Are you putting your keywords in quotes like that? Like are you actually using
"inurl:%KW% -2014 -2013 -2012"
or are you using
inurl:%KW% -2014 -2013 -2012
?
With 10 dedicated private proxies and 4 connections you will get all your proxies banned. I wouldn't think it would be within the first 1000 results, but its entirely possible, especially if you have been banned multiple times before. 10 proxies and 1 connection is too many with those kinds of footprints.
When using advanced operators like that you would want to either use 20-30 proxies with 1 connection
or go to settings and uncheck "use custom harvester" and "use multi threaded harvester"
and then set the delay drop down to RND (in the lower right hand corner of scrapebox)
and then go to settings >> adjust rnd delay range and set the min to probably 5s and the max to30 and start there and go up if need be.
Also if you are using
"inurl:%KW% -2014 -2013 -2012"
with the quotes, then your getting no results because non exist. Check your resulting footprints in browser to see if they return results or not.
What is your goal there, to minus out the years of 2012 - 2014? Because its also going to be ineffective at best. Its not going to minus them out based on googles timeline for those results, its just not going to give you pages that actually have those dates on them, which will help, but if a pages was found in 2012-2014 but doesn't list the year it was published on the actual page then its still going to be returned.
If you want true date timelines based on googles time frame search then you would need to build a custom string in the custom harvester for your time frames.
Yes your going to ask, "how do I do that". Im going to make a video and post it, but Ill not post a hundred screenshots in this thread in case thats not what your talking about. Also there is some reference here:
http://scrapeboxfaq.com/how-can-i-ch...ter-for-google
But bear in mind that requires you use the custom harvester, you can NOT use the custom harvester AND use a Delay. So you would need to add 10-20 more proxies and set the custom harvester at 1 connection for that to work. Not completely sure how this will work in Scrapebox 2.0, and I will probably wait till it comes out to make a video on the time span, but if you want more info I can post screens.
