Gotta Love Free Software!
Are you looking for an easy way to scrape thousands of relevant comments directly related to your niche? Well, today is your lucky day! As a celebration for my new blog I”ve decided to make one of my most popular tools a freebie for all my blog readers.
There is no catch, no opt-in, nothing to sign up for – the tool is 100% free. Not only that, but you”re welcome to give it away to your own blog readers, share it on forums or give it away as a freebie for your own products.
What is Ultimate Comment Scraper?
Ultimate Comment Scraper is a tool designed to make creating niche related comments a lot less time consuming. It does this by using Yahoo Answers, Twitter and Youtube API”s to scrape questions, comments and tweets related to your keywords.
Anyone who does blog commenting knows how tedious and time consuming it can be to write out blog comments for each of your niches. This is the reason why Ultimate Comment Scraper was created.
Here”s a quick breakdown:
If my blog was about weight loss, I would try to leave comments on other blogs related to my niche. (weight loss, fitness, nutrition, diet, etc.) The best way to leave a comment that will actually stick is to leave one relatedΒ to the blog you”re commenting on, and in the form of a question. By leaving a comment in the form of a question, you”re asking the admin and other blog readers to engage in conversation. A good blog owner doesn”t like to leave unanswered questions hanging around the blog for too long.
Scraping Niche Related Comments
For this example we”re going to go with the “weight loss/fitness” niche. I”m going to scrape questions from Yahoo Questions based on these niche related keywords “lose weight” and “gain muscle”.
Time to start scraping …
We ended up with 144 niche related questions that can now be used for blog commenting.
Here are some example comments:
- What”s a quick and easy way to lose weight for a nursing mom?
- How can I lose weight in my thighs and legs?
- What should I eat to lose weight or to stay slim? Other than slimming products,is there anything else to help you lose weight? Like what type of vegetables,fruits,or meat that decreases our body fat percentage?
Each comment above is asking the blog owner a question related to the niche. Even if the question isn”t 100% related to their particular blog post, there is still a better chance of it appearing more natural then if you were to just write a generic comment like, “Hey! Great blog post!”. As long as the comment is related to the overall theme of the blog, you have a great chance of passing moderation.
What else can Ultimate Comment Scraper be used for?
The cool thing is these questions are being scraped directly from Yahoo Answers which means every one of these questions has been asked by a real person. This can help you gain insight into your niche by knowing what people are asking and needing help with within your niche. Need to write an ebook for your blog readers? Take some of the best questions you get from the software, do a little research and find the answers to the questions. Throw this in an ebook and now you have a simple ebook based around your niche you can give away for free in exchange for an opt-in, as a product bonus, etc.
Ultimate Comment Scraper can be used for:
- Creating social bookmark titles/descriptions
- Creating niche related comments
- Doing niche research
- Compiling information for ebooks
- Discovering more niche related keywords
The sky”s the limit!
It wasn”t long ago I was selling this software for $27. Now you can have it 100% free with give-away rights simply by sharing this post.

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for being the first person to like the Facebook page! Very much appreciated.
“Like”ing this did not reveal the download. Fail.
Hmm .. sorry about that. I’m going to look for a new plugin. Thanks for letting me know.
It was an error with the plugin. I replaced it with a new one so it should work now. Win.
I re tweeted it and shared it but now I can’t see the download link?
me too… i tweeted it, +1 it, but still can’t see any links.
Everything should be fixed and working now
I am still waiting for the download.
Sorry everyone who didn’t have the download link work. I guess the plugin doesn’t work for some folks. I changed it for now. Everyone should be able to grab it.
my download for comment scraper does not work looking for new link.
Hi Devin.
Iv been using the tool for a while, but today, its refusing to scrape anything. No errors or anything, it just doesn’t give any results. Perhaps yahoo closed the gap?
Sorry. I didn’t see a comment here. Would you happen to be using proxies? If so, disable them. I would uncheck the blacklist and proxies if you have those options checked. I just tested the software and its scraping fine from Yahoo on my end.
Thanks Devin.
We’re not using any proxies. I also tested on another PC and its doing the same. Twitter is the only platform we can scrape. No Yahoo (answers or questions) or YouTube. It just hangs on scraping and doesn’t return any results.
That’s odd. Do you have .net framework installed? I’ve just tested from my home PC (windows 7) and my VPS (windows 2008) and Yahoo & Youtube are working great. It seems to be working fine for other users as well. I’m not sure if something like antivirus or firewall might be blocking the Youtube and Yahoo API’s? Very strange.
I just installed it and it works like a charm! Thank you very much for this.
Glad its working good for you. π
Hello:
Seems that I can’t update the software?
Error message: “Error while looking for the newest version”.
I’ve been struggling to find YouTube API, can you point me where to get it?
Thank you.
Hey – Yes that error will come up but there is no update available so just click it off for now until I get a new version out. The software should function as normal. An API isn’t required, the software has them built in.
Never mind, I found it. Firstly I had error 500…that’s why the confusion. Now it’s working perfectly.
Thank you.
Just so you know. You don’t actually have to enter your own API. The software has built in API’s that it rotates through. If for some reason it isn’t pulling results, you might need to enter your own API, but usually that doesn’t happen.
Hi, software don’t working – error: “One or more affected files have operations pending. You should restart your application..” Can u help me pls?
Is that happening right when you start the software or when you click a button? I have notified my developer and I’ll try to see what’s going on.
imdevin.com any chance of reupping the download link? Thanks
Great little proggy, but how to launch it? “One or more affected files have operations pending. You should restart your application..” – did I miss smth?
What operating system are you using? Do you have .net framework installed?
plugin still not work π this is the error http://prntscr.com/tqndz.
plugin still not work.The error is this : one or more affected files have operations pending.You must restart your application to complete this process.Tried to restart , nothing changes.. the same problem ;(.Runned as administrator , the problem still persist π This error come when I launch the application after the program is performing life check or smth like this π
Do you have .net framework installed on your machine? You need that. I just tested on Windows 7 and Server 2008 and its working.
Net framework is installed for sure ,because i’m running another software which need net framework and it’s work fine .. π
software still not work π
I’m really not sure why some people are getting this error and others aren’t. I’m talking to one of my developers about creating Ultimate Comment Scraper v2. Stay tuned we might have a new one coming out soon and it will also be a freebie. Sorry this one isn’t working well for you.
Hey we just found out the godaddy server was down and causing errors. Can you try it now and see if its fixed?
Will try asap and will post here the results π Hope it works π
Ok.Sounds good.
As promised just tested and the software is working :)))).
Its power is fucking nice π
Thanks imdevin.
Gabriel – Thanks for letting me know
Not on Mac? π
Sorry. Not on Mac. π
This is good!
Hi, great looking tool, but it also wont start for me. Getting a warning, “One or more affected files have operations pending. You should restart your application..”
It did open and run before after this warning but now it wont start.
Works now. Seems it wont run when using a shortcut.
Hmm that is strange. Thanks for letting me know.
No problem. You’re welcome.
Thanks Devin. It works on Win 7. One of the best SEO freebies this year π
You’re welcome! More freebies on the way. π
Great for software for yahoo question and answer….but am not able to scrap twitter function..so please fix it..its urgent.
Sir nothing happen after generation customer key or secret code, again not scraping any tweet..
Dainell Wood – Twitter doesn’t work on this free version anymore since its API has changed and I decided against updating this version since I have a new one being created that should be much better. π
Really nice software, but one suggestion! ,after extracting all,when saving in txt ,can some space to be added between them? in between the lines ,so it easy to know this is one paragraph,and the next and next ,now are all next to each other and is hard to figure out witch is witch. Thanks.
very good
How can i download it

Thanks Devin.
Super software
Hello. thank you devin for programs. but i ask you if you have the program “Ultimate Comment Scraper” or this “http://www.scrapeboxtutorials.com/”because I am in dire need of these programs.
thank you very much
beto
Hi,
Yes that was the same comment scraper from the old website. Unfortunately, the old version is no longer working. We have been in development for a few months on the new version which will be much better so when that is released I will be announcing it here on my blog.
Hi,
How do I know the new version released? can you PM me sir?
Thanks
Sure, if you’re on my mailing list, I’ll be shooting out an email when it is time for beta. π
Do you have any idea when this software will be ready again? I kind of can’t live without it! π
The last version no longer works 1.9.0.9. It freezes on the “checking internet connection” dialog box.
Sorry, hopefully within the next few months. I didn’t realize how many people still used the old version, but the new version will be much much better. π
Hello,
Where I can download it? I never used it but i want to use it for my scrapebox. Help me please.
thanks
It’s currently not working because we have started development on version 2 and this version is outdated and not worth it to put money in to fix it.
When will the new version of Comment Scraper be done? Ballpark?
Honestly, I’m not sure when it will be ready. We’ve been juggling different projects so we haven’t been coding 100% on that lately. π
Woa.. where the link download go? i need this π
It was removed because my previous developer who worked on this no longer works for me and we’re working on a new version.
I was searching long time, thanks for nice sharing.
Devin, I have not found any download link can you send me direct link on my e-mail?
Sorry, hopefully within the next few months. I didnβt realize how many people still used the old version, but the new version will be much much better. π
How can i get this free software? i saw no links for download. thanks
Sorry, download link was removed while new software is being developed.
This software looks really really cool, really hopes that version will come really soon. I hope that whatever project you currently working on are getting done quickly so you can focus more for this software again…
I want this software so bad…. π
We’re working on it and trying to get it done as fast as we can. Thanks for leaving a comment. π
ERm…i was actually one of those who paid for the scraper when it was being sold and then it went free and now its in development. So roughly how long before we can see a beta? Will this be free?
Yes, this was sold a few years ago for $17 and a few years later decided to just release it for free. I had a lot of new ideas and putting them in the tool that was a one time $17 wasn’t worth it worth it a few years down the line so I decided to work on a new one. It won’t be free, it will be a completely different tool with more features.
Wow, could you please let me know what price you suggested?
What price I suggested? I’m sorry, not sure what you’re asking?
What will be price of your software?
I still haven’t decided that yet.
is it possible for you to let your software run and make the users use it while you take your time to finish your new program?
Hi Amber, the problem is that tool was made by one of my old developers years ago and he no longer works for me. My newer developers aren’t using the same framework as the old tool, but I’ll see if we can do something about it.
I really wish you can..cause alot of my other tools worked with higher success rate worked best with ur scraper. Is there any timeline on your new tool being releaseD?
How Can I get this software. I need it.
Well, its currently not working at the moment. π
good post,thanks for share
Welcome
I purchased this software and am hoping you have a fix, any update?
Sorry, this software hasn’t been for sale for years now and is no longer updated. Hopefully we can work on a new version after the keyword tool is finished.
This was an awesome software and i\’m bummed it no longer works. I strayed away from a lot of backlinking for the last couple of months and I was setting up a new VPS when I realized the software no longer worked…that\’s a real bummer.
Ya, sorry about that. I’m planning to remake it, but we’re working on a keyword research tool at the moment. That’s going to come first, then we’ll move on to the comment scraper.
i have tweeted and waiting for link to download that software
Sorry, but that tweet was for a competition a long time ago. This software is unfortunately no longer available.
great job devin, i have tried to download your software but i got aswered, thank for your educated article to improve my weblog. !!
No problem π
when we gonna get a fix for this I really miss this software.
Won’t be a fix for this software, but possibly a new version in the future. π
I really will love to have the software. \\help me
I think the footprints is about customization and the google query added command to the tools gave more benefits
Thanks. I’m not sure what you mean though?
