I’ve been working on a script that will search out good reciprocal link partners for a few weeks now and things are looking good. All the basic functionality is in place and the analysis capability is coming along well. I’ve run into a major problem though. I’ve just moved to a new city and sorting out all the paperwork I need has been a real headache. It has taken me a fortnight just to get a parking permit so I can park my car outside where I’m living. In those two weeks I’ve collected 11 parking tickets! I didn’t think it was a problem though, as I had been told I could cancel them all once I had the parking permit. In the end it turns out I can only cancel some of them. I still have three parking tickets that it looks like I’ll have to pay. That leaves me with a bill for £255 (about US$480) which as a student I just can’t afford. To try and pay for this expense I’ve decided to release my project early. The parking tickets need to be settled by the 8th November so there are two situations in which this offer will be stopped 25 scripts are sold ($500 total – enough to cover the cost of the tickets) The 8th November is reached After either condition is met one of two things will happen Sale is stopped entirely, only to be continued when all additional features have been added. Obviously the price will be raised. Sale is continued but the price is raised and/or some of the extras are removed. I really need to sell 25 copies so I want to make this as appealing as possible. I’m going to throw in some extras Work on the script is ongoing – free upgrade to the full featured script once work is complete (this is definitely going to be priced higher than $20) I have other projects in the pipeline and will give a 50% discount - ask me for details if you are interested A chance to shape the development of the final product – tailored to your needs. Free installation if it is needed The Tourist Guide With all that said here is a brief walk-through of what the script does. Fairly self-explanatory, just enter the keywords you want to target and press the submit button. I’m going to target the keywords ‘make money online’ in this example. Once the query is run the results are returned. There is a checkbox at the side of each site, just leave it checked if you want to send a link request to the site. In the centre there is a brief description and then on the right there are two urls. The top one just takes you to the url. The bottom one takes you to a new page which pools together a lot of useful info. Essentially you have all the various pieces of information used to generate the seomoz page strength value. The only query not run is the age of the domain at the Wayback Machine – it just takes too long to run. Here we are going back to the bottom of the results page. We have several options we can set, their email, your email, the subject and the message of the email to be sent. http://www.jmstreet.info/tools/backlink_builder_demo/screen4.PNG Finally we get the results. This is a screen dump from the demo so no actual emails are sent but we can see what would be sent in the full featured script. If you want to try it out for yourself the demo is available here. Purchase If you want to purchase the script please send me a PM. I'll be setting up an automated sales process once the complete product is available but as I'm only going to sell 25 at this stage I'll do things manually. Preferred payment method is paypal but if this is a problem let me know and maybe we can sort out an alternative arrangement.
Thanks, Adam Fletcher I've sent the script to your email address. If you have any problems or need any help please get back in touch.
Something I should have made clear in my first post is what you need to run the script. It is written in php so you will need a web server capable of handling php. You will also need a couple of API keys, these are freely available and just require you to quickly fill in a couple of forms.
I thought it would be useful to outline the direction I want to take this project in over the next couple of months (free upgrades). Get likely email contacts from whois server Record which sites have been contacted to prevent duplicating messages Search for sites based on keywords (already implemented) and on each of the page strength attributes Incoming links to the full url Incoming links to the domain Position in google for the first 4 words in title tag Links from .edu sites Links from .gov sites Alexa rank Domain name visibility Internal link percentage Number of links according to Technorati Number of search results for URL search at del.icio.us Listings in DMOZ Links found in Wikipedia Google pagerank Search for sites linking to competitors Ability to customize email for each individual site beyond inserting the url (which is already implemented) Other options which may be implemented in this project or forked into a seperate project (still a 50% discount) Automatically insert links into site content Remember sites contacted and send out reminders if no reply Automatically delete link from site content if link is not reciprocated Suggestions are also appreciated, I'm looking to make this as powerful a tool as possible.
I'm closing this offer down now. I'll likely post in the relevant section of the forum in the next couple of days seeking feedback on how this script can be made even better.
