What am I doing wrong? I have 10 private proxies and death by captcha. Thanks.

Pretty much all your URL's can't be commented on, you have pages from LinkedIn, Archive.org, Amazon, DicksSportingGoods etc. Even the Wordpress URL you have requires you to be logged in via Facebook/Google etc. So it seems like you just harvested random URL's, you need to use footprints to target the platforms that can accept posts, there's footprints built in click the "Platforms" button on the harvester.

If you are just starting out, Looplines video's are essential viewing https://www.youtube.com/user/looplinescrapebox/videos

What am I doing wrong?

Looks like everything. Look for tutorials around forum. When next time you are not able to post to some site, check by hand if there is posting form, captcha etc.
Btw - in logs you have exact answer why SB was not able to post, if you dont understand logs you wont get anywhere.

Thanks, I had trouble understanding what footprints are, the more common urls probably have css/xml strings that require serious regex robot training to overcome.

1. Find page with form you want to post.
2. Look for something very unique on this page, for example "email"+"leave a comment"+"your name" - thats single footprint.
3. Type this footprint into google and check what results you get, check all pages by hand in top 20-30, check if every page or most of pages have posting form - if yes footprint is good.
4. Harvest target sites using footprints + keywords list.
5. [Optional] - run harvested list through GSA platform identifier or similar software - here you would need to create custom engine to filter sites in way you want.
6. Post

Edit:
Harvesting and positng to forms with very heavy protection, or with custom fields is hardest part here.
To harvest you need toons of proxies, private proxies wont help you alot here, public proxies are way to go. @proxygo is your guy if you need proxies for harvesting. One time payment and your harvesting proxy needs are covered.

A footprint is just whatever you put in the search box in google.com in a browser. Don't get hung up on the name of "footprint"

cars

Is technically a footprint. Or you could say

cars "red"

is a footprint because you want red cars.

Also

cars "red" inurl:cars "powered by wordpress" -green -blue

is a footprint. So whatever you put in the search box in google to get back what you want, just put that in the keywords box in scrapebox and you get back the same. So basically

footprint = whatever you need to search for in the search engines to get back what you want.

It lets you target. As SweetFunny said above, it lets you dial in the results.

If I'm inferring correctly, proper searching with the right search terms and modifiers means you're trying to find pages where form field names, engine/platform type, unique keywords that tie together forms in common that are more likely to take your posting data (name, e-mail, subject, comment, etc.) and with proper footprint habits, conversion rates will be higher? I am still confused as to how to use the footprint radio button on Scrapebox, and when to "push" it instead of platform radio button. Thanks. Jim.

A lot of people use Scrapebox for more than just posting. I use it for tons of things like locating sources for quotes, or scraping all of the pages of a single domain. In those instances, you would use the "Custom Footprint" radio.

If I'm looking for blogs to comment on, or in your case, forms to submit using the "poster" feature, you need to choose a platform that Scrapebox understands. In this case, you would select the "Platform" radio, then click the "Platforms" button and choose all of the platforms you want Scrapebox to search for.

Loopline, who has responded to you on this thread, has a TON of tutorials all over YouTube for you to learn how to use the tool effectively. He has numerous "over-the-shoulder" videos that walk you through scraping, filtering and posting. Scrapebox does a lot, so keep using it and you'll find a ton of tasks you can get done faster because of it.

Thanks, I'm watching the videos now. I am trying to get the conversion rate to 50% like I had with GSA and Rankwyz, now at 1%.

Still no success, 0% conversion rate after going down, once 25% (did I burn my private proxies, I started with only 10?), with death by captcha, which does
not let me test death by captcha in Scrapebox, but there are no recaptcha rejections as most these forms ( I did what you said, checked the top 30 results) have no robot blockers.

The first few keyword combinations I would use to harvest with (no public proxies) are:
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "Eigen vector Eigenvector"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "seo black hat"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "back link black hat"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "cpa pay per click"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "search engine cost per link"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "Penguin Herbalife"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "search engine black hat"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "cost per link Melaleuca"
allintext:"powered by wordpress" "name" "e-mail" "contact" "message" "comment" "search engine marketing black hat"

The videos suggest 100 proxies, I want to use four pc's to harvest/post on a 24/7 basis. I did contact the public proxy guy, @proxygo, he asked for my skype, gave it to him, have to wait to hear back. Thank you. Jim Wood.

So yes, you are correct about the concept of increasing success rates by scraping more targeted platforms that are likely to accept your data. the footprint button is if you want to use the built in footprints that scrapebox offers.

in that footprints section scrapebox offers footprints for all the platforms its capable of posting to. So I would start there and select the platforms radio button and then click the rectangle platforms button- then select the platforms you want to post to. Then add your keywords and scrapebox will tack on the required footprints for each platform to your keywords.

Then post.
