Multiple (unexpected) links from the same domain problem

So I just had a really unhappy client because of some 250 UNIQUE domain links he was supposed to get, 30+ of them were from the same domain. Yeah, 30+ links from the same random directory.

The project was posting to the global verified list and no, I don't have "Allow posting on same site again" ticked. 

However, I do have "Continuously post to target sites even if failed before" ticked which seems like the only thing that could cause this problem even tho I never saw something like this happen. I always thought that this option only made SER post over and over again to sites that failed submission previously
(I get no "already parsed" messages but still see a lot of "already successful" messages, which would suggest that SER is posting to a site until successfully posts). 

Because if it also made SER post to sites that it successfully submitted to before, it would do the same thing as "Allow posting on same site again" option does, right?

The reason I use "Continuously post to target sites even if failed before" option is because without it I get a lower number of verified links (some submissions fail due to proxies / VPS / captcha service acting up and without this option, SER doesn't give that site a second chance).

Anyway, I'd appreciate if some1 could shed some light on this and help me prevent something like this happening again.

    would be interesting to know what engine/site it is to have a closer look.

    scheduled posting is disabled?

    If by "scheduled posting" you mean the scheduler then no, I'm not using that.

    If on the other hand you're refereing to the "pause submission after x..." option, it's set to pause after xx submissions / day.

    I mean the option to create more than one account on a site.
  • HinkysHinkys SEOSpartans.com - Catchalls for SER - 30 Day Free Trial
    Nop, everything in that area is unticked.
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    ok then I don't know that "Continuously post to target sites even if failed before" should not have caused that either. Have the links build recently?

    I noticed something like this happening on other projects which did have scheduled posting enabled. 
    For example, it was set like this:

    Time to wait on further registrations: 1440min
    Time to wait before first post: 0min
    Time to wait between 2 posts: 1440min
    Max posts per account: 2
    Max accounts on site: 2

    Now this should be a maximum of 4 links from the same domain but I still got 10+ links from a number of different domains. The "solution" for this problem was...well...don't use scheduled posting at all. x(
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    When you say "..10+ links from a number of different domains" what domains do you mean? I can't understand what you are referring to.
  • HinkysHinkys SEOSpartans.com - Catchalls for SER - 30 Day Free Trial
    10+ links from one unique domain...and that happened with many different domains. (For example, 100 links in total but only 10 unique domains)
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    ahh ok thats what you mean. Is that a tier project?
  • HinkysHinkys SEOSpartans.com - Catchalls for SER - 30 Day Free Trial
    Nop, it was just a test project with random URLs.

     
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    ok changed something for next version, let me know how that goes.

    @Hinkys, @Sven: Same case here. I'm still experiencing this on v8.14! Any update on this?

    I also don't get "already parsed" messages because I have also enabled "Continuously post to target sites even if failed before" but I still got "already successful" messages.
    I think it's because the description or anchor text of your verified URL (in your global list) is somehow "related" to the description or anchor text of your project.

    For example, I have the word "cheats" in my verified URL's description or anchor text. If I still have the word "cheats" in my new project's description or anchor text, then GSA SER will automatically skip it. :(
    I hope there will be an option to post again on that URL.

    UPDATE: I think I found out something. 95% (if not 100%) of the "already successful" messages occurs in Aardvark Topsites (Directory) engine!
