The mention of 0 targets added could be one of many issues, if your proxies are bad there will be 0 targets returned, if the keywords are especially targeted then a lot of platforms won't have pages for them. If you have enabled the option to re-search a failed search and the proxies are causing issues then you will see more "0 targets added".
I have just released an update that has a small update to the way NHSEO searches Google with proxies that have been over-used but not outright blocked yet so it may improve the situation for you, the update can be had from the members area or by clicking on the Update button on the toolbar of the software.
Ultimately NHSEO is meant to be very hands off, the more it is played around with the less it will be able to settle in and work properly, it is not intended to be changed up constantly.
When a new profile is setup it will first post the pages in the profile to built in lists of whois and link shortener sites. As these do not require searching for more posting can be done to these right off the bat, they also have a higher chance of resulting in a link so the number of links will also climb quickly when a new profile is added. Once these lists are exhausted the software has to rely on searching for targets and posting to sites that likely have a much lower likelihood of resulting in a link so posting and link creation can seem to drop but it is still doing what is intended.
If you have the option to re-search a keyword when a search fails due to bad proxies enabled this will cause NHSEO to perform a failed search again which will result in more "0 targets added" until the search succeeds.
If you are using public scraped proxies they must be google passed proxies only, assuming you are searching google in NHSEO. If you are using Yahoo for searching the requirements for proxies is less than if using Google but they should still be checked for the ability to be used for searching in Yahoo.
