i have spent a bit of time going through the verified links and found this problem is actually quite widespread for me, the engines i have found it affecting are: phpfox, oxwall, jcow, article script, buddypress, drupal - blog (then i gave up after this many), the vbulletin - blog engine is working as expected.
the link i am including as the in content link (inside the spun article) is <a href="%url_domain%">%anchor_text%</a>
the engines above seem to be coverting my link into an inner url link on their domain, some examples:
- theirdomain.com/mydomain.com
- theirdomain.com/blogs/user/mydomain.com
- theirdomain.com/edobook/mydomain.com
- theirdomain.com/123456/myarticletitle/mydomain.com
- theirdomain.com/groups/myarticletitle/mydomain.com
this is basically rendering all the in content links as useless and all those above url types are leading to 404 pages on the relevant sites.
after checking the source code of those pages, i think i have found the problem, it seems to be a problem with the %url_domain% variable only providing the 'domain.com' with no http:.. ect., maybe this is meant to be that way, im not sure, the manual says '%url_domain% = just the domain name of your url', i expected this would be a fully qualified domain name link and have been using this variable since they were brought up in this thread (from memory, i think i used ur example as the link).
so i am not sure if this variable is operating correctly or not (maybe u can ask sven if he meant it this way?), in the meantime, can anyone confirm which variable u are using in ur articles (%url%, %WEBSITE%.. another?) and that they are indeed being placed correctly within the articles?
for anyone else using variables in ur articles, u might want to check which variable u are using now to ensure u get the proper links placed. i now have to figure out what to do with the 10,000's of articles i have built that are all not including the in content link now :-/
edit: just to confirm as well, the test function never shows this variable correctly, it still shows as <a href="%url_domain%"> in the test example, i just took it on faith (silly me) that it was working correctly/as expected, maybe this needs to be fixed to show the correct information used?
after testing with the other variables, it looks like %url% displays the fully qualified url and displays correctly in the test window, %WEBSITE% displays as <a href="%url%"> in the test window, so no idea if this works or not too
i have one question, can u implement a feature to change all emails + settings on all projects at the same time? i have over 80 projects and to change the emails on all, step by step, it's very very time consuming :/
add please statistic after index checking, like: 15 indexed, 65 non indexed
never mind![]()
Might take your advice.I tried the trial and didn't even wait for it to finsh before getting my license!
I bought the GSA ranking tool as well and have it runnning 24/7 on a vm machine on my server at home, the band width isn't great but i'm getting good steady stream of high quality links to my projects. Being new to seo I was using the settings out of the box and still gave me good results. Recently I invested in some more tools like UCS and CS now getting even better results.
One of things that continually blows me away is the updates, it seems that its updated almost everyday with more and more features.
If you are sitting on the fence on this one, GET OFF IT and buy it you wont be disappointed, I promise you that.
Hi guys,
i would like to know how much do you spent in captcha services per project, using all the available resources of GSA lets say per week for exemple using with CS and without CS so i can understand if CS worths to bought and also to have in mind the weight of captcha costs.
thanks,
morg
bought the software, love it! probably the best deal in the history of IM...however. I made one post on the forum got absolutely reamed by sven which seems to be the main guy and another for not using "proper punctuation" lol! was called names and insulted, isnt the point of a support forum to ask questions? if i knew exactly what to do i wouldnt be asking a question would i haha...seriously that was one of the most unpleasant forum experiences ive ever had. so yeah software great. forum not so much.
Can you tell me that why is such great fluctuation in thread count? I set my threads to 200 and for sometimes it damn fast and it stays around 200 but then after sometime the software dies and goes to 1 or 0 thread..Why is that happening? Its in submission mode BTW not in verifying so it should be fast and use all threads right?
Put it this way - CS crashed on both my dedi and home PC but GSA kept on running for somewhere near 24 hours. Cost me over $100 from my DBC balance...
With CS running on both machines it would have been nearer $20 for that period of time.

There are a lot of variables that effect this. Having enough search engines, keywords and other things. Sven always said in the past that the only way it could really max out the threads you have set was if you're importing your own list. He has tweaked the threads to be more efficient but the threads do fluctuate. You might be able to bring threads up more constantly by lowering the team between search engine queries. You will have to make sure you have enough search engines selected and proxies as well.
Wow $100 from DBC in 24 hours? That would mean you would have had at least 70,000 captcha solves in 24 hours. That is highly unlikely unless you have a pretty insane setup.
I just checked the thread and you were never insulted by anyone and nobody called you any names so that is a false. As a matter of fact there are members there that gave you great advice.
You titled your thread, "SERP drop since GSA usage?" and it seems you wanted some tips on how to use GSA SER effectively. I'm not sure why you'd name your thread that and then just ask for SEO advice ... It's a bit misleading.
I don't see anything wrong with your thread. The only thing is your post was a big block of text that ran together so people said to format it properly so its more readable. Its hard to read and give advice to someone when its all clumped together like that.
No big deal really ... It's the internet, you can't be that sensitive.![]()
Hi,
I'm looking to get GSA but I'm considering if I should get it on a VPS or on my own PC, so I have a couple questions about this;
1. Is GSA a very heavy program to run? In other words does it take up alot of my internet connection when I run it on my own PC?
2. Do most people run it on their VPS or own pc?
3. Are there any vps providers out there with GSA pre installed?
4. Are proxies recomanded for this software? If so how many? And can they be shared proxies?
Edit: I guess the answer kind of depends on how many projects I want to run and how many links I want to get per day. So to give you some more information, Im looking to do the same thing this guy is doing ( http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...t-top-1-position-without-costing-me-dime.html ).
Build first tier: 33 backlinks per day
- PR +3
- D0 f0llow only
- Only on article, bookmarks and social network platforms
Build second tier: 333 backlinks per day
- PR +1
- Every platforms except guestbooks & image comments
Build third tier: 1111 backlinks per day
- All PR
- All platforms
So if I want to archieve these results. Do I have to run GSA 24 hours a day ( and get a VPS ) or can I just run GSA for a couple of hours per day on my own pc and still get the desired amount of backlinks per day?
yes it wasnt me that was sensitive it was them haha. you sure have some devoted hardcore backers of this product thats for sure, they are like a cult "how dare you insult ser" lol i was not bashing i was tired as heck and typed it as fast as i can so it came out as one long ramble. i simply wasnt and still am not using it to its potential, but its trial and error ya know. just wished people wouldnt have been so harsh about it thats all, and i wish i would have gotten a concise clear answer. im almost afraid to post anything ever again now in fear of people misinterpreting it as slander![]()
Question on importing tier 1 URLs that I wanted promoted (creating 2nd tier backlinks to 1st tier) - so in the project data menu - you click the "edit button" next to the URL box - and then click on "Import" to either import from a file or clipbard - and so I import over 20 tier 1 links...
My question is- how does GSA treat the backlinking process here? as opposed to creating a separate project for each first tier link? (which would be cumbersome to duplicate many projects and then re-enter each and every link)... Does GSA give equal weight to each and every link that is imported- which I'm not sure it does...
Or is there another strategy/process to accomplish this?
