Has anyone got any advice or recommendations about using these for back links now??

      Not sure you mean Blog networks in general or services.

      I would only use a very exclusive network service nowadays direct to a money site or use some to juice up my own network (truly exclusive where you control everything)

    Yep , exclusive networks are the best. I prefer homepage links though, blog networks are usually extremely abused. They typically, not always, have spun content and posts about random subjects. Think hemorrhoid creams, payday loans, then a post about las vegas hotels. While you may need all three in Vegas, they still don't look natural.

    I referred a fellow WF member to a network I use as a starting phase for all of my projects and he ripped them off and did a chargeback on months of work. Now I'm not keen on referring anyone anymore. One bad seeds gotta ruin it for everyone.

    Avoid large well known networks like the plague. Any network that becomes well know is an easily destroyed target.

    Build your own private network via guest posts, it works much, much better.

      That's very true, yet most people always tend to use these "big name" blog networks straight to their money sites, then wonder why they got penalized.

      My advice, if that's the route you're looking to go, build your own network.

    Blog networks have been absolute poison for a long time now ( that is public blog networks). If you are building your own private network it is a lot safer. But it also requires technical knowledge, effort, time and money... because you can't leave a footprint for Google to find.

      How would you recommend building a private network?

        Buy sites/domains that already have a good backlink profile and pagerank. Host these on separate servers and use private whois.

        Keep track of your outbound linking so you're not creating a footprint too.
