Hey guys I cant get Feedforall to install on Win 7 x64 as it doesnt seem to be compatible so I guess I'm looking for an alternative. I know I can create feeds in Scrapebox but will need to do a mass replace in the text files as it adds in Scrapebox footprint in the title etc. Is there any other tool I can use to make rss feeds from mass links lists? I have @ 3,000 backlinks I'd like to up using RSS submit.

Hmnn never tried to install Feedforall on any of our Windows 7 Boxes. Will take a look into that. It's unsusual that any of the Dummy Software  /KSoft stuff is not Windows 7 compatible so will investigate.

I think it may be an x64 issue. Seems to bomb out on the installer on several different machines both win 7 and Vista x64 unfortunately I don't have any machines with a 32bit os installed.

I just used scrapebox to create the feeds, unfortunately they all have the same title and description for each one (248 files) so that is a drawback but you would know better if it will cause an issue. I don't know if feedforall has the capability to sequentially change the title and description for each feed, which would be nice but maybe that doesn't really matter.

I'm submitting them now via RSS Submit SEO version. I used the same spreadsheet system/video you laid out to autopopulate rss submit for sls when i uploaded my backlinks from another bookmarking effort of @ 3k+ bookmarks via scuttle/pligg/phpdugg. Good stuff and huge timesaver! 3,000 links x 248 feeds is only 744k backlinks... ;p

Hi guys,

Worst comes to worst you could install XP mode for Windows 7 or any other virtual machine and run feedforall from that...

Anton

Good suggestion. Thanks. Will keep that in mind for the next set of queries. I must re install Feed For All and see if they have rolled out any updates etc.
