Backlink Verifier - Here's a program that checks to see if your links are listed on sites and blogs. It's from the guy that does Scrapebox, and is included in Scrapebox...But if you don't have Scrapebox, this is free.

"Backlink Verifier will parse a list of URL's and tell you if your link is on the page.

To Use:

Click “Load Websites” and select a .txt file with your Domain or Domains listed in it one per line.

Click “Load Blogs” and select a .txt file with a list of URL’s you want to check to see if they link to your domain or domains using the same format above, one URL per line.

Click “Start” and that’s it"

Market Samurai

- They offer a free 30 day trial that gives use of all the features. They also offer a discount if you buy right away through a link in the software.

However, the keyword module will continue to work after the trial period expires...And their keyword module is probably the best keyword research tool on the market today.

If you want a blog on your site and do not know how to install wordpress etc this is a great programme.

Works great and is easy to set up.

Thingamablog is a cross-platform, standalone blogging application that makes authoring and publishing your weblogs almost effortless. Unlike most blogging solutions, Thingamablog does NOT require a third-party blogging host, a cgi/php enabled web host, or a MySQL database. In fact, all you need to setup, and manage, a blog with Thingamablog is FTP, SFTP, or network access to a web server.

Create your own proxy:

http://www.jmarshall.com/tools/cgiproxy/


This is a free CGI script that you upload to your web site. You then access it in your web broswer and enter a URL. You then can surf the web using your web host as your IP, and the location of your server as your location.

This will give you another online "ID"...But remember, since it uses your IP it's pretty easy to trace it back to you.

Still, this should be of use to many. If you live over-seas but have a host in the US, you can surf the web as if you were in the US.

And do note that uploading and installing a proxy script like this one is against the TOS of your host, be sure to check before using.

Kurt,

I have some software, that is no longer support or sold.

I can easily spider dmoz cats, and spidering on other engines similar to spiderbomb.


If you could use a category from dmoz, let me know.

Thanks Kelvin...I wonder if the old ODPBomb still works?!?

Not sure if ODP works, but if i remember correctly, it let you display, the data. But you could not actually make your own database from it.

The software I use allows me to download up to 5,000 listings from a category or cat tree.

For example, Golf is a good keyword paying cat, I just downloaded 2,000 golf course links.

So, at a minimum, I will load that into my directory software powered by wordpress.

And some money making links in, etc, and work on following the formula you have been sketching for us.

Here's a couple things.

One is a social bookmarking service that has a free membership at SocialAdr.com. My affiliate link (just in case anyone wants to sign up for the paid membership) is http://socialadr.com/join/?a=118241 For most here who have bookmarking software and use it, this really isn't necessary but I'm lazy and am giving it a try.

The other is ezarticlelink.com which is a system for article marketing sort of like UAW. You put in a site and an article directory is built in a folder. Under the gold program, if you have 20 sites used as article directories in the system, you can have unlimited "post only" domains. That allows you to have links to places like squidoo, hubpages, and blogger.

What I like is that they are also building backlinks to the directories and articles in the directories through a couple link rolls that are added to each directory. My affiliate link for that is http://www.ezarticlelink.com?r=aspen The silver membership is free.

They also have in-house people who spin your articles for the system for $3 each if you are a gold member. I think it's $5 if you aren't.

This may be a very powerful source of free content:
http://www.data.gov/

It's the XML feeds from the US gov. When I first posted this link, the service was brand new. It looks like they've added tons more stuff.

Just a very quick check showed:
-U.S. Overseas Loans and Grants

-Myfoodapedia provides information on the total calories; calories from solid fats, added sugars, and alcohol (extras);

-ENERGY STAR Find A Product
Tool to search for ENERGY STAR qualified products based on specific attributes. Currently there is a Find A Product query for Computers, Imaging Equipment, Monitors, Televisions ...

These are 3 very profitable niches...This is after just 30 seconds of "research".

Again, these are US gov data bases, so they are in the public domain.

Here is another free photo site. License looks pretty good, allows for quite a bit of commercial use. No model releases, so be careful with photos containing identifiable people. Same with any copyrighted art, etc.

Hey guys, not sure if you've heard about me but I'm the guy who created the most powerful Auto Blogging Software which even had some rants going on here sometime back.

I sold over a 1000 copies at $67 price tag and many even paid me $99 for it. But today, I'm giving it away for FREE to all Black Hat World Members. http://hiderefer.org/?http://www.webmagnates.org/abs-promo/bhw.html

Here's something similar:

Freebase.com

This is a site with a bunch of GPL databases. The data is someone limited, but they have pages set up that has scraped content from Wikipedia.

If any one is interested, I may be able to create a bot that will scrape this site for the date and info and load it into FatBomb format, to create movie sites, etc.

Hi Kurt,

That IM automator is a great little tool - really quick. I read this post five minutes ago, and added 6 pages of a client's site - and it's the type of site where I was able to legitimately use a different category for each submission/page - now I'm back here to mention that this little tip kind of sums up what your membership here is all about.

The IM automator site is a tempter to get people to sign up for the RSS submissions, increased bookmarking and they'll probably hammer the list at some point. Smart bombers take advantage of these 'tempters' all over the place, using free emails of course

We could all spend our time scouring forums and being on lists to find out these things individually, but personally I'm done with that. It's much nicer to be able to avoid all of that BS and pop in here and find this stuff aggregated into one place. Taking advantage of lots of little pieces of automation adds up to a lot of automation in the big picture. It actually took me longer to say thanks here than to bookmark those pages.

Thanks!

Hey Fredola,

I appreciate the post.

I know this forum isn't as busy as it should be and I'm working on that. On the other hand, I'm not looking to have tons of stuff. I only want the best.

I used to be a cab driver. I never had people ask me for a list of steak houses. They always asked "What's the BEST place in town for a steak". And this is my philosophy for this forum.

Wylio offers an easy way to embed Creative Commons photos from Flickr onto your pages / blog. Search, select the image, resize it if needed, and copy & paste the code.

Of course, if Wylio servers are down, or they go out of business, you'll have to replace the photos you've used.

Hi Kurt,

Namechk is a free resource I use very often to check availability and use of a particular name/keyword in social network before buying a corresponding .com domain.

I have joined your great forum yesterday after buying Think Links 2012 on the Warrior Forum.

Thank you so much for all the awesome knowledge and resources that you share here!

With my best regards to you and all Forum members,
