i don't know what to do with this tho, heh.
Thanks for the help Lanx, I am going to look into lowering the working memory usage as it seems a bit higher than I have seen but by the time its gets too big for you I hope to have something in place to lower this.
Yep, the export feature is already there. From what I've done with scrapebox, I'm expecting roughly a 1-2% approval rate for comments.
My only question: is there a limit to how many threads I should be running on my home computer?
I would imagine 50 wouldn't be an issue for most computers but it really depends on how long it is running for and how big the database gets. Soon I will have a pages / profile handler where you can lower the size of the database and hopefully running memory usage as well.
I would say approval rate is generally anywhere from 0.5% to 5% depending on the niche/keywords you are targetting and the sample size.
Hi Jim - I still needed the words in the bad word blacklist in addition to the blacklisted domains since some german users also have comnetororg domains as well, which would not have been blocked with the blocked domain alone ;-)
I know but I have had to work on getting the new search API working, I am working on these new features now so it shouldn't be too long.
A feature to import/export profiles would be nice as well, since everytime you reinstall the software you need to setup your profiles again. If we could simply export them before making a clean installation we could import them after installation is completed.
And how does the "Add multiple links to Single Profile" option under the "Add profiles" tab do exactly? Does it work like this. It uses the keywords that you enter to search for trackbacks and comments. Then it takes one of the spinned anchor texts and posts a comment or trackback with one of the domains or URLs added in the "Full address list"?
So basically this option cycles through different URL/Anchor text combinations?
But where is the difference between a normal profile setup as "Website" and this option?
Can you try to explain? And maybe you can give an explanation when one is preferred over the other.
Thank you very much and just for all new buyers here.
Jim is an awesome support guy. He answered every single question with patience and as you can see in this thread I asked quite a lot, because I really want to understand every option or feature of the software.
His support is absolutely great and with our help and a little patience from our side, I am sure he will improve this peace of software further more.
So from me a big thanks to Jim.
Profiles will never be wiped out if you use the update and the installer should not overwrite the database either. If you are updating by overwriting the whole portable version it will wipeout your database but this is not advisable unless you backup the database. I try to keep database updates to a minimum and will always try to get the application to update the database where possible so you don't lose your profile details.
Adding multiple pages to a single profile is pretty much how you explain it. Each page is entered into a single profile so that when the tool does its work on them it will search the keywords you entered to find blog pages, post to them and use the same spinnable text for anchors but pull a random page from the list of pages.
This is different to a website in that the profile will not be submitted to whois websites and nor will the pages be crawled, it will only submit the links in the list where a website profile can extend itself when it finds pages on the same website.
If you have a lot of article links (or other link lists) on the same topic you will want to add them as a single profile so you don't have multiple pages targetting the same search keywords and also to save memory and be more efficient. If you want to create whois links to a homepage (whois links only accept domains and therefore do not accept deep pages) and also gain links to your whole website rather than just a single page you will enter it as a website.
Does anyone have experienced the same behaviour. I stopped it to change some settings and then I restarted it. Now I have it run for almost half an hour and it is just Searching for blog pages and trackbacks. It gets hundreds of founds and everything but it only posts to whois sites. I hasn't sent a trackback or comment in half an hour.
And even when it says "Found 468 pages" it does not add them to the potential list of blogs or at least the number in the profile view does not change.
What is going on?
It seems it is in a loop "Searching" -> "Found" -> "Searching" -> "Found" ->"Added keyword xyz" -> "Searching" -> "Found" -> "Searching" -> "Found" ->"Added keyword xyz" but nothing happens.
It does no longer post a comment or trackback.
If you close the app and open it again does this persist? Did you change any settings before this? Are the Blog Comment and Trackback Posting options in the settings Active? There should be a tick in the box of each of these options. I am not experiencing this problem on my test machines so if you could give some more of an idea of your settings and use so I can try to figure out why this is happening to you.
And now my last question for today:
Can we stop the new "I look for new keywords myself" feature? I know it makes sense that i checks for new keywords to always have enough pages to post on, but I have setup a profile about sustainability, bio, and eco and it returned pages for the keyword "bioshok 2 trailer" ;-) I guess my client does not want to have a backlink from that site ;-)
I'll look into getting an option put in for this. Thanks for the suggestion.
Hi
Couple of questions
I just did a check with Scrapebox Links check.
I entered 2,449 urls (Comment Posted) and Scrapebox only found 2 links.
This seems incredibly low ! Commenting with Scrapebox would usually give me 2% to 5%
Also If I want to run the software repeatedly on the same web site with different key words, the whois sites are going to be spammed with my links repeatedly. Is this correct ?
The approval rate does seem very low, have you been using proxies at all? I find public proxies to be unreliable and no proxy to get you accepted less. Ideally you would be using private proxies but realistically I would be expecting a higher success rate than that.
I would advise to, instead of running multiple website profiles with different keywords, add the different keywords you want into one profile with the different keywords (comma separated) and using spinning text for the anchor text. This will find blogs from all the different keywords to target and will generate links with varying anchor text also it will only create the whois links once.
Do not worry about posting multiple times to the different whois websites, you will only get one link total from each website per domain you feed it. As stated above though there is no need to have a single website added as more than one profile, this will just use more system resources and lead to commenting / trackbacking multiple times to the same website which is never a good thing for increasing your approval rate.
I have the same concerns. I could not find a lot of approved links so far but I think we have to give it time. The links you directly find after a run are only the auto approved links and there are not that many out there.
But I am also concerned about the whois problem. Any ideas?
There is no whois problem. The way it works you will not be hammering the website no matter how many times you want to add the same profile. Adding a profile over and over is not necessary due to being able to use multiple keywords and anchor texts and is definitely not the desired use of the tool.
It is quite easy to get a higher success rate by using keywords that aren't necessarily relevant to the blog you are promoting, for instance do not expect many blogs targeting a computer related niche to be akismet free, where a blog about some obscure medieval art form is more likely to be spam filter free or better yet auto-approve. The other option is to use Auto-Approve lists. These can be bought for little money and there are even lots to find for free if you do a google search.
