i created must have domain filter in options to get .gov links. WHat is see in messages when project is running that !.gov is matching with non .gov urls.

I used create domain filter button in options and than selected must have filter in what type of filter do you want dialogue box.

this gave me !.gov with checkbox , checked.. 

This should match domains with .gov extension as i created must have domain filter and in 2-3 days only 1 single domain has come up from my list of  11 million .

same is with any other domain filter that i have created, very little or no domains at all in 2-3 days.






Logically !.gov should match as it is showing but problem is skipping those is not resulting in .gov domains or any other filter that i am creating with domain filter for tld. Giving little to no domains.

    So you are wanting .gov domains only, but giving SER a list of 11 million domains. Why not just use grep or something similar to extract the .gov domains from that 11 million list and just feed those to SER instead, as the way you're currently going about things is a massive time waste.

    Also, if the urls you are giving are just domains, then it's doubtful you will find any .gov that matches engines. Targets that will be submittable to on .gov domains are usually buried in sub pages of blogs or forgotten cms installs - they won't usually be accessible from the domain homepage. Honestly you're better off just scraping footprints with a site:.gov operator

    Hey, it sounds like the domain filter isn't working as expected. The !.gov syntax should match only .gov domains, but it's not filtering out non-.gov URLs. Can you try using a ends with filter instead of must have? Also, double-check that the filter is applied correctly and there are no other filters conflicting with it.

    @bchub you are right it is not working as expected, it is matching to non gov urls but it is not finding. gov urls. I will try with  ends with 


    @backlinkaddict   !.gov means should "NOT" match .gov TLD  
    you are right it should not match but it is must have domain filter that has !.gov as a sub-filter i think. so it works probably like this 
    skip not .gov  so it finds !.gov and skips all but .gov . Problem is it is not giving back any .gov at all.


    or just manually search .gov in verified files/folder. won't take more than few hours manually.

    The correct entry to add is as follows if you ONLY want.GOV urls
    D:!.gov

    See video how to do it here: https://www.loom.com/share/c0986c5f24a1407796f6568e0e0c92f8?sid=5f74f0e6-86bd-4ea2-87f4-a7043793a3b9

    @ksatul  Glad you're willing to try the ends with filter! In the meantime, I'm curious - have you checked the project logs to see if there are any errors or warnings related to the domain filter? Also, are you using any other filters in combination with the domain filter that might be affecting the results?

    i have tried various domain filter not just gov, nothing seems to work as it should.
    DOn't really have time to debug and all that. just set the filter and if it doesn't work than forget it, just waste of time really.

    thanks all for your time.

    i have fed 30 million links in the past for link building, works well for link building.
