you can use the French PBN for your German sites, however if there are any competitive sites, they'll have an advantage usually. I'd keep the anchors to branding whenever you include them within the articles, as German words mixed with French words is kinda eeeh. I don't think I need to tell you...

Well, your best bet is to start with the local language :P. A lot of the German-speaking sites (.de, .ch or .at) do rank in all 3 countries. As a previous commentator already mentioned the local TLD as well as local hosting although hosting doesn't really make a huge difference as a lot of .at...

The SPAM Score isn't any good. The different indicators are clearly explained in the moz blog but the weight each one is given seems to be off at least in my opinion. I simply ignore it if anyone uses it as a metric as it doesn't make any sense to use it at this moment.

It honestly depends on what your short-term goals are. Do you want to use your blog's content to sell YOUR product or do you want to sell someone else's product via your blog? In both cases, it can be a very time consuming process to make any noteworthy return. If you want to sell a product...

I've generally never had any bad experiences with GoDaddy. They have gotten slow in the past months though.

Not too big of a fan when it comes to moz (DA/PA) unfortunately a lot of people still refer to them instead of other metrics such as TF. For Western European sites, I prefer using sistrix.

Try the local internet marketers :). Another site might be the SeedingUp platform, they work with around 1000 local Italian bloggers.

The two I work with: Sponsored Posts via platforms or directly contacting potential advertisers Affiliate Marketing, find content relevant sites that have an affiliate program you can work with (and are trusted)

Keep going with Adsense and add other options that don't litter your site with ads. E.g. sponsored content (appropriately marked of course), if you don't have any inquiries, or want more, platforms such as seedingup work where advertisers look for that sort of stuff.

Agreed. Social shares or social activity validates links and new potential links.

Definitely still interested in this. Shoot me a PM with price.

It really depends what you are looking for. Finding blogs to guest post on usually takes time but saves money. There are still great platforms out there which work, including Postjoint. Another platform is teliad, they are useful if you're trying to do international SEO and work with...

They did receive a penalty recently, it does seem they're still legit though. I've been a little more careful with these types of sites recently, especially if any kind of lists get sent around or if URLs are seen instantly. Also, if you're going to be monetizing with guest posts / sponsored...

Great post. I guess getting started is always the hard part. I started out and I didn't receive any money for months (not weeks and tbh I wasn't really going for that either). Agreed, however, some networks don't really go for PR anymore. Do you still use teliad, they had some pretty big...

Will be interesting to see what the next victim will be. I don't think that it's going to be teliad simply because there is no extra code in their integration process and everything needs to be done manually (which is a pain sometimes) - this is why they really don't fit into the...
