Suggestions for
Keyword Search Tool v2:
1. Remove input.txt completely.
2. Remove output.txt completely.
3. Remove the references.txt file completely.
4. Rename the exe file to KeywordSearchTool_v2.exe
5. Rename the zip file to KeywordSearchTool_v2.zip
6. Cancel the auto created input.txt file.
If you delete the input.txt file the program creates one automatically even though you are using another file for input. This is the same problem as in the other tool.
7. When you click
select output file a window opens that says
open. Change this window to the one that says
save as.
8. Inside the program can you change
input (domain lists) to
select input files.
9. Just to use the same wording in both programs can you change
output to
select input files inside the program.
10. Inside the program can you change
reference file to
select keyword file.
11. When you select the output destination the windows window that opens is the
open window. Again we need the
save as window here.
12. Progres bar will be great help.
13. I have tested
exclude digits and
exclude dashes. There is a problem here with the order of actions. A typical snapnames list has 350.000 domains. During the test to make things simple I have used a
keyword text file with 5 keywords. I run the test that
ends with test normally. The program goes all through the 350.000 domains and selects the domains that ends with the 5 keywords and exports results. This is done in 23 seconds. I'm happy with the proccessing time.
Now I run the same test again after selecting
exclude digits and
exclude dashed. Everything else is the same. After 8 minutes I shut down the program because it is not working. I think the problem is order of actions. The program should:
> run the filter normally without thinking about dashes and digits.
> Create the results file in 23 seconds.
> Go to the results file that you have just created and take the results file as a new input file.
> Delete all domains that contain digits or dashes from the
results file.
> Update results file.
I think instead deleting digits and dashes from results file your program checks all input list = 350.000 domains.
If this feature is going to be a problem I suggest you add it to cleaner and remove it from this program. If the cleaner can create a 320.000 list without digits and dashes it will be better because the will have one input file already cleared from digits and dashes and you don't worry about them every time.
14. Instead selecting a
keyword file it would be better to have the keywords inside the program saved.
Example:
I want all domains that start with 'find' or 'easy'.
I want all domains that contain 'English', 'French' or 'German'.
I want all domains that end with 'forum' or 'forums'.
If you design the program like in this picture then you don't need to change the keyword file continuously.
