Bought the video course. Its pure awesomeness. I will start building my own list when I get some time to breathe.
Waiting for you to release your next list.

Thanks for the review. I'll have a new list out at the end of the month I think.
@donaldbeck So I assume with scrapebox ONLY, I'll still learn exactly how u scrape thousands and thousands of unique domains right? Do you offer any refund period?
donaldbeckAdvanced SER Videos -> http://bit.ly/1ySrbwu | Learn SER For Free Step By Step -> http://sertips.com
Yes you can do everything with just SB. It's a very capable scraping tool.
If you already get similar success to me, there's no need to buy these videos. If you don't however, then you'll learn a lot and I do everything on the screen. Everything I do to make a 60k unique domain list I do on screen. Also there are videos for just SB(and hrefer and gscraper) in your case, that show you each technique I use 1 by 1. If I was making stuff up, I think there would already be complaints in here by now lol.
donaldbeck - this sounds very interesting to me as I am having serious issues with getting my head around effective/efficient scraping. One question though - of the 60K lists you're able to build, how many of those would fall into the "contextual" category of articles, social and wikis? I'm not interested in a bunch of image comments and other "junk" tiers. Thanks in advance, and I hope to be sending you some $$ soon.

As you know I search for everything pretty much when making the lists. But in that specific list that I made in the videos, there was 13,195 unique domains that came from wikis/social network/article links.
If I only scraped and posted to that kind of link, I guess it would be more.
Just bought it, and on the email, i got this "Seller has no file uploaded for this product currently. Please contact the seller at rugbyy06@yahoo.com.tw"

Just PM me your screencast.com email and I'll send you everything if I didn't already.
edit: You didn't get anything because I set everything up manually.
Hey donaldbeck, this is really good stuff! (at least for me, someone who is still trying to wrap my brain around effective, efficient scraping). Thanks for putting it together.
I went through it once already, and I think going through it again, while implementing it (then maybe doing that again a couple more times to get it to really sink in to my thick skull! lol), and I should be in good shape to be able to make FAR better use of SER.
Cheers, and here's to a Happy New Year to all the good GSA SER forum folks who have helped me so much!
Just wanted to say that I got your video about 2 weeks ago and it is awesome. You took me from complete noob to being about to support over 50 projects in GSA. Thanks!
I purchased it today and as far as I can see by now (haven't watched all videos) it's very good stuff you get for your money. I knew some of these techniques but a lot was new to me. Thanks for this great guide.

As you can see in the OP Mitch, I manually activate it. Therefore it obviously takes a variable amount of time. In the case of your purchase, I was sleeping, so you had to wait longer than normal. I'll do it now.
Just tried with 100k keywords and 245 footprints and still crashing!
What am I doing wrong?

Are you talking about in scrapebox? Just use less keywords if it's crashing. The amount you can use will depend on your hardware. Experiment and find the amount you can successfully use.
I have to say both the video and content quality of this guide is great. It taught me one or two things that I had never thought of before and will help with my scraping efforts.
I recommend it for anyone looking to get a bit more knowledge in the world of scraping site lists.
I asked the question to avoid crashing not because it's actually crashed L-) . Am watching videos now and already scraping so I figured the amount . Textmechanic in did crashed when I tried to random 200 kwds merged with a lot of footprints ( even big file tool ) But i reduce amount of footprint to ''all from one platform'' and it went well . Let it run for one hour , got 200k urls . Is this good result ?
donaldbeckAdvanced SER Videos -> http://bit.ly/1ySrbwu | Learn SER For Free Step By Step -> http://sertips.com
Sounds good enough to me. If you let it run the whole day you'll get several million, which is plenty.
donaldbeck got it . Let it run I did not see all the videos yet jest out of curiosity want to ask you , is there somewhere tips about content you using to test the lists , how to write better blog comments prohabs etc ?
@donaldbeck Interesting series! This helped me put together some of the ideas I already had but into a usable way - thanks.
(Hope you don't mind me asking publicly) I see you mention proxyrack. I am doing their trial and find them poor so far. Are you still using them with good results?
donaldbeckAdvanced SER Videos -> http://bit.ly/1ySrbwu | Learn SER For Free Step By Step -> http://sertips.com
@dimitribanks - If I was going to really try to write some good comments, I would do it by hand. Write out a bunch of comments, and then spin them with the best spinner manually. But since I don't care, I simply pull random lines from a huge text file and use that as my blot comments.
@samx - Here's a scrape I've been doing the last 2 days.
@donaldbeck Thanks, I increased threads and lower time outs and it is doing better. I think the key is lots of threads since some of the proxies it uses are obviously not the best.
donaldbeckAdvanced SER Videos -> http://bit.ly/1ySrbwu | Learn SER For Free Step By Step -> http://sertips.com
Any kind of proxies are fine for scraping really. You can use a cheap pre scanned public proxy service and still get good results. I used to use 'kensai's proxy service' with good results. There are lots more out there though, I'm sure lots of them are good.
donaldbeckAdvanced SER Videos -> http://bit.ly/1ySrbwu | Learn SER For Free Step By Step -> http://sertips.com
I just invited everyone who purchased to view the videos, I'll send the resource files later today, I just have no time right now. It's chinese new year and I have to go do some BS, people are waiting for me blah blah you get the point.
@donaldbeck - could you give another hints to find good proxy provider for scraping ? Tried to find kensai's proxy service, but no success so far.
donaldbeckAdvanced SER Videos -> http://bit.ly/1ySrbwu | Learn SER For Free Step By Step -> http://sertips.com
I'd imagine that any of them would work. I used kensai with no trouble for a long time. BHW has a proxy section, just look at the reviews for people selling public proxy lists.
