Human audit of blogs/sites

[AndersSand]

Hi there.

As I asume some of you guys are already experienced with this kind of "product" in your countries, but is never heard of in Denmark before/never seen targeting danish language: What would you do about a site like this: substandard.org ?

I suspect that this particular site isnt legit (its probably a danish seo company), but in general: Should this change my SEO tactics, or put in another way: To your experience, how potentially damaging is a site like this?

A quick check revealed it is new and hosted on corrupted servers, I'd stay clear

Yes I know its new. What do you mean by corrupted servers?. Should I stay away from PBN blogs?. They now require password to see their list. But I saw it a few days ago. They did find a number of danish pbns. But - and thats why I dont think this is a legit service - they didnt find ANY PBNs from a number of pretty large players in Denmark...

Why does that site even concern you? It looks like a pretty low quality site, I wouldn't worry about it.

Firstly use the reply button so the member replying gets an alert, otherwise they won't necessarily know.
Second this analysis should set alarm bells ringing

Your call though op

You are right, it looks low quality. But for an example, they found and explored more than 200 PBN blogs belonging to a well known business in Denmark. None of those blogs were used for others, so they didnt have more than a few external links pointing to his moneysite. As I said eralier, I do suspect this is actually a scam from a danish SEO company, trying to create problems for others in the market. But what I really would like to know, is if this kind of product/service is something Ill need to take seriously

What are you worried about exactly?

 

[AndersSand]

What are you worried about exactly?

Well, take the example with this danish business owner from before. Would you keep the PBNs if it was yours?.

Wouldn't it be easier just to ask in hire a freelancer on here and get an expert to help, seems we are going round in circles.

 

[AndersSand]

Not moving round circles my friend. Im simply asking: If you had a lot of blogs appearing on this site as PBNs, would you drop them right away or slowly while creating new backlinks. Or would you simply say "fuck you substandard.org" and keep your blogs?

Well the reason the PBNs were caught out is because they were built with an easy to identify footprint. Trust me, if you build PBNs with footprints, you can expect your competition to identify them, without this junky site doing it for you.
As to what I would do: I would start building better PBNs, and allow the old links to drop down, then start slowly removing the footprints from those sites.
