Appreciate your input. I'm tempted to buy your list and test it myself with my set up. Looking at the following, the submitted numbers are crazy high with very low verified numbers, and he's enabled blog comments as well.
Yes of course. The software will still run good without the sernuke engines add on.
The gsa ser list should give you much better VPM than your previous list as it contains working sites - dead sites are frequently removed from their list and new sites are added automatically.
I've been running this campaign for a week, using a sitelist from gsaserlists.com.
The number of verified links is still not optimal.
In your opinion, what could be improved? What else can I do to make it better?
It could be an issue with his set up such as the emails or even proxies. But I'll test it and see.
I’d be happy to support this effort to test that list. Let me know if you would like me to pay for half of the expense of the list.
I'm sorry, but this isn't possible as I'm strictly trying to keep the lists limited to a small number of buyers. Currently, the monthly subscription is also sold out, with 60 members already joined. I've already granted access to @sickseo and will consider his feedback to implement better automated approaches.
Since this topic is about GSASERLists.com, I’d like to explain that my lists go through a live algorithm to ensure all links are active and match the engines. I'm not using GSA Platform Identifier for this process, unlike most other GSA link list providers. This means I can confidently say that most of the links are active, and any non-working ones are automatically removed throughout the day. A link may be re-added to the lists if the algorithm detects it has come back online. To verify this, I checked the verified link list, which includes around 757K targets, using Scrapebox’s Alive Check add-on. I’ve uploaded a video of the results in this comment. Even the few URLs marked as "Not Alive" were actually live, likely because I didn't use proxies during the check or due to the size of the webpages.
What concerns me about your process is that you mention using scrapebox in your process as well as a custom algorithm to check for live links.
I don't use such things to build and check my verified lists. I use GSA SER to do this. I suspect every user that purchases your list will also do the same. This is the only way to ensure that a site works and results in a verified link.
A site may still be live but have registration disabled or sending of emails disabled - only GSA SER can check if a site still yields a verified link - scrapebox and a custom algorithm can not do this.
I also don't use Scrapebox to check the lists. Everything is written in Python, and the algorithm follows the engines. That said, you're right. Although each target has gone through GSA SER, later checks can only verify if the target is GSA SER-friendly. They can't determine if registration is still possible without further checking, which is time and resource-consuming. So, I'm leaving those targets for GSA SER.
I didn't realise that you limited your sales of the site list. This is a very good thing - same with limited sales of the sernuke licenses - all helps keep sites alive for longer if less users are using them.
I understand about the resource usage to recheck lists. I'm running your list and the software is maxing out at 3gb ram already. Most likely because of the blog comments/guestbook sites with high obls. Normally I run just contextual and profile sources and I never see any issue with high memory usage.
@sickseo Thanks for leaving your honest review. I'm also interested in having you test my CatchE program, as I believe you're an expert in this field. If you're interested in testing the CatchE software, please let me know and I’ll provide you with access.
It's a set-and-forget program for managing your project's emails using fresh catch-all addresses. It would be great if you could also review the program and share your insights. I believe it's the best option available on the internet.
I'd be happy to test it out and let you know my thoughts. I've taken a brief look at it but never played with it properly.
I've been using my own system through zennoposter. Have a cheap cpanel hosting with 10 domains on it and zenno creates the catchalls for me via cpanel and exports the catchall emails in the right format for gsa or rankerx. Hence why I've not had a need to look elsewhere.

That sounds great. I’ll stay in touch with you via PM.
