    Not entirely sure what you mean. Can you still use scrapebox and xrumer to create links -yes.

    Are they effective - only google knows.

      What about the people who use these services and get results?

      No, they are not dead. They are both alive and well.

      As you were.

        He did say that in a "tongue in cheek" manner.

        The more people start thinking theat SB and XR is dead, the better it will be for those left using it.

    Yes, my post was definitely sarcasm.

    Tools like Scrapebox and Xrumer can be effective. Just don't generate thousands of links in one day and zero the next. Mix Scrapebox / Xrumer into your other link building campaigns. Instead of "blasting" away at thousands of sites a day, stick to a lower number. 50,100, etc, depending on the age of your website and how many backlinks you already have.

    Slow and steady wins the race.

    I'm sure they both are still effective. I just don't find them very useful and I get annoyed myself with all the spam so I don't see the need in using those tools when other methods work better for me and do not piss off people.

    The new Google Algorithym does not have a large impact on these link softwares actually. I have ranked and still rank sites exclusively using these softwares. Ofcourse I incorporate Article Submission, Social bookmarks, and much more, but I have ranked various sites using just Xrumer or just Scrapebox. I just ranked a site last week using just a 5k blast of Xrumer for a adsense CPC 3.18 word with 6k exact searches. It is making me around $7-10 every day right now.

    They won't die so soon.. haha people has paid lot of money for such softwares and even if they don't work some other software will come. Anyway to answer your question I never used any of those softwares because i never felt it necessary but one of my close friend is always a software maniac and just for a test he did it on a 1 month old not in use domain and the domain ranked on page 1 for just 1 blast.

      I'm assuming the keywords he ranked for had low competition? I've found the same results with low comp KW's. Low comp doesn't necessarily mean low income from the site.

    Why would they suddenly stop working? They are only tools that automate the linkbuilding process.

    Google's algorithm can't see what tools you are using to build links. All Google can see is a footprint that you leave across many websites while using those tools. It's only naturally for Google to take a common instance of text, HTML, etc. and say "Hey, this looks like spam on this site, let's compare it with the billions of others in our database and see if it shows up a lot."

    No, Scrapebox and Xrumer aren't dead, just those people who fail to understand that they can't use the default settings and spam to their hearts content and expect it to still be effective.

    Minimize your footprints and use some imagination and you'll survive any algorithm change.

      If you have a good lists or you are able to find good blogs to comment, Scrapebox works great for you. If you can't find good blogs is not working good and Google's algorithm change has nothing to do with it.

      I can say that 57$ I spent on Scrapebox it was one of the greatest investments in my life. Even if comments will not work anymore, I still have about 20 addons (including chess - it teaches patience SO needed in seo) that help everyone who has anything to do with SEO.

        I love Love LOVE ScrapeBox!

        It's a brilliant piece of software that has an insane amount of uses and possibilities... Anyone who thinks that it's only a blog commenter should NOT be using this tool!

        Why would Google's Algorithm update affect the usefulness or effectiveness of this tool in anyway?! That's b/c it doesn't...

        "Super-Google representative, a Mr M. Cutts, has appeared in another Webmaster video on YouTube, and he answers a question on just this topic - How many changes did Google make to their primary search algorithm in 2009..?"
        Hmm, difficult to guess isn't it? Turns out its around 1 change per day, about 350-400 changes per year.



        Google slapped some beeches who cares. Nothing has changed. They do it all the time.


        CHEERS!

    i don't think you understand the recent google updates, they where more targeted at low quality / low rent sites sitting high up the serp's providing no content back to the visitors. Google, with the farmer update has once again upped it's required quality, like all other updates. This update targeted onsite quality, the last large update, targeted links.

    This was really to be expected, If you build quality links, and quality sites the only thing you'll be obsessing over when google updates come out is how much better your rankings get =)

      I'm not sure if your post was dedicated to me, but I think I understand changes, of course as much as it possible with own tests and SERP's observations. I did some tests and I can say Scrapebox still works for me. It's just a tool, you decide how to use it and if it helps you or not. I always say that most important factor in SEO is man and his mind

        That comment was more directed at the OP of the thread. The update was more about onsite content then anything else. While this could filter down to back links over time, i think the amount of back links affected will be small.

    The algorithm only affected content farms and scraper sites.
    Scrapebox and Xrumer are both used for a different type of link building.
    So no reason why the new algo change should have affected them.
