Overview
Tube Automator is a
software that will increase traffic to your sites. The traffic
primarily comes via your video to your site. Once you post a video to
youtube, you will use tube automator to post comments and vote on this video with
hundreds of accounts.
Once you do this your video lands up on the popular sections of youtube and people who visit these pages see your video and land up on
your site via the link you add when you submit your video.
The second way you can
use Tube Automator is to post your advertisement to videos at youtube.
You do this by commenting on other peoples' videos.
The third way is to send
friend invites and by sending your advertisements as private messages.

your choice.

click the file>settings menu

Proxy Settings
If you intend to use
proxies then this is the place to set them up. You need to enter the
proxies one per line in the format IP:PORT
So each line would be
for example 64.56.123.78:8080
Make sure you don't
leave any blank space or blank lines after the last line.
Proxies can be obtained
from public proxy lists, but you need to validate them to see if they
are working.
If you are using TOR
then simply enter 127.0.0.1:8118 in the proxy box.
Tor is public anonymity
project where volunteers let you use their network of servers using
which communications are bounced around a distributed network of
servers called onion routers.
So in short if you use TOR your activity will remain anonymous First
visit
http://tor.eff.org/download.html.en
TOR is an open source software+network of TOR servers that act as
proxies.
Using this each time you can get a new anonymous IP
So once you have installed the software, you will see 2 icons in your
system tray.
One called "Vidalia" and another called "Privoxy"
Both need to be on. Enter 127.0.0.1:8118 in the proxy box and click
the save settings button
If you are using password protected proxies then the format
that the proxies need to be entered is IP:PORT:USERNAME:PASSWORD , one
per line

Checking Username
Availability
When you create an
account at youtube, you are asked to select a username.
Before these usernames
can be used to create accounts you need to check if the username has been already taken at youtube. To check this click the file>check user name availability
menu
If you want the software
to suggest usernames, in the window that appears, click the suggest
names button and the software will generate user names.
If you want to use your
own usernames, In the window that
appears, enter the user names one per line.
Once the usernames are
loaded in the box, click the start button
The usernames that are
available for creating accounts at youtube from the names you entered are displayed in the box below.
Save these username to a
file. If you are outsourcing account creation then you can give
this list of usernames to your provider to make accounts.

Creating The Usernames File
Obviously to perform
actions like voting, commenting etc, you will need a large
number youtube accounts. Now you can either create these by hand one
at a time, or if you want to save time then you can outsource this
task to other people. Most of our customers buy ready made youtube
accounts in bulk which are sold on various forum.
Once you have procured
or made these accounts, you will need to store your user accounts
information in a file which will then be used by the software to
perform the different actions like commenting etc.
To do this create a text
file using your favorite text editor like notepad. Then enter your
account information one per line in the format
username:password:email
each field is separated
by the ":" character and the next account information is on the next
line.
Here is a sample of how
the file should look
Once you have entered
all the data save the file.
This is the "accounts
file" that is referred to in the other forms in the software.
Top
Validate Accounts
Youtube often disables
accounts that it think are spamming their site. So you will get a few
accounts disabled depending on how intensely you are using the
software.
Before you use the
accounts to comment or vote its a good idea to run them through the
validator to check if they are still good.
To do so click the
"File>Validate Youtube Accounts" menu.
In the window that
appears, select your accounts file and then press ok. Your existing
accounts will get loaded in the box on the left.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure you use proxies and a lot if them, depending on the number
of accounts you are validating.
If you try validating
the accounts without proxies, you can be guaranteed that your accounts
will get banned within a few hours as all the accounts will be logging
in and logging out from the same IP address which raises a red flag at
youtube.
Click the check accounts
button and the software will add the valid accounts to the box on the
right.
Once this process is
done, click the save button and the original file will be overwritten
with only the valid accounts in it.
So basically this will
let you weed out banned accounts.

Scraping Comments
When you comment on your
own video as well as when you post comments to other peoples videos to

from each video will be added to the box below. Once thats done copy

Adding Friends
and Sending Private Messages
Another way to advertise
your affiliate/CPA offers is to send friend invites and private
messages.
If you plan to use
friend invites to send people to your affiliate offers then you need
to use this strategy to get the best conversion.
1. Make sure that all
the accounts that you are using have a nice template and a profile
picture of a nice looking young woman used in their channel page
Example
This person has used his
own picture, but note how he has listed his urls in the page as well
as has uploaded some videos related to his niche.
2. Make sure that you
have a short video with say a review of the product that you are
promoting as an affiliate is the video displayed as the main video on
the page.
Next go send friend
invites are described below. People will click the link in the invite
and browse to your channel page and then would mostly see your video
and make a purchase of the product you have reviewed.
The other method is to
send your advertisements as PM's ( private messages) to the users you
have harvested.
-
Click the browse button
marked 1 in the image above and navigate and select the accounts
file.
-
Enter the keyword describing the niche that you wish
to advertise for. So for example if you are looking to target golfing
enthusiasts then enter "golf" as the keyword.
-
Click the "Starts
search" button
marked 3 and the software will collect user names of people interested
in "golf" and save them in the box marked 4 in the image above.
-
Once you are done
harvesting user names, click the browse button
marked 5 in the image above and navigate and select the comments
file. These comments will be appended to the end of the comment if you
check the "append comments" check box.
-
Enter the subject of the PM that you want to send to
the user.
-
Enter the PM (which will be basically your
advertisement) into the box marked 7.
-
Check the box marked 8
if you'd like to have a random comment appended to your advertisement
comment. This helps get by the duplicate comment filters.
-
Check either the box marked 9 if you wish to send
friend invites, or the box marked 10 if you want to message the users.
Note: You cannot send friend invites and messages at the same
time.
-
Check the box marked 11, if you want to use proxies (
Highly recommended)
-
Select the time you want
the software to wait before retrying to comment, (marked 12 in image
above) once all the accounts
are captchad. Youtube retains this captcha block on account for about
15 minutes once you have exceeded the 4 comments limit.
-
Click the start button
and then minimize the software to the system tray and it'll continue
to keep working in the background.
