    @Rkt77 - I see your point, and I feel for you, but where would you (@Sven) draw the line as to what is acceptable practice with his tool, and what isn't?

    I agree with @Gooner, and I can see sven's dilemma, but I personally wouldn't get involved if it were me.
  • @2Take2 - In my opinion it's acceptable everything you do for your own or customer's website (tiers, mass spam, etc). But it is not acceptable to use that power to outrank websites that you are not the owner of with spam, porn links..
  • @Rkt77 I've also had someone blasting one of my good sites with 50k to 100k+ bad links at a time. Crap happens. However, your solution is a bad one. My first thought when I read you post was how can I harvest all those SER owner sites and scape the backlinks.

    haha yea @indylinks same I thought. However it'S no longer the point of adding this or not...cuz I will not. But I still can not accept people abusing the software for negative SEO.
  • OP, I feel your pain. A month back, I was badly negative SEO'd too. Shit happens. A veteran @ron here said to me that the niche is likely toxicated and might be worth to get out of it.
  • @Pratik
    Yeah dude, they fu*ked my $200 a day income, so it sucks.I won't bother with that niche anymore, there are really bad people who take down the competition. Even if their license gets banned, they'll buy a new one or use other tools. But I got to keep doing new sites and get over it. ;)

    @Rkt77 if you go into the money niches, it's common. It's standard. And it's the 'softest' of all the dirty tactics used there. Not many guys giving much about ethics in these niches, sorry.

    I agree it's completely unacceptable if somebody is doing this, but in the end, we spam our tiers with 'payday loans' 'kamagra' or 'casino' and whatever shit. We actually do the same to foreign sites every second you run SER, just with a different intention behind.

    If your site got penalized that easy, it's too weak to compete. As simple as that. Prepare to play with the 'big boys' in the dirty niches where neg seo, ddos and hacks are just common practice.
  • @indylinks, that was exactly my thought as well, and I've been doing this for a few days now. If you've got scrapebox, you can simply make a big merge file like this:
    "%kw%" -site:%kw% {KEYWORD}
    "www.%kw%" -site:%kw% {KEYWORD}
    "http://www.%kw%" -site:%kw% {KEYWORD}
    "http://%kw%" -site:%kw% {KEYWORD}

    Keep repeating these 4 lines with a lot of different keywords in the end to replace {KEYWORD}. Now you simply merge this file with all the urls which you want to scrape backlinks from. Though the urls should be like domain.tld in your keyword area as the merge file will add variations of http and www, as you can see in my example above. I recently ran this on a few domains and my result was 100k unique urls from 15k unique domains. And I usually identify sites which has made backlinks (using ahref) with gsa ser so I'm sure I can use a good portion of those links myself. The good thing about scraping these backlinks is that you already know they've been verified, though you probably won't be able to post to the majority of them, depending on how the backlinks has been made.
  • And to verify the ownership of your website GSA would need to implement such feature that it creates a html one-paged site which you'd upload on your hosting, and then it would check the website just like Google Webmaster Tools does it.

    I think it would be great feature to stop people from misusing this great tool!

    I think it would be a major pain in the ass for me and what about properties you don't own?
    How can they be verified?
