SEOLinkVine down again.

21 replies
I have been trying to add articles over the last couple of days to SEOLinkVine.com and found the site loading inconsistently. Now its on like permanent mysql error.

Are you getting this error as well?

    Yes it's been down for a long time today but I notice it's back up again. This appears to be an ongoing problem, very frustrating and can't be passed off as teething problems with a new service anymore. I've got doubts creeping in now not just because of the continued service problems but I keep finding my articles on junk .info blogs and little to no increase in ranking for my sites.

    I tend to give these types of services 4 to 6 months so it's still early days in that respect. But having just seen SERPassist I'm tempted to jump ship if SEOLV doesn't start to improve.

      Hey Phil, I'm on vacation with my wife and daughter this week, but I'm all over this. We upgraded our server late last week to a mammoth server as well. The downtime appears completely random and doesn't have anything to do with overload etc. I know it can be annoying when a server is down, so thanks for hanging in there. We're on it.

        Every Single Time (& i mean, every single time) i've gotten an email that i have new articles in the queue, i've logged in, and waited... waited... waited... waited.. and gave up on trying to approve the articles.

        This has happened enough that i've given up on the whole thing.

        Adios.

          I also am starting to question my decision to go with SEOLinkVine. The first couple of weeks were fine--got lots of my articles published on a good number of sites. Saw some movement on my rankings. But then I noticed that my articles stopped getting published. I put in a support ticket, but the guy who responded said I was not selecting enough categories. That was hogwash. I was selecting every category I could. But...I went back anyway and selected even more categories, even those that had nothing to do with my article topic. Three days later (or about 10 days now since I first published), that article has ZERO links. It's spun at about 62%, and is well written (I do this for a living). As I say, I'm thinking I should be looking elsewhere for my links. SEOLinkVine is starting to look like a lot of hype.

            I've had no issues using the service and am getting my articles published frequently. Please quit so there is less competition for my articles. I now have two sites sitting at #2 and I have some affiliate links in some review articles that are getting a high CTR.

    Site is still down yet again, with a mysql error. I'll hang in there a bit while longer, but maybe because I'm just too patient.

    Yeah, even their "support" area is down, as well.
    So much for submitting a ticket.

      Yes... it's all hosted on the same server. We're well aware when any of our sites go down. Yes, I understand why you're frustrated. I would be too. If you can tell by my tone, I am probably more frustrated than you. I'm on a family vacation and yet am sitting at the PC with my web host.

      I can assure you that this problem will NOT go on for much longer. I am extremely "anal" about things like this and cannot think about anything else until the problem(s) is/are resolved.

      I apologize. All I can say is I'm aware and it will be fixed.

    If I may ask...how much are you folks paying (per month)?

    Also, are you getting unlimited sites?

    I know that the WSO price is $47 right now at 30%.

    That is the same price as "The Link Juicer" which is highly recommended. They promise about 1500 backlinks, which I would guess indicates that one site is included there.

    I'm paying 47 a month and am still holding out but have been experiencing down times since the beginning.

    Honestly it's getting very frustrating =/

    the service is great when it works, but I'm getting a 50% success rate and thats just for logging in (ill successfully log in in the morning but not in the afternoon for example).

    Price is $47 a month. There are times when it's busier during the day, so evenings and weekends tend to be better and less congested.

    but if you're paying for a service, shouldn't that have a 24/7 uptime or at least a 99.999999 percent uptime?

    The site being down is frustrating, however, I've been wondering about the article submissions as well.

    I have one article that has been approved 59 times since the end of May, however, none in the last 10 days or so.

    Another stuck in the 30's, one in the 20's, and one that has only been approved 2 times in the last 6 days.

    I have all articles set for a maximum of 10 submissions a day, unlimited submissions.

    Can't believe there are only 59 blogs in the system for my niche.

    Not to mention the other categories that I selected to try to get greater submissions.

    Approval rate is at 94%, so it shouldn't be the writing. All articles are 500 words plus.

    I can understand some growing pains, I would just like to see some solid answers and not a canned response.
