"Pete's Tripod Software"
 
I bought rights to Pete's Tripod software.

However, the license states that I can't distribute it until Feb. 22, so I'll make it available to all members then...

Right now, it's about $25 (the price keeps going up after each sale). But if you can wait for two weeks, you'll be able to get it with next month's membership.

   Hi Kurt;

Thank you for your very kind offer of this and Peter's other software items.

I note that Peter has updated most of his software recently including this one (apparently he left our a needed file or folder). It seems as though some of the downloads that you provide (in particular the Yahoo360 download) are not the latest releases (in this case the original needed .NET but the latest release does not).

Could you download and update your links for these new versions?

Thanks again
Phil G

Hi Phil,

I'll look into updating. He hasn't emailed me any update info, other than on the Tripod updte.

However, I don't think I'll release all programs at once...Too many people are getting the free trial and just downloading everything, then cancelling their membership.

I'll probably release the any programs over 2-3 months, which would be a couple a month.

My question to all of you is:

Considering the hassles of downloading and bugs with Pete's software, is it really easier to use the software or just go to each site and create each the "normal" way?

It isn't that hard to create a framed web page that links to each service...

   >>>Considering the hassles..... Good point!

Sad, that people think that they can join for two weeks, download a bunch of scripts and think they are set to go. I have been here since... well, seems like forever. I was part of the free group, the private group and now the paid group; and I still learn something new each and every time I visit.

To anyone considering doing what Kurt mentions, don't. You will be light years ahead by staying in!

Just my two cents.
Phil

But he had some problems...
"my servers were hacked big time by some pro hackers"
I know what he means, those damn hackers ;(

   I agree, Pete's scripts are a great idea but his programming skills leave a lot to be desired.

I did manage to get RSS Blogger and Mass Yahoo Blog 360 working and the blogs I made are still live.

Anybody manage to get the other scripts working?

Kurt - Did you ever consider creating bomber scripts to setup blogs? there is definitely a market!

Hey Noel,

I've thought about it, but they change so often it's a mess trying to maintain everything.

Hey Mitzie,

Thanks. I think I'll add all the Web 2.0 resources to a frames page and include Pete's resources.

To All,

I'll post Pete's Tripod software in a few days, but I think that will be the end of it.

I went through each program and don't see how they are that much easier than just going to the sites themselves and creating sites and blogs the "normal" way, and this is assuming the programs even work. In this case, it IS easier just to go to each site using a browser.

As Taz pointed out above, the programs are very buggy and any wasted time, or time used to download/install, is probably better spent just going to each site.

It's a good idea and one we should use to diversify our networks, but the application/method isn't quite right.

Stay tuned for my version using frames...I'll post it on the 20th for those who are hanging around for next month.


-Boom boom boom boom.

I'll post this somewhere else where it's easier to find, but here's a framed version of all the Web 2.0 resources:
www.dombom.com/web2/web2.html

Frames should really help making navigating from one site to the next much faster and easier.

For what it's worth, I would still be interested in picking up this script and any others that have been updated.

I note that Pete has a new one out for Squidoo. I am not so sure that I would buy that one (although it sounds like it might finally be the one that works properly right out of the box). As Kurt has mentioned, Squidoo should probably be saved for Silver sites rather than Tin sites.

Therefore hand building Squidoo and Hub pages still makes the most sense.

Anyway, just my thoughts on these scripts.

Thanks again
Phil

Hi Phil and Everyone...

Here's the Tripod software:
www.dombom.com/iframes/Tripod-Pete.zip

This will be it for Pete's stuff. I went through the programs and don't see where it's any easier to use the programs than to just go to the site.

As a matter of fact, I believe you still have to go to the site to register to use the Tripod program.

Since Pete's programs don't speed things up, all it does is add more support issues for me to handle, without any benefit to you guys and gals...

As far as the Squidoo WSO, I thought Pete was selling premade lenses and not software?

Hi Kurt;

I suspect that you are right on this. I didn't really pay much attention to his latest offer as I wasn't too interested software for Squidoo, for the reasons mentioned above.

Thanks
Phil

Hi Phil,

Can you post a quick review on the Tripod software...Does it work? Is it any easier that going to the site?

If you could answer those two questions, I'd really appreciate it.

Well, it would appear that the answer is yes and no ;-(

I was able to create a page rather quickly. FYI, you do not need to create the account first. It will be created with the keywords that you enter at the top. If the account name is not available it will add some characters to the end.

Html is acceptable but there did seem to be some errors. I am not 100% sure that the pages are created correctly, however I was able to log into my account a little later (there seems to be a delay for whatever reason) and edit the html.

Was it worth the effort? Well with a little getting used to the script, it may be a fast and easy way to create Tin pages for backlinks. I need to try to figure out why the pages were not created correctly the first go round. If it was something that I did, I should be able to eliminate the problems. If it is something that the script does, that may make it worthless.

It does seem that a lot of problems that people were having with Pete's scripts have been eliminated with the newer scripts dropping the need for .NET. Again, it may be worth downloading the latest versions and testing them.

By comparison, I did also set up an account directly at Tripod/Lycos. I found this to definitely be slower as a lot more information is required. I suspect that Pete's software is entering all the (false) personal information when creating the account. If one wants to have a lot of accounts, this is a good thing.

I also found that when signing up manually, there are a LOT of special offer pages that one has to go thru in order to get to the page creation. I gave up part way thru that effort when I seemed to get stuck on having to choose a paid account. There seemed to be no way out of that loop. I could have spent more time trying to figure it out as I am sure there was a way out of that, but since this was just a test, I didn't bother. It certainly is possible that once a person understands the ins and outs of Tripod, they may be able to skip all the special offer pages and go directly to the page creation, however, I have never used them before and so I found the process tedious.

So in the final analysis I was able to create a page with Pete's software but did not do so with the manual approach due to the cumbersome effort required to reach that point. So Pete's software was faster.

My overall review would be that Pete's software is worth testing a little more as it MAY be a solution worth working with. As always, however, there are bumps in that road.

I would give it a cautious grade of B. If the errors that I encountered were just first time problems that can be eliminated It would get an A.

I hope this helps
Phil G

   Update.

Ok, the html problems that I experienced seem to be just me screwing up the first time around. I was able to create the pages correctly with another go round.

One still needs to work on getting the pages just the way we want them, but this seems to be easy enough.

Others may find it easier to create the pages manually, but, since these are Tin pages, I don't see putting too much effort into them. Save the good stuff for Squidoo and Hubpages etc.

So my overall rating would be an A.

Thanks Phil... but this scares me...
Did you set-up 2 tripod accounts already ? If so, could you check both personal information. Just too see it is not the SAME or very similar...

   Well, as I mentioned, I really don't know my way around Tripod.

Oddly enough, I cannot find the page that lists this information. Even with the account that I created manually (and entered all of my personal info), I do not see where it can be edited or even viewed. I am not sure if this can be viewed anywhere. Perhaps someone who is more familiar with Tripod can check this out.

I suspect that the information is only used for their own demographics which in turn would be used to sell all the advertising on the site (and boy is there a TON of it on there).

Maybe I gave Pete's script a higher mark than it deserved. To be honest it was just nice to find one that actually worked!

Tripod seems to be trying hard to become a Web 2.0 site (probably in an effort to follow in the path of MySpace and Facebook). They are offering a variety of different style of pages such as a photo page and a blog etc. It is certainly possible that developing a full set of pages there would prove beneficial, but using Tripod manually does not seem quick and easy.

Just my 2cents
Phil G

   It could help if we find those programs for webhosts like geocities/yahoo/tripod/etc.

Those that really work and gives us easy way to create accounts so we just concentrate on making the sites on it, so not having to search for its member area or FTP information, etc..

You will say like Pete's programs. Sorry but I am not convinced because it seems buggy or does it FINALLY works like it should. What I don't understand is that people sell buggy programs and fix it LATER

Maybe he believes in the, I believe, John Reese theory:

1. Create and launch crap
2. Test that crap
3. Improve that crap
4. Make money with crap that eventually becomes non-crap.

I've had that on my wall for some time and don't have the citation for it.

Does seem a way to aggravate people so they eventually stop buying your stuff, though.

I think the Yahoo360 script might be worth a shot. I tend to think that Yahoo360 has not been exploited the way Blogger has been, and therefore may offer some opportunity to build good links.

Let me know your thoughts.

Hey Phil...

I PMed the download link for Yahoo 360 to you...

Please let me/us know if it works. You don't need to write a long review, just does it work without any hassles?

Thanks...

   Houston, we have ignition!

I had a little trouble getting this to work until I changed the first article's title to lower case (I recalled seeing this mentioned on his forum).

I agree with Tasari, it blows my mind that Pete keeps pumping out scripts and using his customers as beta testers. He has destroyed any credibility that he had online, but it does seem like he has worked most of the bugs out.

Don't get me wrong, these are definitely Tin sites and they couldn't hold a candle to a good Fatty or ZZtuel setup. But they have their place in our bag of tools.

I hope this helps
Phil

Actually these last three (plus RSSexplosion) are ones that I already had purchased on my own.

The GeoCities script works well and never really had any major difficulties.

The GoogleBomber and MSNblog scripts are another story. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. They can be very frustrating.

Honestly, I am not sure if it is Pete's scripts or just the fact that Google and MSN are sometimes difficult to work with. There have certainly been many times that Blogger is down and one cannot create blogs so that may be the same sort of issue with these.

So all in all, Pete's scripts do still get a B- from me. It is sad that he uses his customers as beta testers. There are virtually no error messages ever given so when the scripts hang up you are left to stare at the screen hopelessly. But for the most part the scripts do work with the latest updates. I did not have the Yahoo360 script nor the Tripod script and was pleasantly surprised to find that they seemed to work well on my computer.

As for the ones that I am having problems with, I will continue to follow Pete's forum to see if there are any improvements in the reliability of the scripts. Having said that, I suspect that if we concentrated our efforts on Blogger, GeoCities, Tripod and Yahoo360 we would have plenty of links to work with.

Again, I feel that it is important to remember that these are Tin sites. I don't spend too much time on them. I pick a script and put some words on some pages. If it works, I rinse and repeat. If it doesn't, I don't obsess over it, just move on.

I hope this helps.

Phil, just because of that, if those scripts work you will gain a lot of time, not wasting on doing manually

Thanks Phil...

To sum it up:

These work pretty well:
Tripod
Yahoo360
GeoCities
RSSexplosion (Blogger)

These work sometimes and can be frustrating:
GoogleBomber
MSNblog

(These can still be used "by hand", and probably should be used a litle.)

No just find them Tripod is in this topic !
I re-downloaded them http://www.dombom.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=77&forum=DCForumID42 ( I hope the urls stays the same to get updates lool )

>These work pretty well:

This is already great !! Only 2 to go and we could made A LOT of different type of sites with different IPs

So combine it with this list http://www.dombom.com/web2/web2.html , then we got a lot of variety.
But I suppose we spend 5 more time on above (working) ones !

Hi Taz...

You need to remove the comma after the URL in your post:
http://www.dombom.com/web2/web2.html

As it causes an error.

And your point is correct...Create resources using Pete's working stuff, mix in a few more resources from the web 2.0 page, add a few free hosting services, plus Squidoo, Zimbio, Hubs and you should have a good network to work with.

You submit each to the bookmarking services, using your network to camouflage your gold site.

For example, submit using the following strategy:

Bookmarking Account #1
Tin (free resource) #1
Squidoo
Various Gold URL

Bookmarking Account #2
Tin (free resource) #2
Hub
Various Gold URL

Bookmarking Account #3
Tin (free resource) #3
Zimbio
Various Gold URL

This accomplishes a few things:
1. Gives links to tin sites that pass the link juice on to silver/gold sites.

2. Camouflages your gold sites by using different IPs and URLs when submitting your gold URLs. Instead of having each account submitting just gold URLs, you're mixing and matching other resources to help erase fingerprints.

It also gives more value to software purchases such as Bookmarking Demon. Why buy it and just use it on one domain? May as well bookmark as many resources as possible to get maximum value.

And don't forget: As you add resources to your network, add them to your Blackhole RSS pheed(s) to help cross-link even more.



-Boom boom boom boom.

Hey Taz...

Those are the OLD download links and not the updated versions.

I'll probably give the updated download links to folks that participate in the forum, in exchange for helpful posts.

Actually, the Tripod link listed on this thread is the newest, updated version. All the other links to other Pete's programs are to old versions.

   About "RSS SEO Explosion" of Pete...

What do you enter as "RSS Feed" ?
It seems a logical answer but it isn't with the strategy of Kurt...

You could say the Rss feed for the site you are promoting => good point, but what do you enter if you use "black hole pheed"

This puzzles me...
Why ? Because if I am correct, the rss feed will be added to the blogger page under "My feeds", right ?

Hi Taz...

It's been a while, not sure what it does with RSS pheeds. But I think you are correct, that it does add them to "my pheeds.

However, I'm not sure why this doesn't go with my strategy. You do what you can do...Use the blackhole to help auto-link.

Because you then "expose" your blackhole pheed being found. Isn't that a problem ? Ok we get even more links/clicks if people use it, but it will be found on each blogger site.

If I know the solution then I can spam blogger loooooooooooool

   I wouldn't be too worried about the blackhole pheeds being exposed. These slammed together bloggers are most likely just spider bait. I doubt that many real visitors would ever see them.

If you want to create a blogger blog that will attract visitors you will want to go all out with a custom design, lots of content being updated regularly and probably even hosted on your own server.

Just my 2 cents.

   Another question about using these programs...

How are you able to change your IP address when using this software ? Because they could easily search via IP address to find our RSS bloggers / tripod / etc.

Anyone ?
