vBCloaker 0.1

This hack is a search engine cloaker, it will help you get ranked on search engines.



However, certain search engines have nice protection against cloakers and don't like em, like AlexanderT mentioned so well, so use this hack at your own risk.




I really hope you will appreciate it, this is my first real vBulletin hack ever. Also, I have a friend that won a VIP pass to E3, but he needs to buy a plane ticket which costs $600 and he doesn't have the money, so if you feel generous, a donation would be very nice.

Encouraging him is encouraging me.

Also, there is one thing that is VERY important. When you add words

(fillers,targets,links,titles), use enter to seperate each entry. If you want a bunch of words altogether, seperate the words you want grouped together with spaces.




Features you can expect to see in next release (if this project is appreciated):

- User settable "max words" from admin panel
- Random font color
- Spiderbot logs
- Add random HTML tags



Click install if you install please


UPDATE

There seems to be a bug with editing spider strings from the user CP (vbulletin bug), you will have to edit the database manually

I did... Here are a few screen shots so you can see...

By the way, since I've added the metatag, whenever I click on 'test vbcloaker', it goes directly to my archive page.

It should work, works *perfectly* for me and for everyone else, try reading post #30

[morrow]

This is my 'functions.php':

function vBCloaker_CheckUserAgent($testing=false)
{
if ($testing)
{ return true; }

global $DB_site;
$cloakPage = false;
$spideragents = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT value FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."setting WHERE varname='spiderstrings'");
$spideragents = explode("\n",$spideragents['value']);
for ($i=0;$i<sizeof($spideragents);$i++)
{
if (substr_count(trim($spideragents[$i]),$_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]) > 0) // Spiderbot
{
$cloakPage = true;
break;
}
}

return $cloakPage;
}

looks to match everything in post 30.

Is anyone else having the same problem still?

*If I can get this working, I'll definetely donate at least a few bux.

Here's a pic of a generated page (Very nice)... I put a 30second delay in the meta tag to eliminate the test from jumping directly to the 'archive' page. Now if I could just get the search engine to notice the generated text and spider it!

[Cerb]

does that mean it works? FISH FOR TROUT!!!!

edit: if not, just give me the link to a cloaked page on your website

[morrow]

It appears to work from my end, but when I run it through Summit, it doesn't return anything that looks like that photo... Not even the keywords. The only keywords that are returned are the ones from my forums.

But now you mention to give you a link to a cloaked page on my website. Do you mean to one of the links I have in the links section of the vbcloaker settings?

If so, here are a few:

Same problem here.

[GamerzWorld]

Do the search engines use automated tools to catch cloakers? I run a site/forum on an online game in which not many play. Wouldnt be noticed by anyone offical /reported. However if its automated then id ont want to really ge ttaken oiff the search engines

[Cerb]

T_T maybe they got different user agent, because it cloaks the page when I use Firefox User Agent switcher.

Try adding 'spider' and 'media' to your user agent values

if it doesnt work, we'll try something else.


@GamerzWorld : no they don't, they have to be reported..
