Contextual low lpm - Verified lists

I've been looking on the forum for ages and have yet to find anything that solves my problem of low lpm.
Pretty much every lpm thread i have looked at and tried to adjust my ser settings to no real avail.
I'm getting 2lpm up to 10lpm for contextual tier 1 links.

imageimageimageimageimage

I'm using ser lists blue list 19, which was released about 20 hours ago - so it's not the list being out of date.
It must be my settings and i've been sitting here for hours trying to solve this problem - the stats have been reset many times today for me to see a more accurate lpm for the settings i changed.
This is definitely a good learning phase though, i've came back to SEO after a long break, bought all the software and proxies and have learned loads today about the software. But this i cannot figure out.

Any form of help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

    For tier 1 contextuals you don't need many links, ~ 30 per day are enough for a medium comp kw
  • I'm blasting links to a parasite site and i would like to attain t1 links in the 1000's
  • I bought the SERLists and other lists, and I get a 1-2 LPM on contextuals, it builds maybe 150-200 contextuals and then just stops building contextuals all together. Been having this problem for a few weeks now. No clue what to do. Tried everything
  • Yeah i was hoping a verified list would clear up my contextuals problem. :/
  • Getting a lot of no engine matches with serlists too, sent them a support ticket this morning - will update here if i get a reply
  • devgrizzly - Your settings are a bit off. If you look at the zip file that came with your purchase of the blue list you'll see the user guides and also a PDF called 'publications' that has links to some more guides that we've created. If you set up SER to run exactly how we document in the guides you will get better results. At the moment you've got your proxies set up wrong (and also various project settings as well).

    I'm a bit busy at the moment, but when I get time I'll also come back and go through your screen shots to help others who might be stuck, but for the time being, if you read the guides you should get back on track.

    Also, you probably need more proxies, 10 isn't enough, even at 100 threads they will struggle, whereas 20 or 25 will happily run lists at 300 threads all day long (provided they're decent proxies)

    @markhoward - You should be getting much better results than that with any list, ours or anyone else's that you've purchased. Assuming that your settings are correct (please double check the guides), have you tried duplicating your projects, clearing all the caches, and swapping out the emails? Basically starting from fresh?

    Also, clearing the cache and importing the urls from sitelist directly into the project(s) can sometimes help, as SER can sometimes get stuck in a bit of a posting loop, especially with some of the web2 engines. No idea why, but I've seen it happen a few times now.
  • Yes, I've tried starting projects fresh. The only thing I'm doing is importing a template on every project. May have something to do with it.
  • Followed all the publications and re-configured all my settings to the ones recommended, fresh emails, url cache cleared etc - like i'm starting from scratch.
    At around 7 lpm

    GSA SER is simply not working correctly - PERIOD!

    All your tricks @2take2 wont make any difference. Even 1000 of the best proxies wont solve these issues.
    Looking forward to see when you finally realize it...

  • I don't agree with the above^ 
    I'm EXTREMELY new to ser, i've seen many other people have excellent results with it - one day i will achieve their results but it may take a long time of tweaking, reading and asking questions.
    Keep going buddy, we'll see results soon.

    I've set up a fresh test project using the latest blue list and it's running at about 90 - 100lpm and is also verifying at about 80% submitted vs verified, which is what I would expect. So it must be something to do with either your settings, proxies, emails or something else external to SER.

    There are other issues with SER at the moment (before anyone else jumps in, I never actually said there wasn't), but they shouldn't effect your ability to just crank out some links from a list at high LPM.

    Do you still have that 'automatically decrease threads....' checked as per your above screen shot, as that wasn't around when we wrote the guides, and might be something that's worth experimenting with unchecking?

  • magicallymagically http://i.imgur.com/Ban0Uo4.png
    @devgrizzly
    Sure - suit yourself buddy;) That was long ago, that it actually did run smoothly.

    Once you have invested tons of money in additional captcha solvers, vps/dedicated server, proxies, emails and magic verified premium lists - I'm pretty sure you will return to this thread and eventually agree.

    Good luck and Merry Xmas!
  • I'm getting a lot of "no engine matches"
    That may be something?
    I've unchecked automatically decrease threads and i haven't saw any real noticeable improvement.
    I'm using 10 semi-dedicated proxies from buyproxies, experimentd with yahoo/mail.ru/nokia mail

  • In fact, most of my log is cluttered with no engine matches

    That is a strange one, and I didn't seem to have that problem with mine when I ran the test, so I don't really know what to suggest as it could be anything :-/

    We'll look into it though to see if we uncover anything that could be causing it.

    However, I still think you need at least 10 more proxies to see decent results, and at the moment I'd probably stick with yahoo emails if you can.



  • These are my project options:

  • Something is definitely wrong with the no engine matches, my console is comprised of pretty much 98% no engine matches! using global list identified.

    @devgrizzly

    Just as I told you - GSA Ser has become an extremely expensive toy filled with bloated links to magic lists...
    Something surely is wrong - that is a fact for sure.
  • Something does seem slightly off, but i'm still getting moderate results - but not at a rate i was expecting.
    619 verified t1 and 5960 verified t2, but not enough for my parasite site atm.
  • Are you getting lots of no engine matches in your logs? That's what i'm getting a lot of in my logs
  • magicallymagically http://i.imgur.com/Ban0Uo4.png
    Yeah, because more than half of those lists are filled with junk, to make it look like something.

    I haven't bought any of those lists, simply because I think it's a high price to pay for multiple 'no engines' and 'blog comments'. 

    However it has been listed here on this forum multiple times - the 'no engines' stuff and how those links are compared against a master-list.

    Try Trevor_Banduras list, should be better - or so I heard;)
  • I've seen many people have good results with serlists, i'm sure it's either my settings or my rig.

    @devgrizzly - How many projects do you have?

    I get about 20 - 50 lpm running around 50 projects on scheduler, using only contextuals.

    Building contextuals is a slow process at the moment unfortunately. Lots of people are reporting problems with SER in this regards at the moment. All my servers are the same, and no matter which lists i run i can only get 10% or less of those links verified. Hopefully there'll be a solution for that soon.

    Your settings look ok at first glance, did you try the suggestions that @2take2 recommended?
  • I run with 20 projects and get around 8lpm, i will notch it up and see if i get higher LPM. 
    Yeah i read all the guides supplied with your list and altered my options exactly how told. do you have any idea why i'm getting lots of no engine matches? I understand what the error is, but it is the main bulk of my errors atm and maybe that has something to do with it.

    Thanks

    It's a problem lots of people are facing at the moment. I'll run the list in new projects and see what happens.
  • Alright thanks, good to know it's not me screwing up my settings.
  • Will also chime in here to advise. I've only used contextual engines for the last 6 months.  My servers do 100lpm no problem, and would crank out 50 - 80k links per day, with 50 - 60% verified.  For the last 4 - 6 weeks my verified has been atrocious.  I'll do 20k links and have 500 verified.  Am hoping this gets fixed ASAP as I can't justify the expense with this level of output.

    You got it buddy - Will also set my engagement 'on pause' at the end of the year and wait for better times.
    The money are running out in the sand, it's 'like pissing against the wind!'
  • I've been reading lots of threads today and it seems many people are having the exact same problem we are and it has been brought to the attention of sven so hopefully a fix won't be too far away.

    Sven can't fix anything unless he knows what the exact problem is, this means we need to narrow things down for him, Sven is and was well aware of people already suffering from low verified links but he can't fix any problems because as far as he is concerned, everything is working the way it should be until someone finds something wrong with SER, it'll remain like this.

    It could be a number of causes, engines, emails, account data, there are many factors involved here.

    For now, try and go back to an older version, this should help a lot of you.

    Be sure to completely uninstall and delete any left over files in your program files and also your roaming folder before reinstalling the older version.

    ALSO! don't forget to copy your entire sitelist folders, the way I did this was simple, goto where your sitelists are stored and then drag them to your desktop, uninstall/reinstall then drag and drop all folders back into the same directory (identified/verified/submitted/failed) I did it this way to avoid any exporting to sl file because the version of SER i installed, doesn't have import from .sl file.
  • Any previous version you find works well?
    Thanks
  • magicallymagically http://i.imgur.com/Ban0Uo4.png
    @Tim89

    Sound like a plan to revert to older version - Let's share a download link...
    Do you have such a version, and if so could you make a link for us?

    Awesome - Appreciated:)

    If you open up some of your verified lists and take a look at the URLs you will notice some very obvious problems. URLs showing as verified that actually point to forms or something else, URLs being verified as one type of engine when in reality they are a totally different engine. All those URLs with the @ character in them.

    Those problems are obvious, i spotted them in 5 mins just by opening a few sitelist files.

    A fix would be nice.
  • ronron SERLists.com
    Not to mention verified 'blog' links where no blog even exists. All it takes is opening up any verified file and looking at links.   
  • magicallymagically http://i.imgur.com/Ban0Uo4.png
    @ron

    Yes, I totally agree!

    "Saying - I have nothing so debug with - Is the same as saying I don't care!"

    We are wasting money here buddy, on additional captcha solvers, servers and God knows what.

    I'm selling out and looking for alternatives instead. This is it! Enough.

    It has been like this for more than a month by now - Saying "stop whining" is totally ridiculous!
    It's cheaper to buy Wham-Bang-Mam-Blasts than sitting here for hours trying to make 10 links...


  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de

    @gooner you have to understand that urls in verified site lists are not the final urls at all. Those are the once when submission starts. Like with any other url you will find in the lists. Thats not a problem for SER to work with.

    @magically you are whining and I did not say "I don't care" It's 23:15 here and Im debugging the hell out of it. All I found is that the site list I received to debug is again not the best. The sites are overloaded and fail often with a message like "error establishing database connection". I guess because many try to submit here.

    And to be honest I think thats the problem in general. What I did now is some sort of "re-download 3 times in a row and give up if nothing comes along". This will be in next update but it will still not fix the problem for the quality of the sites.

    People whine about anything and in the end it always comes down to me debugging sites and engines realizing that there is nothing wrong. It's disappointing but till now I don't see much I can improve here.

    You know what I need...URLs where you think SER should have posted but did not! Thats all I asked to debug your problem. Simple as that.

    Naturally I respect your efforts and private time as well.

    I was referring to the month being passed by now - and problems with emails (site login - see below) are still there.

    How can we help you identify the problem with the following:
    - Log in issues (wrong password/username) - sitewise
    - Verification sequence - So we know for sure verification is done prior to log in on sites
    - Captcha issues where no captchas are present, but gsa ser keeps trying anyway

    *Edit

    These problems has nothing to do with over-spammed sites or overcrowded sites
    They are there and causes 90% of the problems
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de

    Log in issues (wrong password/username) - sitewise

    Nothing to worry here. This happens if SER tries to login anyway even if it was not able to verify by email (no ling in email)

    Verification sequence - So we know for sure verification is done prior to log in on sites

    No clue what you mean by that. In the log yous ee exactly when it verifies something and how.

    Captcha issues where no captchas are present, but gsa ser keeps trying anyway

    You got a sample URL? I don'T see this on my end.

    ---

    In the end it's always the data you guys don't send me. I NEED THE URL TO DEBUG WITH! Nothing else.


  • magicallymagically http://i.imgur.com/Ban0Uo4.png
    Surely I can make a log and add the mentioned urls that causes such issues.

    However, it would make more sense to monitor a live-running setup, so you can see what the heck is going on. Not just for 5 minutes - but maybe longer to actually be "hands-on" when issues happens.

    99.999% of the links it tries to verify - get's removed - My guess, because of wrong submission and identification + a bug somewhere about usernames and passwords.

    Now the cause of wrong submission can be many:
    - Wrong captcha input
    - Wrong input
    - Wrong identification
    - Wrong username/password
    - Missing verification
    - Banned email
    - Banned ip
    - Site down failure
    - Proxy error
    - etc. etc..

    We do know for a fact, that something is not as it should be - question is where it is and how to solve it.

    - Is GSA SER really doing identification correctly?

    By isolating the engines (pr. category) and run a stress-test, we will discover if GSA Ser are able to handle identification pr. engine/Category.
    What i'm saying is disable all categories except one - and do a stress-tests based on live verified links.
