Thanks again for answers.

So, one link from one PBN.

Even if you have like 50 articles published on each of yours pbns and your money site has like hundreds of pages that you want to rank. Even in this scenario, only one link from the strongest page of each PBN to one page of your money site. Did I understand correctly?

Yes. The strongest page on your PBN is in most cases the homepage, jfyi ;-)

And you don't need 50 articles on your PBN.
 
Hey, thanks a lot for such a great info. How you hiding your public PBN you selling here? And are you blocking some crawlers for publich pbn in case to keep it safe and prevent someone who can find your links to report them?
 
how many times can you link to your money site from a single pbn

lets say you have 15 pbn's, can you use the same anchor text linking to your MS
 
Sorry, been busy for a while. Below are the answers.

Think I answered this a few times in the thread already :)

hello bro,
how to use and place the anchors properly
Click to expand...

That depends on how your existing anchor profile.

We personally like to use our PBNs to snipe exact match or brand + exact match anchors. We sometimes use phrase too, but selectively.

  • Guest posts and link inserts are great for any type of anchor and we use these in rather big volumes to diversify.
  • HARO or other digital PR links + infographic bait are great for branded anchors, raw URL anchors and generic mentions. It's a numbers game, but totally free and worth it.
  • Citations (business, video, social, image), branded guest posts, press rel. (the real kind) and other contextual properties (web 2.0s) are awesome for raw + brand anchors.

Already answered a few times in the thread.

We prefer to link to our money site only once per PBN. Mostly from the homepage of the PBN (while funneling link equity from rebuilt inner page via internal links)
 
Thanks for this thread, I've found it really informative.

In a previous response, you mentioned using MOZ DA for your domain evaluation metrics.

1) To clear this up for me, is this an accurate summation of your criteria when you evaluate domains?
  • RD15+ - Ahrefs (Referring / Root Domains)
  • DR5+ - Ahrefs (Domain Rating)
  • Optional: DA5-10+ - MOZ (Domain Authority)
2) I've got a number of domains that have metrics like, for example, Ahrefs DR 24, RD 10, TOTAL LINKS 122.
However, most of the links are from niche relevant forum signatures or posts.
Is it worth using these in a PBN targeting the same niche?

Thanks again!

1) Yes. But those are just the absolute minimum. Recently we focused on the RDs (links) and clean history only. A decent DR or DA is nice, but not a must.

2) The RD is a bit low, tbh. But if the links are super relevant and the domain has a clean history, it can work.
For sites with such a low RD we like to built some additional tier 2 links, to power them up even further.

And I probably wouldn't pay more than $50 for a domain like this.

Thanks.
PS: I've got a recurring discount code for an 'under-the-radar' VPS host with their own IP ranges which work out at about $5.
PM me if you want it :)
 
For email creation, with Zoho, do I need for each domain a different phone number and email, or I can put all emails under one account?
I didn't get that part from digitalocean tut.
And it so, how to do that? Can you please help?

Thanks a lot

With the free account you can only use it for one single domain. So for each domain, you need a separate account.
 
Thank you for this AMA, so in-depth and informative! I have managed to write pages and pages of notes, much appreciated mate
 
Thanks a lot. Regarding digitalocean, if I use that one, in all my domains I should add their nameservers, is that correct?
ns1.digitalocean.com? And those NS will pull the certain IP?

Thanks again

Yes, that's correct.
 
Thank you very much.
And can you please recommend to me the best plugins I should use in all PBn websites?

It depends on what you want to do with your PBN, but the plugins we use most are:
  • Wordfence
  • Really Simple SSL
  • WP Rocket Pro
  • Elementor PRO (not on all sites, but the themes that support it)
  • Imagify or Smush
  • Rank Math / Yoast
  • WPForms or Contact 7
  • Redirection
  • Disable Comments
Note that these are not mandatory, but certainly helpful. Wordfence is an absolute must have along with daily backups.
 
Thanks as always.
What country IP's you using the most?
 
Hi, do u think expired domains work now and do u make the same content as per wayback archive?

US.

Expired domains are still a good choice - having said that, if you can go for an indexed auction domain.

We use fresh content, but rebuild the URL structure.
