[METHOD] How to Create TONS of backlinks with ScrapeBox

ahhhh scrapebox, the greatest invention after mashed potato
 
Very good post and very helpful. Scrapebox is way underpriced for the job it does. Always searching for new ways to use it. Thanks to the OP for the time to do this. Just another great way of using a great tool.
 
hey

thank u for ur tips. im employing ur method among other methods/footprints. very tedious.

im wondering about the "Failed, Fail to find field" or sumthing like that. is this normal or am i doing something wrong?

thanks.


I'm not sure how other people use ScrapeBox - but a while ago I came up with my own method that I have found to be very effective. A few provisos first; I don't worry about on-topic blogs, I don't check for do-follow no-follow, and I don't check for PR. What are my reasons for this? Well, I can generate so many links that it actually doesn't matter. For this particular method I choose quantity over quality.

Another thing I would like to mention is that this method borrows heavily from others on this forum, in particular Micallef. I've simply adapted the methods for use with ScrapeBox.

Method:

1) First step is to locate a blog that has already been spammed. This is how you are going to find your backlinks. Blogs that already have spammed comments on usually means two things. First; the blog is either auto-approve or else the owner doesn't care what goes on the blog. Second, your comment is much more likely to stick.

2) Once you have found a blog with spammed comments, you need to open up a txt file and then copy and paste the spammers links into the file. Do it in this format:
HTML:
LINK:http://www.spammersURL.com
LINK:http://www.AnotherSpammersURL.com

Keep building this list until you have at least 40 links. Shouldn't take long at all.

3) Open ScrapeBox and paste your list into the harvester. Select Yahoo as the search engine. Make sure you use proxies. Now start harvesting.

What happens is that ScrapeBox will use Yahoo to get all the backlinks the spammers have used. In some cases this will be hundreds of URLs per spammer. If I start with 40 spammer URLs ScrapeBox will usually return between 15k and 20k results. Remove duplicate URLs. You may lose as many as 5k URLs or more. Doesn't matter.

4) Open the ScrapeBox Blog Analyzer. Load your harvested results into the Blog Analyzer and start it running. This may take quite a while to complete. Once done, sort the results by platform, then save the results as an Excel file.

5) Open the saved file into Excel. You are looking for all platforms that are compatible with ScrapeBox. IMPORTANT, make sure you choose blogs that are open to comments and have NO spam protection. Copy all usable blogs into a text file. Name the file 'Sorted for ScrapeBox' or some such.

6) You should end up with between 2k and 5k URLs that are usable. In my experience you will have around a 50% success rate when posting to these URLs. And around 10% to 25% will stick.

I run this method on each of my sites for around one week. Months later I still have thousands of backlinks to each site. This works especially well for aged and trusted domains. But you can cut it back and limit the links for fresh domains.

Great thing is that this is about 15mins manual work. It's very easy and works very well.
 
This gave me an idea. The other day I was looking at sites with 100+k backlinks.... Yes that is 100,000 or more backlinks! I was sitting there thinking "how the fuck???" And then after seeing this thread I began to wonder... is there a way to scrape the yahoo site explorer for places to post in scrapebox or some other software? I have not thought of the way yet but I am working on it now. If I find it I will start a thread on it, but no promises ha, I have no clue as to where to even start! If anyone already knows and I'm late or behind the curve, a PM would be much appreciated!

:ponder:
 
Thank you very much for this method, I have a question though maybe someone can help me out here, when I look at a backlink from a spam website I see a nofollow tag on that backlink source website but it still shows as a backlink how is that possible?

For example:
Code:

The method I outlined will scrape the links from Yahoo site explorer. Or at least as many as the search engine will return to you. That is what the "Link:" search operator is for.

This seems to be quite a common problem. Not sure why it happens - but I tend to ignore the problem and just post to a whole ton of blogs, even though you get loads that fail you will still get a load of successes.

A backlink still is a link even with the nofollow tag. It's just that Google won't follow a nofollow tag. Either way if you are doing automated spamming, you will get so many links that a few nofollows just don't matter.

So that means that Yahoo and Bing will follow it only Google won't?
 
One question for all of those who is doing this method... Have you experienced ranking high in SE for a long time with this backlinking method?
 
This thread is orgasmic! ... Kendra... I am in love with dat sexe brain of urs... I hope that won't make me gay or anything.. I mean u do have a papa smurf avatar so.. I du no....lol

I was already thinking about unleashing the beast without worrying bout hyper targeting which is what was holding me back ever since I bought this software... silly me lol
 
Thats really a good method of using scrapebox, nice thinking ! I was actually doing the same but manually, with backlink checker. This should save me a lot of time :P
That's what I do :D but I suppose I should give the OP's method a try. I think they both do the same thing but in different ways.
 
Excellent post, and thanks to kendra for his great help.
How about tweaking this with link extractor and mass harvest the spam blog links?
 
Very good info. kudos to the op

The main problem i can see with this, is that the blog analyzer takes FOREVER. Its a real pain. I prefer to use the footprint link: with only yahoo selected on sites of people who use sb lol.
 
Yeah using the site: footy and yahoo is very powerful!
 
This post answers the question perfectly "What is working for other spammers?". Ive read this 3 times and am more impressed the more ways I can spin this or combine with methods that are already working. A+
 
great method, I'm will start to link to my web 2 sites this way
 
I have bought scrapebox and it's a great tool but does anyone know how can i choose anchor text (commenter name) if i do a blast with multiple url's.

Can i set the list of anchor text for each url ??

Best Regards
 
So that means that Yahoo and Bing will follow it only Google won't?

My understanding is that yes, Yahoo and Bing follow 'no-follow' links - but I could be wrong on that. If so, I am sure someone will correct me.
