Lets say I found 4 solid expired domains that I want to build legit websites out (with all social profiles, unique phone number and everything) and link back to my main niche site which is related on totally different hosting?

I know competitors could spy and found out if I leave some kind of footprint (beside hosting ip) but that is to be expected when using a shared hosting? I would be using shared since I think it would look more natural.

Let me know your thoughts.
 
So you mean placing them all on one hosting account linking to the same website? It is definitely a footprint, I think it's always better to take the safer option as you would be devastated to wake up one morning to be on page 5 for all your hard work.

It would be like a sponsor thing I would also outlink to some other related websites so that should hide the footprint. They would all have unique phone numbers on the website including info. Think of it like hosting 4-5 different similar business websites that do the same. Besides my main website got alot of authority links so doubt it would affect in a negative way?
 
I forgot to mention I will be making image links since I dont have any for my website just text based or so it seems based on my link report.
 
maximum website for shared hosting is 2

from my experience, PBN never got pinalty from algorithm, they do manual checking before punish some PBN

so my advice, even you have 2 PBN in same shared hosting, try use diversity webite.

For example, if PBN A is a blog website, then PBN B should ecoomerce, PBN C is landing page with provide some service like webmaster

just try to make look like moneysite.... post about me in right sidebar with some professional picture
 
Definitely do not put them on the same shared hosting. That's one of the basic rules of PBNs. Also, wasting decent PBN domains for image links doesn't really make sense. You can make image links out of Tumblr for example, but try to put your PBN links within body of the content. Otherwise it's a waste.
 
Don't put on the same host. It is the biggest footprint of all.
shared hosting is fine because no one buys dedicated hosting for a pbn
 
cloakhosting.com puts your domains on different servers. and use whois guard to block google.

don't go for a seo hosting ..... its not many domains. find some cheap webpage and put there 1 domain each
 
Definitely separate IPs otherwise it won't work, and image links from good authority PBNs sounds like a waste too IMO
 
I'm currently beta testing a service which is head and shoulders above some. Ideal for management and creation form 5 - 1000 PBN sites.

Host your blogs on unique IP addresses using popular cloud providers like AWS, DigitalOcean, Linode, and more = not cheap $1 hosting
 
Thank you guys for your input. I think I still have my 15k credit account of AWS laying around somewhere so I might as well use that to host the websites. I just thought shared hosting would be the least noticeable footprint since well I thought google cant really predict if lets say 4 legit websites (properly made) are hosted on 1 shared hosting as I think that kind of looks natural to me (some hosting sold same shared hosting space to 5 different providers).
