Hi everyone! Last month, we made a big change: we stopped using Dropbox, which we’ve been using for a long time. We were facing too many problems with Dropbox, so we switched to sharing the Asia Virtual Solutions Link List on Google Drive.
Many of you use GSA Search Engine Ranker, just like we do. With Dropbox, getting the newest updates for the Link List was easy. But moving to Google Drive gave us a challenge. After installing the Google Drive Desktop app, we noticed that connecting it to the shared Link List wasn’t easy. The main issue was that the Link List was shared as “View Only” in the “Shared With Me” section of Google Drive. And when you tried to see it through the Google Drive Desktop app, it didn’t show up. This was a big problem because it meant you couldn’t get the latest GSA SER Link List updates like before.
But don’t worry! After trying different things and working hard, we found a way to solve this. We’re excited to show you how to access the Asia Virtual Solutions Link List through the Google Drive Desktop app. Follow the steps below and watch the video we’ve put together to help you set everything up correctly. We’re here to make sure you can do this easily.
Things you will need to connect the list to GSA SER.
