A quick proxy question... I understand the need for proxies, and that if I'm going to scrape Google, I need Google-passed proxies. If I'm using PIA (Private Internet Access, a VPN), do I need to have anonymous proxies? Apparently in the Automator plugin, I can discard proxies which do not pass...

An interesting line of logic - I'll have to let it tumble around between my ears for a while and see how it sorts out. I thought that page rank (or site authority) as a whole affected the SERP position for each individual keyword, but... Enough SEO philosophy for this morning - it's time to...

Some of the most powerful tools here are also the ones that can get Google's attention fastest - and not in a good way. Determine where you need to strengthen your backlinking (keyword research, blog posting, forum posting, social media, etc), and determine your budget. Next, read what you can...

Yet more information to incorporate in an effective blog. Thanks for the read!

I'm new to the forum, but not to the scenario you've described. Consider using the 300 good links you already have as a link wheel and continue driving traffic to your main site using them. By maintaining a reasonable amount of link velocity for the main site and pushing traffic to your existing...

Thanks for the video, Loopline (& others posted on youtube). I'm new to the program, and have slogged through the first 100 pages of this thread - and watched various videos to try to get a good idea as to how to proceed. I've got my desktop littered with txt files from my early attempts -...

Great thread - hopefully it'll pique more interest and gather some steam. I'm new to ScrapeBox, but ran across the following while trying to get up to speed (credit to someone else, don't know who though): "For some reason, this bit of information never got very widespread, and it is an...
