Evaluating Metrics for PBN

Hi there, black hat gurus

Im setting up a small pbn - 10 to 20 blogs - and im on that phase that we need to evaluate the domains we are deciding to invest on. My goal here is to find only domains with the extension of my country.

But I need a bit of help from you. I know we need to check the backlink quality of every domain, but Majestic, MOZ and ahrefs metrics help us to trim down our list to check each domain.

My question is: which metric you guys value the most? Trust Flow from Majestic? Domain Rating from ahrefs? Domain authority from moz?

Any thoughs will be appreciated!

all the best and thanks for giving the best for this community

Referring domains.

Then, based on how many domains you need to process, ideally DR. However, if you need to process large quantities, which Ahrefs doesn't really allow, because they are crap in this regard, then at least some TF is required. Forget DA, that's a joke.

So referring domains are a must and then either DR or TF.

there you go, you can trust @Nargil regarding queries about expired domains

Moz's DA is too bad. dont trust on that. Try to go with Ahref's DR. I have seen many examples where a site with high DR getting tons of search traffic.

sometimes I come accross some weird data... but I guess that it all comes down to backlink analysis.
For instance, there's this domain that has DR22 from ahrefs. It has a .gov link and some other solid do follow links - half dozen - from serious institutions. No sign of spam at all. Majestic gives it a TF4.
Do you guys have the impression that link "freshness" is a variant on TF algorythm?
