Hi All,
Comment Sniper version 1.1 is now available with the new features mentioned a few days ago. An email has just been sent to all registered users containing information on updating so check your inbox. If it hasn’t arrived yet it should do within the next hour or so.
Hope you like the new features.

Hi All,
Just wanted to post a quick update to let you know where we’re with the next release of the software. You’ll notice the new site design has been implemented and personally I think it looks great. At the moment we are just updating the new logos etc into the software itself and testing the auto update feature. So hopefully the next version will be available in a day or so. I apologize I did not get it out last week as promised but it was my birthday on the Thursday so I took it easy for a couple of days.

Hi Guys,
As many of you already know, I’ve been running a contest to give the Comment Sniper website a new more professional appearance. The competition closes in a day, and I was already about to select a winner when a late entry came in the took my attention. So, I am leaving it in your hands and allowing all current users to vote. Please take a look at…
…and register or login to post a comment below and let me know which one you would like to see applied to the website. Obviously these both would need touching up, but you get the general idea. Thanks in advance for your input.

Hi All,
We have almost finished adding a few new features to Comment Sniper for you. These will be provided to you at no cost if you are a free registered user. Here’s what we have completed so far and what we are just cleaning up before I make it available…
Auto Update - we have added an auto updating feature to the application that will work in the background on your desktop to automatically update Comment Sniper when new features are added. This will eliminate the need to download and reinstall future versions of the application manually, making the update process much more user friendly and convenient. This has been completed although will only take effect after this update.
Loading On Startup - There was a small issue with Comment Sniper not loading (and monitoring) automatically upon computer start up even if this had been defined in the configuration section of the software. I apologize for this but somehow this functionality slipped out when we updated another aspect of the software before release and I simply didn’t notice it. This has already been patched.
Blog Searcher - This is probably the coolest feature that will improve Comment Sniper 10 fold. There will be a new tab that will enable you to search several of the biggest blog networks (and Google directly) for blogs related to keyword terms in your niche industry. It will then gather Link Popularity Data, Alexa Rankings, Page Rank Values, and check to see whether the blogs found are using the no-follow link attribute or not. You can then sort your results by all of these factors (depending on where you want to focus your attention i.e. blogs with a lot of traffic, blogs that do not use the no follow attribute for creating link popularity etc), select the blogs you wish to monitor and Comment Sniper will then attempt to automatically add all of the selected blogs to your Subscribed Blogs list. Very cool. We are just cleaning this up now.
Integrated Affiliate Program - We are giving anyone who wants too, the ability to customize the application with their own affiliate ID’s for our Better Than Backlinks partner program (and another really cool feature). So if anyone wishes to give the application away to their own visitors and newsletter readers as an appreciation gift, then you can also generate revenue by doing so (and encourage repeat visitors back to their own blog regularly). This has been completed and further details will be available shortly.
As always, you can leave your own suggestions for additional features in the user support forum and these will be taken into consideration for future updates. You’ll find the Comment Sniper forum located at the bottom of the various topic specific forums.
That’s all for now.
Keep your eye out for an email in a few days time, and if you haven’t already done so, please help spread the word and Digg Comment Sniper for us.
