I purchased 10 links from one of the better sellers on here and wondered how long before I should see a result from these. The links are 12 dollars each.

I have waited 8 weeks and no result or change in the serps has happened.

The seller says it takes a long time but surely 8 weeks is long enough?
 
I think it depends on the niche, and competition also if the links are indexed. But 8 weeks is a while, maybe check other SEO factors
 
In 8 weeks you should see something. Depends what kind of links are they, how many OBL in total and if they’re even indexed. One-time $12 for a PBN is a low price and usually you get what you pay for.

he could also pay 200 USD per one and get nothing.

i recommend doign things yourself if you have time.

a thread "i bought pbn links 2 months ago and they didnt move me even a little bit" appears everyday
 
I tried a lot of stuff here in the marketplace..most of them are crap.

However, You may see an increasing in rankings after 2 weeks or something, However, after 2 3 months.max your site will start losing rankings ( If you only depend on these packages )

It's because links die - linking sites disappear, get deindexed or get filled with too many links... Usually that's the case with one-time link blasts, you should make sure what kind of links you get and that they stick around.
 
Yes I do a lot of the seo myself. With the pbns I wanted to gauge what quality of pbns would be needed to move a keyword and the test told me that it's not worth having RD in the 10s but rather in the 100s.
 
I only use packages as a way to get a keyword up to page 3 - 4. After that you need to either build your own niche related mini pbn network specifically for that keyword and/or get some real guest posts on related websites. Recently I am noticing that after I throw a few of my own specifically-built pbn links from aged domains that are 100% relevant, the ranking will drop (sometimes dramatically) before bouncing around for awhile and then settling at a much higher position. This can take several weeks. If you haven't seen any movement after 8 weeks you aren't going to.

As for $12 being a low price for a pbn link @don chino I think it is way over priced! Generic PBN types of packages simply cannot rank a decent keyword anymore so are only worth what they are worth - which is very little.

My advice is to throw some fairly cheap pbn links at the page using diverse anchors and then put in the work to get guest posts or build a handful of really good pbns yourself. You will see much more movement with much less links and you will have full control over those links as well for future algo changes. Just IMHO.
 
2 weeks - 3months in 95% of the cases i'd say
 
I think you have unrealistic expectations. What you bought are probably one time links that are LONG gone from homepage. No improvement from the ever.
 
I'd give it one more month.. if you haven't seen results by then, chances are you won't. Sorry :x
 
PBN links does not means any magic trick. It always depend on competition of that keyword and many other things.
 
Were they aimed at just a single page (sub page) with no links to your home?
I ask as had built up a few links, saw 0 movement, then added a few to the home page and all the sub pages moved.

This is actually some really good advice.
 
The website has about 20 pages indexed. The test page I built approx 100 links to diversify and the page was sitting at pos 30 for 3 months stable. They are crappy gsa links so it shows the keyword is not hard to rank.

Home page has about 500 links on it, some of the keywords ranking high on page 1.

I used the testpage to gauge how 10 quality links would affect the keyword on the testpage . In 10 weeks it has not moved.

The pbns appear to be decent.
 
Have you taken a look at the content other sites are using to rank for the keyword? Ie length, what they discuss?
With the site being at least 3 months old it shouldn’t be sandbox’d either.
When you ordered what was the mix of LSIs to exact match?
 
You have to first look at the competition. You can buy as much links as you want, if they are better optimized, you won't be ahead of them. Now if you literally see no results, then the links are not good.

The best way to do things is do it yourself, create a system out of what works and then outsource so you free up time to focus on the higher level work. It takes time, but it's better to get rich slow than not get rich at all.
 
Every thing is depend upon niche, keyword competition, PBN back link
 
It depends on niche but after 2 months and you don’t see anything - probably not good links. Rather than buy 10 ten dollar links - buy one good PBN for $100. Make it look legit and put an HQ link. These are way more effective.
