Updates
Aug 8, 2012:
- Wrote a new bot to seek out blogs based on comments from existing blogs
- Had to modify/fix the code that checks indexed links of known aa sites as "google did it to me again". The # of urls should increase dramatically
- You can now query and download edu links only
- Live database query UI now active. you can now select what you want from the database in your comment and trackback lists including date first found, date last checked, min host pr, min url pr, do follow and max outbound links.
- Client (this site) and database servers are now on the same server, this opens the database to real time queries, rather than 30 minute updates
- Client GUI now under development, allowing you to extract info on the fly with live data!
- Bots continue to run on a dedicated server by themselves
- Database server crashed on the 16th, support ticket came in alerting me of the problem. Sorry!
- Messed up the download lists totally, hopefully the download links point to the right file now. Please test. Thanx!
- Do Follow links now tracked.
- Google PR problem resolved with my proxy finder bot I wrote a year ago.
- Google PR is giving TOS error way to much, about to give up on it all
- Yahoo site explorer is no longer supported by yahoo. This is really impacting the bots. A new backlink service has been found and is now coded.
- Database server crashed, no updates for over 12 hours
- Seems that the trackback lists were not updating properly. Should be fixed now.
- Google PR is messing up once again, google must have changed something.
- Removed logging of postable links, causing to much overhead and PR problems. This was a tough decision.
- Auto approve urls seems to be becoming rare, the number of new auto approve blogs is dropping daily.
- Free samples put back online with captcha this time.
- Auto approve trackback links added.
- SQL database moved to faster server
- Several internal changes/optimization
- Preparations to move this site (not the bots) to same server as SQL database for future UI
- Bots are up and down and random times for coding, link counts will vary for past few days
- Get pank rank code fixed again
- Removed the free samples as it's been scraped way to much :)
- Reset the index so the page rank info can get updated faster
- Mysql crapped out, will take a couple of days to update and refresh PR info
- Page Rank code stopped working due to google change. Fixed
- Optimized some code. Much quicker discovery of new links now.
- Work started on new members backend to query database in real time for lists.
- Rewrite of sections that relied on the Yahoo site explorer V1 api which is no longer active.
