Hello Warriors,

How do i link from my PBN?

I have my own PBN and i want to link my personal money sites.

The question is: where do i put links to money sites?
1. sidebar
2. posts

If i want to link domain, is ok to put backlinks in sidebar and backlinks for another urls from that domain in posts?

Thanks for any answer!

If most of the backlinks to your PBN sites are pointing towards the homepage then that's where you want your links.

Some people write one long article for the homepage in which to add their links and this is my preferred method.

If you create additional posts with links back to your money sites then the benefit you get is lower since the juice has to flow one more step.

How many pages are you intending to add to each network site?

The only reason I can see to add links in the sidebar is if you are linking out to lots of unrelated money sites and you cannot write one article to accommodate all of them without it seeming forced.

Thanks

Frequently add fresh content to my PBN, two or tree post a week.

That is a waste. There is no reason to add new content to a network type site.

Hey Mike, do you think adding content might be important from a future proofing perspective for google aglos? Adding content to the network site look like a "legitimate site", instead of the 2013 WP basic theme and stuff that screams network, maybe put a little more work into it to make it look legitimate (e.g adding content, graphics etc.).

Thanks

I don't think adding content will have anything to do with it.

There are tons of legitimate, quality sites out there which have not been updated in years.

Thanks Mike. Do you think moving forward Google will start looking at the type of links that are built to the PBN blog sites? For example if you bought an expired domain that was previously about tourism. You buy the site, re-theme it, and are now using this for your PBN to link out to your finance industry based money sites. Perhaps G in the future will look at the type of links that were previously built to your PBN, in this case it used to be about tourism and as such is not relevant, so they might discredit the links in future algo updates.

Do you think G is heading towards doing that in the future?

Thanks again for your feedback

Thanks

There are tons of legitimate reasons that domains change hands and topics for.

They could do something like that in the future if they wanted to though.

I really do not think they need to get anywhere near that complicated to start hunting down networks though. Most stick out like sore thumbs. Just buy any WSO here that is offering links on a network and take a look at the sites. They are awful and extremely easy to identify.

Most networks like that are selling to so many customers that there is tons of overlap on their sites. All you have to do is get one, and you can unravel the whole thing in a few minutes.

Thanks again Mike, excellent feedback.

I suppose then if you keep the PBN private, for yourself only, re-theme it, remove obvious foot prints (get unique IPs etc), and keep the content surrounding your links relevant you should be sailing safe for awhile to come then?

Thanks

Stay away from public networks unless you are just using them for churn and burn.

Just curious here, but what is your definition of "legitimate website". Something more than a 2 page thin content affiliate page im assuming?

Meaning just like any other website you might find in the niche. There should be no difference between it any other good site covering the same topics.

Thanks again Mike, last question and I will stop bothering you. But for a single blog within a PBN how many times can you link to a specific money website from a single PBN. I have read before you shouldn't link out from a single PBN blog with a post to a specific money site more than once, not sure how much legitimacy the source has.

Whats your recommendation?

For example
PBN blog A
PBN blog B
PBN blog C

Each one links to moneysite.com no more than once. Basically asking if each blog on a PBN can only link to the moneysite once. So, if there are 10 blogs in the PBN with 10 posts each (100 blogs in total), then each blog can only link once (1 out of 10 posts) for a total of 10 links across the PBN?

Thanks

To be honest, I tend to just stick to one link per PBN site but other methods are no doubt effective too.

There is no single answer, just lots of people with their own opinions. I personally do things my way and no doubt Mike and anyone else has their own take on what's best.

My main thought when building a PBN is footprints (and not leaving any!)

Thanks

I personally think that only one link out on a site is a footprint. What sites only link out to only one site? With only one page? I would at least put up several pages and link out to other sites not your own (wikipedia, etc), that would help the sites legitimacy and make it not so obvious it is a PBN should it ever get discovered in the future. Just my thoughts

Thanks

The other pages I create also have on-topic links that a reader might find useful (should anyone ever read it).

Is there a particular reason you do this? Does having multiple posts from the same PBN blog site to the same money site leave a bigger foot print? Or are you more concerned from a link juice perspective?

Thanks

  I will suggest you to link your homepage from sidebar and other pages from post content. i.e. hyperlinking.
