Digi Traffic Accelerator, Anyone?

Anyone? Bueller?

I'm not continuing with it. I ran one campaign, and haven't been able to get it to open since. Tech support wanted me to hit help > logs but I couldn't due to the fact that it would crash on startup. So while the other products I've seen bear grabbing, I think this does not.

Thanks, Erik. Have you successfully been able to use any of Andy's products?

This was the first one, though the others I've seen look like very good wordpress plugins which I may just grab and test.

It looks like it just creates (spinnable) social bookmarks? I think these kinds of links have lost their power lately...

Not sure how effective they are by themselves? Maybe it adds to an already created SEO campaign but not sure how well it would work just by itself??

Any other thoughts on this software and the types of links it creates? Guess I may try the trial for just a buck.

Eric,

It looks like it posts to over 500 bookmark sites. I can see it really helping with indexing and for low competition/longtails that I may be trying to rank for.

I thought the launch videos from Andy where very interesting with the high and low gear sites listed and gave good advice on traffic, and the idea of automating things seemed a good idea to me, but after buying the trial I even was not able to install the program on my computer, and did not received an answer to my support ticket after 24 hours, so I cancelled the recurring subscription. You can read more about my experience with this product on my blog at secret marketing links - Digi Traffic
This is not the first time I tried a product from Andy but I had never luck with his products so far, even if he seems to be genuine.

First full disclosure - I am a DTA affiliate. I am also in Andy's peer group.

Second, sorry if the past versions crashed for you. it is written in Microsoft Dot Net 4, and yeah my Microsoft machine sucks too.

however post beta versions run like a dream on my win7 64 bit.
you can get to the log files via explorer, although the urls are cryptic.

I am not sure why DR support could not take you further. That's a question for digiresults.
Ultimately, not all machines will work with every permutation of stuff. But you can always refund if it doesn't work. Or use another machine like a laptop or windows VPS or cloud.

The TRIAL launch is $1 so I really suggest you just find out for yourself Chris.
No amount of any one elses results will sway you, I am sure!
In fact I'd hope not.

All the people saying
"NO IT CAN'T WORK"
I'd suggest you try it and not "assume".

I'll get in to the complex discussion of how SEO works in the next message!

All I can tell you is I TRIED IT
and I've got "HUMAN" results within 5 and then 10 days.
(by human I mean non robot, like newsletter signups, video views and facebook likes)

My SEO is google dancing like it's on crack
and my video views went up 300%.

Sure it all sound glamorous and hype.
That's why you need to try it for yourself and not be a lemming (no offence to lemmings or any one else).

In the "real world", my world, in 10 days, I have about 20 visits I can concretely attribute to DTA, because I did what I could to make sure those pages were only DTA promoted.
I even turned RSS ping off on the blog before each test.

Sure I can't state 100% because they are linked internally somewhere

I can't reliably state what the knock-on effect is.
All I can tell you is SEO wise my blog generally is google dancing in the positive direction.

On the version I did, without DTA, it is running along like the normal pathetic "build it and they will come" results. Aka PATHETIC. That has RSS and content updates. It trickles, like non promoted or trusted sites do.

I know 20 visits in the real world may sound pathetic, but these are actual potential buyers. Not stray traffic. They are in my funnel.
To achieve that, on a NIL DEMAND BRAND like DTA in 10 days, using free traffic, is pretty exciitng in my book.

For $1, I can't see why any one would not at least actually try it for themselves.
I really don't!

If you see no benefit on day 6, you cancel!

Prove it for yourself.
Don't listen to my (or any one elses) results.

If you want hype and false claims and dream groupies, we have the special offers forum for that.
I apologise upfront if that touches any ones nerve, but this is real life, not projected incomes of something that happened once, to somebody, who knew somebody.

You can prove this one way or another for yourself for one buck.

I'm not sure why this thread even exists - LOL

I've only replied because I am fed up with nay slayers who assume on third hand info.

Peter

To answer the site source questions, if you did the pre launch freeline content, he gave you a list of 400+ such sites they use.

If you read the report and watched the video, you'll know WHY these 400+ sites were selected.

NO
there is not any article directory sites in the list, like Ezine,
because the "content" offered (spintax supported) is of bookmark length.
i.e. a few sentences.

Think more facebook wall, than article directory.

OK let's get in to the long and tedious debate about SEO

I will keep coming back to edit this thread, so I haven't finished typing yet!

This is only MY version of the truth.
SEO is not black and white and NO ONE has a 100% success rate, or they'd be infinitely rich already!

This is not the DR "line". Any where we agree is purely coincidence, or fact ;-)

The more backlinks you have, the more "chances" you have of getting found.
Purely because even 1 visitor per month of traffic, may see and click a link. They may not of course. But the chance exists.
aka more links, more chances.

In "SEO" terms, if those links are not FOUND by the search engines (ie google, bing, yahoo) there is zero benefit of SEO.

In "SEO" terms, if those found links are not then INDEXED, as in they are included in the directory, then the benefit is a LOT less. But it is NOT zero.
We can argue about the scale, but let's pretend it is 0.001 points.
IMHO that is close to the truth. I own enough sites to say that!

So for every 1000 of these found but un-indexed backlinks you do, you may get 1 point - i.e. the equivalent of 1 blog comment (yeah no follow, yeah 1 point).

So brain dead backlinkers, do 100,000 backlinks, like these, because they can.
Good luck to them.
IMHO that approach is dumb. Reason coming.

Search engines (like google) KNOW they are being "played" by these sorts of links and hence they continually devalue the worth of any links they believe to be "engineered"

However, even with googles resources, it is hard to separate truth from fiction, quickly or reliably.

So in LOW COMPETITION areas, where there is little else fresh trusted content, albeit social discussion, crap can still win.

People DO make money out of crap, all day, every day.
I can't be bothered doing crap, because it is short lived and takes too long!
For me it is a penny pinching business.
It does not make business sense - even with third world rate out sourcing.

Let alone the ethics and screwing the Internet up for everyone else.

SEO DEBATE PART 2

OK so if "spammy" links are such low score and it kinda sucks, why do we all still do it?

why does senuke exist and cost $$$ per month
serobot, traffic kahuna, web2mayhem, sicksubmitter, scrapebox, xrumer, etc.

and countless WSO special backlink offers and services every month?

Because like I just said, CRAP SELLS every day.
And as I said, Google can only ever play catch up, unless they want to penalise the good guys.

Which they have. And will continue to do so.
Hence the 100+ algorithm updates every year.
Plus manual reviewers still exist, albeit it y% of the original work force.

So first things first.
if everyone used the same sites to spam links, they'd get less effective.

Look at angela profile links
look at ezine articles
look at the role of digg and twitter these days

everything still works, but to what extent?
less than 0.001 of a point?

DTA has picked a set of sites.
My understanding is they update this list, monthly.

Many of these sites are off the radar.
Why?

Didn't I just tell you?

In the freeline content, they explained how a SPREAD of tactics is beneficial.
So some know, some unknown
some follow, some no follow
some high pr, some minus pr
etc.

So all we are saying is

BACKLINK DIVERSITY

any SEO "guru" should conceed that point.
it's about being "SEO natural".

OK now we get to the meat.
And why DTA and anything like it, has even a remote chance of helping you...

I'm not sure I even want to give this info away,
so I'm going to eat toast and come back.


BTW did I mention it was $1 to find out about DTA for yourself yet?
Sure with SEO we normally have to wait like 90 days to see a measurable result.
But DTA also uses SOCIAL aspects (i.e. bookmarking sites HUMANS actually browse - who knew?)
As I mentioned already,
in my tests, DTA has brought me measurable and attributable "HUMAN results" within 48 hours, every time I have run it.

The accumulating effect is still positive.

Is it ALL you will ever need to do?
Absolutely NO WAY IN HELL!

Is it worth $40 per month?
Well only IF you earn from $40 per month from it.

Can you? Will you? Should you? ever earn $40+ per month...

Well that's down to way more than 1 backlinking tool

OK toast, then "I will be back" - LOL

This DTA look crazy because just now i run the tool and only 75% progress, my death by captcha account balance captcha can submit already went from 6k to 1k but when i login to the yahoo account and check the email verification, i just saw 3 email only.

What happen with the DTA tool and i am so disappointed with it?

@wrc1010 raise a ticket with DigiResults.
Captcha use with DeathByCaptcha is under $2 per round for sure. I don't have an exact figure.

They also just pushed out an update, so quit and relaunch, although I am aware of no issues.

During the beta, the 1 time my machine crashed during a blast, DTA resumed where it left off on reboot.


@milla04
OK well you got me with time vs $1 ;-)

Point is DTA is supposed to be an 8 minute tool!
You let if run in the background for the hour or whatever, but your input should be done in 8 minutes.
AKA
what you want to promote and how you're going to present it (socially)


OK so back to the nitty gritty.

I think the majority will say that SEO and organic and social traffic, is NOT quick or non intensive.

As I mentioned already, the crap sellers can just "blast" stuff out, and are happy with the short term results. They just rinse and repeat.

That isn't what DTA is aimed at AFAIK.


The way I run my business, will be very different to many of you.
I mainly do AUTHORITY sites and back that up with my own network of properties.

The way "I" do authority sites, takes time and effort, and invariably MANUAL labour (outsourced, but non the less, human labour)

I am aware of most systems for authority publishing, and I haven't found a single one that is any quicker, or adds any advantage to my own methods.

Tricks and fads come and go. They don't really impact on authority publishing.
There is no "loop hole" to being the best.

Over the years, keeping market share (authority) has become more difficult.
partly because of all the "noise" from the crap shifters, if not in itself, because of googles necessary counter measures.

Now backlinks and SEO is only 1/6th of the battle plan.

We can argue about the percentage.

But it used to be just "existing" (those were the days).
Then it was content.
Then it was backlinks.

Then social raised its head and ducked down again.

Then the ass fell out of SEO.

I'll explain in a later post.
And offer an answer for what you are really asking

I know that there are mixed results so far but it's only a buck for the trial so I'm gonna take this for a whirl tomorrow.

What are the sites? Social bookmarks? Like socialadr types?

Does anyone getting good search engine ranking after using DTA and how many time you use the DTA to promote the site?

Okay,

I have absolutely ZERO experience with DTA so please excuse my ignorance. From what I am reading, it looks like this tool has the functionality of an SeNuke X or a magic submitter, but instead of submitting several links - this only deals with bookmarks.

If that is the case instead of running DTA in the background - can this software be ran on a VPS like the other two I mentioned earlier?

Also..

Does anyone know where I can buy some good private proxies...without a monthly subscription? I'd like to buy them outright. Thanks.

Ya the captcha needs to be fixed.
I HAD the latest version, when i started the tool.
CAPTCHAs correctly solved:Today:2908
This was one on use of the tool. Not even sure who many links it created.

THIS IS INSANE.

I am using Digi Traffic Accelerator version 1.0.4
Found this in a log file.

I also only got 83 links created.
According to the log file 168 emails were created.

Not sure i will keep it at this rate.

I did a manual update and there was an update, but that used up all my captcha's not sure ill get more at this time.

Lets hope this gets better, seems more like BETA software to me at this time.

I can echo what was said earlier ... it worked well functionally, nicely set-up, but with the additional cost of HMA (convenient proxy service) and burning through a LOT of captchas (the major expense) the total cost per month was looking too high for me, "just" for social bookmarks.

I've no doubt they'd be useful but I'd rather invest that same figure in higher quality links. I cancelled the trial after 4 days, too soon to see any impact (at least, I didn't see any).

Steve

Used it, amongst hundreds of other push-button tools.

PROS:
Clean and easy to use interface.

CONS:
Creates 50 links at once, not the 500 advertised. Took over a week to get up to the 500 level.
Terribad reporting.
Over-priced ($20/mo for Pligg links? GTFO)

Ok, which platforms does this submit to? Just pligg? Anyone using captcha sniper in conjunction with this?

I personally love this tool - my first run it created 192 backlinks, 2nd run 329. I did not use proxies. I'm going to continue with this.

I also like how you can spin the anchor text too :-)

Thanks,
Dave.

Andy gave some great content prior to releasing this and he is very aware of some the problems you guys are facing

As you thru andy other products it will work out fine what i believe is that with more users now i think that some more bugs are being work out.

I just got an email from him

So what would be the difference between this and BMD?

Their help is very slow so I didn't get enough time to try it out. I finally found a few hours to try to make it work, but only got about 10 links even with the instructions I finally got from them -- took three tries to get enough info to make a go at making it work. Unfortunately, I had the date wrong in my mind and after only a couple of days to actually try to make it work their subscription payment kicked in. Now they won't refund! I'm having to dispute it through paypal which takes a couple of months. They even gave me the wrong link as to how to cancel with paypal! Oh well, live and learn.

Thanks DrewG. I guess I should keep an eye out for the Captcha Sniper for BMD

Did another full run today:

Added a whole bunch of new proxies, and ran it at 1:38 PM (more on this later).

Created 438 social bookmarks.

I recommend rotating out your proxies every once in a while, fresh proxies are always good.

Also, I try to do my bookmarking runs outside of the 3-6pm window, reason being, is because DeathbyCaptcha is typically overloaded between 3-6 and the process is slow and the program doesn't create as many backlinks in this period.

I am getting a very high success rate, and usually have 600+ bookmarks on almost every run. I don't however, use proxies. I have a VPN that I rotate IP's on. This seems to work well.

Just finished reading all the posts and by the sounds of it, I'm better sticking with BMD.

Thanks everyone

James Scholes

This is a fantastic piece of soft. Only downside is you can't add your own list of bookmarking sites like BMD

Have few questions about DTA.

does it provide any account management options, like removing dead url from the accounts already created (which may help to reduce the captcha usage)

Is captcha cost too high


How is the support

Will they open the sales again (seems to be closed now)

their support sucks. im waiting for more than 3 days now. still no reply

Got to admit I've not yet tried these out, proxies and scrapers and auto account builders scare me a bit - but I want to try DTA (having had it for 2 months!).
Can anyone tell me what BMD is please - Google thinks it's Births, Marriages and Deaths!!
Thanks
(Non Techie) John

OK - thanks, just found Bookmarking Demon mentioned elsewhere!

Hi John,
BMD is Bookmarking Demon, a tool for social bookmarking.

many people said that this was a piece of a crap. but i decided to try it however. yes it was really a crap, guys never, ever buy Digi Traffic Accelerator. my success rate was really poor. 8 out of 239 successfully created accounts.
Just going to cancel the subscription.

Stephen Gilbert here.

I use this software daily. Gets me 250+ bookmarks a run, and you can of course do more runs if you wish. I only have 4 accounts created though. I imagine if i had 25+ i'd get many more bookmarks.

-Steve

Hello!

It's really hard and complicated to use. I tried a campaign, and haven't been able to get it to open since. Tech support told me to go to help > logs but I couldn't because it would crash on startup. But their other products works smooth, this one just have issues.

Best of Luck!

Does anyone know how to get this software to auto confirm the accounts? It is so frustrating having so many unconfirmed bookmarking accounts yet in the manual it says it automatically does it.

Guys, If you are serious about getting into SEO. Then you need all type of website. Some people think that you can't get in the first page with this. Well your right but you can't get iun the first page of google with only Web 2.0. This is not natural. If you want to get first page of google the bets ways is to get link diversity. the combination of all sort of link pointing back to your website will result in higher ranking. so certainly this is the best bookmarking tools that you can get. only that will not put you in the game of SEO. but, including this tool with other SEO tool then you got a winning position in the SEO battle!

Hope that helped a few of you guys!

Who, Andy Fletcher from Depeche Mode? LOL

After Google-ing it: I'd recommend you to concentrate on natural, organic traffic and reliable PPC. There are lots of products like this and most of them are just sending you robots.

I'd stick with new age SEO, SM, YouTube marketing and PPC, including Facebook ads.
Programs promising traffic either send fake traffic (robots) or they direct traffic to you from long-shut-down sites or levitating domains...

I bought it because of the trial, and tested it during the last 3 days.

I am not impressed...

First run with a normal email address 610 accounts created.

Next day, 77 accounts with a Gmail - then I actually realized that my Death By Captcha account was banned! (Great, down the drain with a balance of $50)

The I tried decpatcher - and got about 25 errors saying that decaptcher timed out...

I send their suppor at mail, and got a response today that they had updated the software.

Great, article publishing chrashed three times with no action, bookmarking crashed two times and finally started.

Same stunt, again a error code from the captcha service because of time out. Result: 17 links posted (on a total of 987 accounts).

So I rushed to my PayPal account and cancelled the subscription, I had my "fun" :-)
