Picked this up yesterday, ran a half ass blast on an old site I had laying around, it said it posted 400 comments successfully.

Ran the link checker, it came back with 38 confirmed, I'm sure a bunch are in moderation. I used the free proxies, so I doubt many will get through.

I tried running the pinger, it was slow as shit though, and aborted because it ran out of proxies. Any thoughts on that?

Overall, seems like a really powerful tool. I'm gonna run it again tonight on Blog Engine blogs instead of Wordpress, with a spun comment, random email, a few different anchor texts as the name, and a single url. I put in my decaptcher details, not sure how much that will help. Will also be using some proxybonanza proxies, though I'm afraid I'm gonna blow through the bandwidth way too fast.

For $47 fuckin bucks, it was a steal in my opinion. The scraper alone is really nice. I'm still unsure of the best techniques for it though. Anyone here have some advice? Anything to watch out for?

Oh, I also installed it in a TinyXP VM, nice way to circumvent the one license per machine BS :338:
 


This thing is my baby. Run it day and night. I recommend picking up a handful of proxies from proxy bonanza (the bandwidth will last you quite a while and you can always add a bit extra to your account for cheapppp). They are fast as shit and send your success rate through the roof.

I recommend the blogengine blogs and set your footprint as inurl:

You will find a ton of relevant sites to comment on and blogengine are almost always auto approved.

Def. worth the $47 and the scraper is amazing...
 
BHW - ScrapeBox I think...

I did a run with blogengine, it was trucking along doing the slow posts just fine, then crashed randomly
Not sure if it was because of the VM or what, but I got about 100 posts in before it choked.

Do you use it with Decaptcher? How frequently do you post?

Feel free to PM if you'd like
 
lol they've set up paypal in such a way that you can get it for free if you know how.. (I think)

EDIT: omg I just tried it with a different browser and a proxy.. I paid anyway but jesus christ that's retarded, they can make such a tool, but don't know how to set up paypal properly..

EDIT 2: ok good they have a licensing system
 
@esomark yes he has a manual licensing system, the guy deserves the cash anyways. His support is amazing and he releases an update every other day.

@dchuk. I've yet to use the decaptcher service (practically no need for blogengine) and I've yet to have the thing crash on me. I've even run several instances of the thing on the same computer, each doing a separate scrape/post.

I usually have it running over night.

5 quick tips I use:

1. I only use proxies when doing search with Google etc. never have problem with proxies from free sites (Hint: check proxy forums). Its easy to find a 1000's and run through proxy checker. I end up with a few hundred good proxies. Do this daily to find fresh proxies.
2. I dont use proxies to post comments on blogs. (alot faster and results ALOT better
3. blogengines is a piece of cake to get into..almost too easy.
4. Make your own custom lists of names, comments, emails. Rotator works wonders.
5. Use your own custom footprints: "allinurl:" "allintitle:" to mico-target/find relevant blogs.

I just grabbed a copy of it. I have some software I wrote that does similar stuff, but this looked like a steal for $47. I keep getting an error though when I try to start the application. Shot a message over to support.

It's a bad idea to hit a ton of blogs at once from the same ip, especially if your targeting Wordpress (see: Askimet). It'ls also an easy way to leave a footprint linking all of your websites together.

The software has a built in name generator, for emails I use this generator:
spam revenge.

In regards to anchor text, I like to have 20% anchor text, 80% random names (call me paranoid but no one wants an Askimet ban).


Useful Tip: Let's say we have a blog list of 2,000 wordpress blogs. We run it through once and successfully hit 800 blogs. Instead of calling it quits I prefer to keep attempting to post on the remaining 1200. Here's a quick way to attempt the 1200 again:

Export Button:
1. Export All entries
2. Export valid entries
3. Export bad entries.
4. Open bad entries as blog list.


**WARNING**:
Always make sure the # of bad entries you load into the blog list equals 1200 (or whatever your amount is). Occasionally Scrapebox will bug out and you'll have like 3-4x that amount. If this is the case:

1. Import bad entries into URLs harvested window.
2. Import and compare successful entries.
3. Remove Duplicate URL + Domain.
4. Re-check that new list size = 1200.

When using free proxies a lot of your "link checks" will 404. So, after it runs a link check once run the program again and it will only re-attempt the 404s and other errors. This is especially useful w/ 1k+ successful comments

 I tried running the pinger, it was slow as shit though, and aborted because it ran out of proxies. Any thoughts on that?

The software creator really cautions around using pinging. Make sure you randomize delay. Personally, I haven't tried to ping.

Advice:
1. Fool around with timeout settings, especially if using free proxies. I set my fast post time out to 30-40. This gives the slower proxies a chance.

2. If you have a good internet connection (or your not using the computer) then try fiddling around with the maximum connections for various tools. For example, If you have 150 proxies but your Fast Poster maximum connection is at 50 then your only utilizing 50/150 at a time.

3. Keep your results per keyword between 200 (most relevant) - 600 (least relevant). Anything past 600 is shitfuck.

4. Check out the addons she offers, there's a few cool ones. Outbound link checker is cool and the alive/dead checker is great for cleaning out a big list your about to spam.

5. You can run multiple instances at once, so if you have a T1 connection then multi-task away.
Things to watch out for:

1. It's sometimes incredibly easy to overwrite files w/ this program, especially when loading files into the comment/blog list yadda yadda.

2. always make sure to download the updated "cloud blacklist". I'm not exactly sure what it does but anything w/ "blacklist" in it, especially when spamming, is probably important.

How many runs did you do/comments did you blast to get to that point?
 
Well i blast only once a day to around 2000 blogs...I always use 5 different keywords everyday.....I don't ping the same day but after 48 hours..becoz in that time many of my post gets approved by blog owners....Also i use different text/content everyday with my anchor text!!

I use SEnuke too with that!! I am on one more site right now with a good competition...Will update the results in some days for sure!!!

And how'd you keep the linkbacks relevant to your niche?
Click to expand...


The intitle syntax works best for me regarding .tv/.edu for my TV episodes site...and many other relevant syntax which helps in getting some niche relevant BL!!! I can daily see a continuous rise in BL from market samurai (feels good :D)....Though I cant blast in a greater quantity for now becoz that site is new....so i have to start smooth else the site could face a sandbox!! :D

It seems to me that eventually your going to have to be blasting non-relevant keywords. If your % of relevant backlinks starts to decrease i'd assume your website will start to seem spammy to google.
 
Agree with you guys that it is an awesome tool. Well worth the $47 he charges for it.

The proxies it scrapes itself are shite though but I coded up a few scripts to scrape proxies from other sites and have a few private ones for blog posting.

A tip for when posting to wordpress: Play around with trying to post a comment to a blog you own with WP and askimet installed. Once it gets by it on your own blog your good to go, just make sure you have spun it enough {|{|{|}}} if your posting to a large number of blogs.

Its PR checker is also very good. Any high pr >= 5 blogs it finds I manually comment to make sure it sticks, it can be a bitch trying to squeeze your anchor in though.

This tool works great in addition to lfe getting extra links to the blogs it creates or even commenting on them.

Haven't really played around with the rss submission or pinging yet. I also keep a file with all the public proxies that go dead, you never know if they will be turned back on in the future, it will take a long time to check such a huge list but I imagine it would be great for pinging etc.
 
This is a sick tool for the price, and the support is stellar.

Now everyone stop talking about it publicly please. ;) :D
