How do you scrape Forum Signature links?

[MikeBuyco]

I've been trying to scrape forums that allow signature links but I'm not having any success. I've have some good ones but only about a few percentage of what I scrape. Can anyone recommend me a good footprint to scrape forums that allow signature links?

I thought you could just use scrapebox to scrape the members list...like so:

site:targetforum.com/members/

Then, save the list of results to a text file.

Next, open up the Link Extractor Ad-On for Scrapebox and import the file of member URLs you just saved.

Set it to only extract "external" links...and give it a run.

Should work, I think

Found this footprint a couple weeks back here on blackhatworld.

"Find all posts by""Find all threads started by""Total Posts:" "signature"

That will find all forum profiles that show signatures, aka publicly viewable.

If you have scrapebox as well, put that as your footprint then add a bunch of keywords as well, it will find more.
