Risk vs Reward question

[Chris R]

For those who’ve experimented with PBNs in the last 6 months, are you seeing diminishing returns or are they still effective when done carefully?

They can still work when done carefully, but returns aren’t what they used to be. The networks need to be higher quality, well-themed, and supported with clean link profiles. Sloppy footprints or over-optimization get picked up fast, so they’re more of a supplement now than a main strategy.

Still effective when done carefully. Don't interlink them to each others. If something is working on a website it doesn't mean it will work on another one.

Exactly, they’re not dead, but the margin for error is razor thin now, so only well-built, niche-relevant networks with natural link patterns are worth the risk. but I wouldn't recommend it lol
