just looking to get a new site indexed I could suggest this.
http://www.imtalk.org/cmps_index.php?pageid=IMT-Website-Submitter
Also I have a subscription to Lindexed that has been rather helpfull in getting links cawled. I would suggest that too.. if you are only doing a reasonable amount PM me and ill enter your urls into my Lindexed account for you.

Hi
I am not sure if this is answered already, if so forgive me for repeating the question.
How do i remove the limit that is set for Rapid Indexer. I want it to have no limit on number of links that can be entered

Hi, I have 2 problems with scrapebox so far. I'd like to ask you guys what would be the best practices on these issues.
1) the backlink checker - how to work this out with a huge list of URLs to get backlinks for. For instance right now I have a 1 mil long list of URLs to get the backlinks for. If I process the whole of it at one time, the number of backlinks would be huge. What's the best way to handle this? Especially in regards to the proxies, which burn out very fast when running the backlink checker. What do you advanced users do for this? Buy a hundred private proxies, or scrape public ones, or just split your big URL list and run the chunks with breaks in-between?
2) the link checker - I seem to get fewer found results if I increase the number of connections. The default 30 connections came up with most founds, then increasing to 300 and 200 brought in much fewer numbers. The program didn't hang or crash, just results were significantly fewer.
I'd appreciate your sharing your experience with this.

Today weird thing happened on my xsserver vps.
Last night my sb was running and after that i gone to sleep when i woke up today i saw a mail that my license has been trasnfered. wtf
I have not done any transfer and i just contacted sweetfunny and asked about it. she told me that i might have given my details to somebody else.
which is really not true. by the way is there anybody who faced such things ever with scrapebox.
I am at least not depressed as sweetfunny might help me out with this issue, else i would have gone mad.
M glad sweetfunny contacted me. Trying to solve the issue currently.

The only way to pull a link domain is with the backlink checker addon, but its built specifically for that, so it does a good job.
Hi

As mentioned above it can't be removed. You have to remember that scrapebox is a 32bit app, as such it can't use more then 1.8GB of RAM and the rapid indexer does everything in memory. So the reason the limit is there in the first place is that if you load more then that its likely to go over the memory limit imposed by windows and 32bit apps and it will crash with an out of memory error. So I promise, using smaller lists is easier then having it crash every single time you load a big list, and crash in the middle. It will drive you mad. Limits are there for a reason, to protect you and save you hassle.
Just like the speed limit when driving a car. I would split the list and run chunks. I mean pulling backlinks for 1mil urls could me that you could wind up with as much as 1 billion ulrs+ Its unrealistic to try and work with that many urls in even a semi timely manner. Just split the list and work thru it. I would put it in 1000 or maybe 2500 chunks cause even with 1000 X 1000 possible backlinks your looking at a million ulrs. Then you have to work thru those.
Sure the link checker is going to give less found results with higher connections, just like posting will. You only have so much resources with your processor and memory and you only have so much bandwidth. If you bandwidth pipe is full from too many connecitons, then many more of the connections will timeout. You have to play with it to get a rough idea. Rasing your timeouts can help, but at some level your just chasing your tail.
I run on 1000Mbit connections and often use as much as 300-400Mbit at once. I still don't turn my connections for link checker past 200. I have on occasion turned it to 500, but knowing with speed you lose accuracy. If you rush thru anything in life its at sacrificing accuracy. So you have find find a level where you are comfortable with the loss of accuracy vs the time spent working against over all volume of results. And you thought that math class in school was pointless.
Version .21 is supposed to fix the "modifying the tcp data received from the server". that some people were having. So if you haven't updated to that, then you should do so.
Success is relative, very relative. How are you getting your success numbers, from scrapebox?
The dissertation:
Firstly scrapebox receives a header reply from the blog that tells it if it was "successful" often the blog will not return a proper header, due to server failure or whatever, next the proxy can also not pass along the right header etc... Whenever scrapebox doesn't get a 100% "yes it worked" it assumes it failed. So having too many connecitons going, not a high enough timeout, slow DNS, bad proxies or simply blogs that aren't returning the headers due to X modification they have done will decrease what scrapebox says was successful.
I have auto approve lists in the hundreds of thousands of urls that if you run them thru scrapebox they will show as failed due to the way the blog works, but when you run the link checker they show found live links that succeeded.
So the only way to know true success is to check for how many links are actually found, which again is subject to you understandig conneciton, timeout and bandwidth limitations so the link checker doesn't timeout on tons of urls.
If we are talking Auto approve urls its easy enough to check true success, just link check the whole list. If we are talking about non auto approve then you are going to need to wait 3-6 weeks and run the link checker then for an accurate success rate.
Else its highly relative. I love the success/failed feature in sbox, but it is in no way an accurate measurement of how many links actually stick. Since the links that are live and google can see is what we are after, link checking is the only real way to determine success rate.
So in short your problems could include any or all of:
Too High of connections - turn them down.
To low timeouts - turn them up.
Proxies that when tested show good results but when hammered can't handle the stress - turn your connections down. Look thru the eerror messages after posting and use those to determine whats wrong.
A bad list - either blogs that aren't doing their part on returning a success header or flatly a bad list thats comprised of urls that can't be commented on or aren't successful with sbox in the first place.
Overall looking at the error codes on the failed urls after posting is completed and then studying what those error codes mean will give you a great insight into solving your own problem.
I can tell you the problem is not scrapebox, the poster hasn't changed recently. The problem is most definitely how You are Using scrapebox. Save the "modifying the tcp data received from the server". error anyway.
I have never not had a message answered in almost 2 years. Their support is quite possibly the best of any black hat product on the market, and considering they charge much much less then products that aren't even as good as theirs I would dare say it is single handedly the best support I have ever had black or white hat product.
If you transferred more then 1 time in the month its not their fault you used up your free transfers. Its clearly stated what the policy is, you can read it before you buy scrapebox. If you want more transfers pay the $10 fee.
http://www.scrapebox.com/policy
Its not hard. The policy is straight forward. Its just like going to the store. If you want to buy bread, pay the price or don't, but don't get mad at the store for not giving you 2 loaves for the price of 1.

Now I don't chat much on this forum because, well, I'm too busy working and making money but I do a LOT of reading here.
I just wanted to chime in and say that the ScrapeBox support team is one of the best I've ever come across.
I was in a tight bind. Had a crappy (slow as shit) VPS and had about 12 jobs lined up that would have netted me bout $2000.
So without hesitation I went with a much better VPS (with a much better price) and I needed the SB license changed with a quickness so I could get these jobs done. About 3-4 hrs after contacting them they had switched the license and emailed me asking if everything was running smoothly. I told them it was and that I was getting the jobs done. They've even emailed me a couple more times to check that everything is running smooth.
If your gonna say tl;dr, in essence, ScrapeBox support ROCKS. I don't know if that was you SweetFunny or not but whoever it was THANK YOU AGAIN!

I cant see exactly when its running but when it hits a proxy that doesn't work - it just skips it , right ?
i ask cos i was scraping a big directory and they banned my ip even with proxies I'd checked --- so if you extract data and teh proxie is a dud -- it skips it - ?
less important q
how does it know if it works or not ?

All the reviews look great, not only great product but also great support.
Although only a newbie, I'm giving it a go! (nothing to lose)
