Faster MCDar than MCDar

This new tool < http://www.tippy.co.uk/google-datacenter-check/ > is faster
and lighter than MCDar. It achieves the same thing without that cluttered
user interface. Worth taking for a spin if you want to check your positions
across datacentres. It seems as though more search engines might be added
soon...

Does not work, returns PHP error. Would be nice if it did though because I
cannot recall when was the last time MCDat tool did not time out on me.

It seems to work all right at my end. I am ware that the Webmaster is
currently working on the script in order to include Yahoo among the
columns. It will be very intersting to see the final outcome of this.
Borek offered help with the extensive list of datacentres, whereas John
takes care of the Perl which handles regular expressions for Yahoo SERP's.
From there onwards, I guess it can only be extended further, in line with
suggestions.

Are you guys collectively building something and I'm missing out on the
action?

OK, not sure what to do here. If I run the scripts locally under
Apache,
they all work fine. All the backlinks check work ok and get good
results.

If I run the scripts from the web server, Google gives me a 302
response to
the request which works fine locally.

Another strange thing, other requests into google, using the same
method are
not returning the 302. Just the "link:" command.

The same server is quite happy to take a request from the browser for
this
request.

Do you guys see this or is all ok from your end?

It seems to be working fine here. Just did one of my sites, results seem
consistent with what I saw manually and with McDar tool.

You must have tripped some sort of alarm with Google looking for those
Wombats thousand times during the debug. So, they politely wanted to send
you some place else ;-) Where was the 302 pointing to?

I used to be redirected to some pages when I requested 'too many' (50)
results per page. This was going on for a while and reached an end without
need for intervention at my end. If I recall correctly, it gave some sort
of a "forbidden page" (not sure about error code), saying that I
overloaded the server... or something to that effect.

For that reason, I no longer run scripts that probe SERP's. If GoogleBar
can annoy them, I'm sure that the effect of scripts (Perl) will can lead
to a potentially irreversible penalty. How long before we get the option
to go to the post office and pay a GFine and redeem some traffic...?

Best wishes,

Roy
