Check my last comments in this post, they are one of the worst list providers I ever used.
You don't get strong domains from lists as so many people are posting to them they usually go over their bandwidth/storage allocation and end up going offline or rolled back before they can pass link juice. I made this post about getting higher quality targets for SER a while back but it is an expensive process so I dropped using it.
It might be an idea to read this post I made on another thread a few weeks back. IMO the days of ranking with mass automation and auto generated content are gone. I was talking to a SER user a few days back who said he was seeing positive results from using SER as a T2 for his PBN but he never targeted a money page with just PBN links to compare performance. IMO the SERP movement he is seeing is coming from his PBN, not the SER links.
It depending on the volume of link acquisition you are doing and the targets you provided it with. SER is able to do a bunch of the stuff PI can but it locks SER up and takes its resources slowing down LPM so I preffered to use PI to keep SER going fast. I published this set of posts on how you are able to scrape your own lists that may help you out.
Thanks for the tag
.Yes and no, there are two ways to acquire your initial links. In my experience, if you use link extraction then you will be picking up a whole bunch of targets that are currently in premium lists. To some extent the same goes for scraping with the default footprints that come with SER. If you build out your own set of custom footprints then you have a better chance of picking up domains that are not on the lists and are also of a higher quality.
I have been toying with the idea of running my lists through GSA PI in the new year to separate the domains that I have found via custom footprints and use them to manually post T1 links to.
BST sellers can put all sorts of crap in their sales threads to try and get sales. Take this BST for example, it says the content is Dylan Thomas approved but he died in 1953 so no idea how he is approving the content. After the Fred rollout a bunch of BSTs were putting stuff like "Smashs Fred" in their thread titles without posting any proof within their threads at all.
I posted this over a year back in a list sellers BST thread as they were selling a dead list. This post is from another member a few month back in a different thread and it seems they have not cleaned their act up, you can also scroll up in this very thread to see aidenhera opinion on the same list seller.
I suspect there would also be more negative feedback from them but when I ticketed them for a refund they said "In this case it will go slower if you post things publically" due to me making the post linked above. Basically trying to keep me money for as long as possible, perhaps indefinitely if I kept posting the truth about them publicly.
