Default PyroGenius Commenter vs. ScrapeBox

Hello warriors,

I am looking to buy software which would help me to create some backlinks to my blog.

Now I am looking at these two :

http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...-discount.html

or

http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...ments-rss.html

What I should choose ? Or maybe you have better suggestions ?

Thanks,
Laurynas

I think PyroGenius is less complicated and easier to use, while ScrapeBox has more features for people who know how to use them

I have not used ScrapeBox, but I do have Pyro Genius, and I can vouch that it's easy to run ;overall a pretty decent product.

I think eventually, scrapebox will turn into an xrumer type application. Whereas pyrogenius has always been about someone getting a quick few backlinks. It isnt supposed to be thrashing 20k blogs a run.

In anycase, (Me being the developer), ive got a tonne more things finished. Including PR checking of the page, PR checking of the overall website, Commenting on more then just wordpress blogs, And a form to check if your comments are posted.

I think the fact im adding something to check whether your comments have been approved goes a long way to proving how much i believe in this product. Sure as hell wouldnt be making it if i thought the product couldnt get comments through at all :P.

Sorry bit slow to reply. I dont come here often .

End of this week. We have a feature creep happening at the moment where everytime i add something i think i should add just one more thing. And so the cycle continues.

Between now and end of the week you should get an email with your DL link to the updated version

Ok, I own both of these and will have to honestly say that Scrapebox is definitely a better bang for buck software.

PyroGenius is good for what it is but lacks a lot of features compared to scrapebox.

Scrapebox is constantly being updated with new features. I emailed the creator and asked if he could implement blogengine blogs because the majority auto approve your comments and have a high PR. A little less than a week later Scrapebox can now post to blogengine platform.

It's funny because there is a blog commenting service offered in the WSO section that charges $10 for 50 blogs-100 blog comments (i forgot how many exactly) and after ordering the service I realized they were posting to blogengine. I can now literally blast out thousands of comments that actually stick! Scrapebox has a page rank checker and can individually check PR of each individual page in a domain. It also has a link verifier so you can see if your links were posted.

It also can post trackbacks and send hits to your website/articles, etc ... I mean the thing has a built in MP3 player LoL ...

If you had to pick between the two, I would say Scrapebox wins hands down.

Ok so I just did a small harvest with scrapebox and grabbed 366 links for a few keywords.

I did a commenting blast and got 78 links posted and verified! That is 78 do follow back links with my keyword in the anchor text that took less than 10 minutes. That is using no proxies and with a 4ms (I guess its ms?) delay between posting. I'm sure if i used proxies and had 1ms delay I could have done it in half the time.

This was just a test run. I'm thinking about getting a test domain to do a 10k harvest and blast the comments to see how many stick. Hmm...

I own both products; ScrapeBox is a much better product. It is much more stable, it deals with proxies in a better manner, and it is much, much faster. I could write a book here, but if you do not want to take my word for it, then buy both of them, and in the end you will agree with me.

Hi Kurt,

OK, I did. You were right.

Pyro uses .Net Framework. Pyro won't start at all without errors saying that I don't have .Net installed. My WinXP control panel says I do (3.5). Oh well.

Meanwhile ScrapeBox is running, waiting for me to give it a job.

I'm sure I'll get Pyro working but if I had known Pyro used .Net, I would have passed.

I own Pyro but not ScrapeBox. ScrapeBox is on my list of "tools to try", so bare that in mind when reading the following.

Pyro has been pretty good to me. On average I can net about 3000 keyword-relevant urls on a harvest, and I usually have about a 35% success rate posting. I've not experienced any crashing so far.

What I like:
  • Not much of a learning curve
  • Fast and (in my experience) reliable
  • Posts on multiple platforms
  • Can do threaded or browser-based posting
  • Spinning syntax is the same as SEnuke, so it's natural to me

What I wish it had:
  • List of pre-generated footprints
  • More reliable proxy handling and harvesting
  • Pinger

Overall, I'm happy with it for the price I paid, and the dev is constantly updating it with new features so it's only getting better with time. If ScrapeBox really is leaps and bounds better as some people are saying, I'm excited to get my hands on it, because Pyro is already damn good so anything better would be genuinely awesome.

Hi Chris,

I got Pyro to work. It was not Pyro's fault at all.

Seems WinXP will not allow a .Net program to run from a network drive. I copied the folder to the Desktop, and Pyro now works fine.

I can't tell you about everything you like, but if you try ScrapeBox you will like the way it handles free proxies, or any proxy I'd imagine.

For those that don't have either. Both programs automatically harvest a free proxy list, which can be quite large. ScrapeBox found over 2,000 proxies. In Pyro, as you know, you choose the number of pages which controls the number of proxies. I used a low number of pages so it only found a few hundred (by my choice).

After either program finds the proxies they have a test feature to make sure the proxies are working. After the test you should delete the failed proxies. In ScrapeBox deleting the proxies consists of selecting a menu item Cleanup>Delete Failed proxies.

In Pyro I had to select each one, or shift select to choose several, to delete the proxy. In SB I got a list of approx 2,100 proxies which I whittled down to 39. If I would have done the same thing in Pyro with the click select method, even with shift select, I would not have been very happy.

I will play with the programs for a while to get a feel for them. When I am more comfortable I will write a short comparison of the two. It may help someone else out in the future.

Oh and SB has a pinger but I don't know anything else about it at this time.
