using this network for 3 months +,
all my targeted keywords are at first google page :rolleyes:
 
Seems like it's not posting my articles or comments.

They have been queued for a couple of days now and not a single one posted.

Everything is running smoothly so if your articles aren't going out, please send in a support ticket with your email address. We'll get to the bottom of it within a day...


are home page links still producing results for eveyone here? seems there is a lot of posts of people getting penalised by the big g for homepage links?

I'm not aware of any penalties for home page links. Lots of networks being closed down, but not home page link penalties. A lot of people incorrectly attribute penalties so be careful with what you read. :)


"
1) Any limit on the number of links in contextual links?
2) Any word limit?
3) How many contextual links can there be on a website?
"

There is a limit of two contextual links per site. 500 character limit including html. We'll get better instructional information up there soon as it's too vague now.
 
I know I said the design of the site doesn't matter, but.. I just had a link posted on a page and it was the same color as the background. I think this can result in a ban, so I'd fix that. Aside from this I'm very happy with the service and the average PR for me seems to be above 3 :)

We'll look into improving the hosting platform. Programatically the colors are very different - a bot would never pick up on it. A manual review would catch it, of course. But then again a manual review would catch any site, ours or otherwise.

And glad you're happy. :)
 
We are officially closing the service to new users. Our network has not been hit in any way, but recent events have us making this move to preserve the network quality for our current user base.

Unlike the other networks, we aren't going to ride ours into the ground, so we are making this defensive move.

As you can see from this thread, results are amazing and we want to keep it that way.

Current users can still use the service like they always did. We just aren't opening up the service to any new users.

Sorry for you guys that missed out - just sign up to the mailing list and we'll send you info on future projects.

If I already have an account with no credits, but I want to buy some will I still be able too?

Yes. Anyone who has created an account before will be able to access it like normal. We just aren't going to allow any new people in. (And we have no plans of opening back up right now either.)

Well that is awesome! Thanks for providing this service to us.
 
Hi,

Just received the email.. Can you confirm for members like myself who have registered but not yet credited any funds into the account, will our accounts be de-activated?

I am happy to put some funds on the account now, but havent yet as want to make sure this is right.
 
Right now you can only use the service if you've logged in before. Within 24 hours (with our next release) we'll also be restricting the site to only people who have purchased before.

We have a tight nit group and are going underground. :)
 
I personally don't like the fact that you've stopped giving out reports even though you've restricted the network. One of the main points which made your network stand out is now gone. I do understand the reason for doing it, but if you're restricting the network there shouldn't be any need to not give out reports.

Trust me, we didn't want to. But the good news is, you know we work, you know its effective. You know your links go where they are supposed to. We are brainstorming, and I'm arguing for reports to stay, but my partners are right...we have to do this right now.

We would be irresponsible not to protect our customers. We all have money invested in this and want to keep it safe and with Google laying the smack down right now, we need to keep our defenses up.
 
The other networks were hit even without giving out reports. It's not the reports that'll snitch out the network, even less so when you're restricting the network.

Yes, its very important..that if you want to be able to ever use this service...you need to have at least paid once. So You can pay ten bucks and then cancel if you want to guarantee you have future access.
 
Just got the email..

So I'm really pleased you're closing membership, but I'm really annoyed that we can no longer get reports. I trust that you guys are posting the articles like you say you are, this is NOT my concern at all!

The problem that I have with this is that I'm posting articles as part of my SEO link pryamid strategy.. These articles are my 2nd tier out of 5 tiers, if I can't get the links from the articles then I cannot do my other 3 tiers!

This is the problem that I have. Is there anyway around this? Or a way that you could perhaps let us build further links to our articles? If you could offer a further bookmarking, forum profile sig linking and blog commenting service as well that would be awesome :p

I mean I see that your network is still awesome for the people buying home page links and comments, but for people buying articles this is a real problem..

Anyway thanks for shutting the service to new members because that is an amazing step in the right direction. I respect the decision.
 
I cannot express how glad I am that you are closing the network to new users. I have been really happy with your service, but was unsure about how long I would continue using it, solely because of how open the network was.

I have seen some odd indicators this past week and a half and definitely believe Google has stirred things up a bit. No matter how much a network tries, if the network is open, Google is bound to pick up on it, and I believe the only way for a network to succeed/protect themselves (and their customers) is to do as you are now planning; Going underground.

Again, I am ecstatic to see you all taking proactive measures and look forward to continuing given the changes.

Thanks!

Exactly what is pissing me off!
 
Actually, I couldn't give a shit that it is pink, what I do care about is that the background is font is very hard to read due to matching the background, this is something that will flag the site at some point.

Also, the content is all over the place and not even in English many of the times. The site is about computer security, and there is articles about cheating on your wife.

In a nutshell, there are so many footprints of automation and spam that I don't see it passing any authority or page rank, at least not for long.

TBH I doubt that any designs of any blog will get flagged. Also you sya you don't see any "spam" links passing any link juice simply because of footprints?
If I reckon I saw you posting a thread a few days ago saying you just had bought scrapebox but didn't know how to use it. So really, what do you know about footprints..?
