From the numbers 75% of sites that get a private blog network will improve their rankings in 1 month. Eliminating the 1 outlier who had a Google Penalty applied to it the average increase was a 40% increase.

​

​

I really thought the reason for a PBN not working would be the quality(as judged by me doing a manual review) of the money site but that showed almost no correlation to improved rankings.

Based on the sample we have a PBN will not work in 2 cases…

1. The on page SEO is bad (2 instances)
2. An unrelated Google penalty strikes at the same time (1 instance)

So the bottom line here is that if your on page SEO is in the dumps improve it before considering building a powerful private blog network.

If your on page SEO is solid B or higher based on the free tool at http://www.quicksprout.com/(free) or http://www.woorank.com (paid) then there is a good chance that a PBN will result in increased rankings.

3 Cases Where SERP Was Lower 1 Month After PBN Was Built

Timeline of PBN Sites Being Built vs Search Ranking

​

5 sites is clearly effective however the most impressive graph turning around a steep downward trend and bouncing back to exceed its previous rankings had the most sites built as part of the PBN.

I do not have enough data to answer this question accurately at this point though, eventually I will.

​

​

​

One site was recently penalized we believe due to some blackhat tactics and the recovery did not go well for it -770% drop in rankings (ouch).

While on a more positive note, 1 site that was clearly slipping in Google got turned around while the PBN sites were being built…

However, this is only one example and I don’t want to claim it would work in every case!

The sites are yours, if you want to transfer the domains to your hosting accounts no problem. My VA will provide you with the backup and push the domains to your NameCheap or GoDaddy account for $25/site.

No time at all – you can cancel at any time! I will refund you your monthly fee (set up fee is not refundable unless I fail to deliver on the sites metrics). You do not need to wait a certain number of months before you get the refund.

Yes, just contact me and let me know what you are looking for and I am sure we can handle it.

Yes, you can monetize your site however you want. In fact I am sure there will be several peoples feeder sites which will start performing well enough to become money sites of their own. You can place AdSense, Amazon or any CPA offer on the sites. I do not recommend leaving a footprint for SEO purposes.

No – The sites are yours. My VA will produce one article per month for your network. No one will sell links to your sites.

Either, just let me know, if you want me to build the natural links let me know what your money site is and I will include them in your article.

Yes, once per month per network is what I publish to the sites to keep them fresh. If you want to publish more frequently simply log in and publish whatever you want.

Yes, I recommend not going overboard with this but if you have a few money sites all within a similar niche it is logical that the sites would naturally link out to the money sites and you can get a bigger bang for your buck that way!

Unfortunately no, I don’t install Google Analytics or other since that would leave a footprint and setting up a “fake” google account from different IP addresses just to create analytics would get a little silly. However, checking Alexa you can get a rough idea if a site is starting to get real traffic and you want to think about making it a money site.
