GSA keeps posting to same domains even when I tell it NOT to.
This is a very irritating issue for me.
I have tried in all possible ways to tell GSA to not post to the same domains. it keeps continuing on doing that.
Example:
I am running from site lists.
I have selected only the wiki engine.
In options have in "type of backlinks to create": in this i have selected ONY Article-Wiki (because otherwise it creates profiles too, which is understandable).
I have unchecked "allow posting on the same site again". THis should be enough but it didn't work.
I then checked "allow posting on same site again" and then:
Time to wait between two posts: 99999
Maximum posts per account: 1
Maximum accounts per site: 1
THis also doesn't work, i tried with only 15 threads because i thought it was because of too many threads. For the 100 link I wanted to create it created numerous duplicates, even one with 6 verified links on the same domain.
What can I do to fix this?
Comments
- select a project (just ONE project only)
- Show URLs -> Verified
- sort by URL
- capture screen and show here...
Project backup where the problem appears, including the source list you imported should help a lot to determine where the problem is.
I would also (Maybe stating the obvious) but make sure you've wiped target-urls from your projects if your duplicating them. It could be your "Master" project has a list already in it, and your importing on top of that.
I've done numerous tests from setting my default value of 3 accounts / 1 post each to max accounts and posts to only 1 and time to 99999 to completely disabling the option and to no avail. It posts to the same URL multiple times over and over every time it comes up in the url list.
It seems to do this only when the "continously try to post" option is enabled. So obviously the option is to disable it but I would prefer it to retry already parsed urls every time but not to the disadvantage of posting to the same urls over and over.
Just figured I'd post this to help out. If you have this option enabled and re-run lists quite often and only want X amount of accounts/posts you should have a quick look at your project's verified urls and disable it accordingly.
@Choller and everyone else - I believe I found a workaround, albeit it's not a very good one but better than blasting the same domains over and over when I don't want to.
Do this:
1) Uncheck "continuously try to post"
2) Uncheck "allow posting on same site"
3) Use only 1 email (VERY IMPORTANT)****
4) DO NOT "delete target url history"
**** I am using a spindat catchall but it's important that it's only 1 email. If you delete target url history it's going to post to the same damn problematic sites again, although possibly if you use only 1 regular email the site will deny registration (this I didn't test).
I've noticed that this happens almost exclusively on the contextual links where it takes http://url.com/profile=xxx or http://url.com/wiki/xxx and switches it to http://url.com/register.php. I've done quite a bit of testing with the above options and you will come across many "main url already parsed" as to where before it would just post again. Obviously I don't like that I can't retry parsed links without geting tons of duplicates but I guess it's what we have to deal with til @Sven fixes this.
