Sorry I wasn't very clear I've not yet moved into contact form marketing -- so that's still a new area lol
When scraping sites, I am slowly building a list that filters out sites that are completely useless to me for blacklinking, etc. Sites like Amazon.com, Youtube.com, are obviously out. I also filter out urls containing a number of other words like
khanacademy
jstor.org
barnesandnoble
samsclub
my home city
former employers and business contacts
competitor names
my own name and business names
and a whole host of porn words.
While there may be times it would be useful to post to sites containing these words, I find it's pretty rare. Depending on where I'm scraping, I can get in quite a few junk urls.....so I've created several "remove" lists, depending on what I'm doing.
