I have seen some 6-month old sites. They have more than 8000 links shown in backlink tool. I suspect they used Xrumer. Can someone show me how I can verify this?
XRumer is a software application that automatically posts your messages to forums, guestbooks, bulletin boards and catalogs of the links To OP - I think if most of those links are coming from forums profiles and Guestbooks, then surely they are created with Xrumer blast.
Well, if you've checked your backlinks and you've found out that almost all the posts on blogs are generic, that could be a suggestion that your backlinks came from XRumer. Yugo,
I get many XRumer registrations and fluff posts on my forums all the time. They all get banned and deleted. I, like a lot of other forum owners have started reporting the sites that do this to Google via their spam report tool. We simply reporting that they using XRumer to build back links, so assume that Google will (or already has) found a scalable way to detect and discount links generated this way.
Xrumer is very poverful tool but have some requirenments 1. very fast dedicated server 2. 100 MBit connection to the Internet - i know what I talking about cos have one and it isn`t enough 3. long time to configure and testing I think you all should try purchase some Xrumer services at the beginning and see it is worth of it or not then decide if you want purchase Xrumer or not. I have long expirience with tis tool and can say it isn`t so easy like fire START button and forget, it has many option and used in wrong way can hurt the domain only.
Xrumer is awesome if used correctly although it will make forum owners very mad so I recommend using it on third party websites only (free hosted blogs; like wordpress.com & blogger.com)...
Right, so if you as a person could detect whether a site was using xrumer or not how long do you think before Google finds that out and start penalising sites if not already? (not really directed to you just to show how dangerous xrumer can be)
