Thread: WHo has used ScraperBox?

Hello, has anyone used it before? Is it blackhat? Or can it be used without being a blackhatby not abusing it? Can anyone post their reviews?

I've never heard of it but I already don't like the word 'scraper'. Things with that in the title are usually bad news.

why? thjey say all backlinks it creates is related to your niche but the problem is the comment

It sounds like an autobot poster. The one I'm familiar with and have seen pop up is xrumer. I would have to say that this is blackhat although you might not be dinged by Google but I webmasters and most forum users hate it when they see these autopostings. Most times they are deleted and it becomes a numbers game. If this program can post 1,000 forum posts or blog posts and 80% get deleted, you still have 200. I wouldn't recommend it although you can use it to find forums and blogs to post to manually which I don't have a problem with. I would think that Google would see that the same post with the same backlink appears on x number of sites and basically not count them because it has determined they were posted by these autobot programs. I don't know but I wouldn't want to test it using my sites.

Because most of them will be deleted and it sounds like a blackhat technique, as AaronNeal said. It's better quality if you take the time to comment yourself, especially if you have something substantive to say.

I just checked and it looked like they use automated tools. I would stay well away from it.
