I have 15 PBN and they are all set up with content and I have waited for more than 1month+ to start linking my website. Now I'm targeting an easy/medium niche which on page 2 without any PBN so I'm hoping that my first PBN test will help me go page 1.

The problem is I don't know what keyword to use and how many times. What is your rule about the main keyword? How many time you use it on your PBN. I don't want any over optimize penalty from google by using my keywords too much.

So my question is.. what keyword density to use on my PBN when linking my MoneySite? Also, do you use naked URL on PBN or not?

I stick with
90% of my PBNs are either naked or branded links.
I then mix the last 10% with LSIs, long tails, and exact match.
 
nobody can give you perfect numbers, you need to test.
just make sure its not all exactly the same keyword you link throughout your PBN(s).
 
Naked url, brand, LSI and general words like "click here".
 
Use 50% Main Keyword, 30% LSI And 20% Brand, Naked, Generic Keywords!
 
I would use only brand.. not raw url, you can throw 1 or 2 long tail anchors. However pbn's are not so effective as they used to be 2 year ago.. at least they are not for me in my niche whatever setup, domain quality or anchors i tried.
 
Finally i have got a thread where i can plan for my upcoming PBN.Thanks for this post

As per my readings and analysis its usually 70% long tail keywords,20%brand name or naked anchors and 10% generic anchors. [Didnt try it though just analysis of other websites]

BDW i am planning to set up 15-20 PBN for my journey which is https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/amazon-affiliate-journey-to-50-per-day.986041/ .It will be great if you update your rankings after using PBN and the strategy for anchor which you will finally use.

This is exactly what I use. The relevancy of anchor text has been falling for a few years now and every update lowers the bar for overoptimisation even lower. In 2013 you were okay with 20% exact match anchor, nowadays you are okay merely with 5% and Few years later it might be less (these are made up numbers, I just want to prove the point). Thus, considering the risk:reward ratio of having high exact/partial anchor percentages is not the best. So I always play it safe. Also, it's easier to add exact/partial anchors additionally then go over the line and try to remedy the situation.

I usually go with:
20% - Exact URL: http://site.com
60% - Long Tail Keywords (20+ keywords)
10% - Misc (click here)
10% - Top 3 Keywords (3.3% per keyword)
 
I usually mix up main kw-s, LSI, generic, naked url / domain without paying much attention to %, but to make it look natural and how my competitors ranking on page 1 have their anchor clouds.

With pbn links,

I like

40% : naked url/url etc
30% : brand name
20% : LSI
5% : partial keyword + brand name
5% : exact match

Overall I like :
30% : naked url/url etc
40% : brand name
10% : LSI
5% : generic keywords
5% : partial keywords
5% : partial keyword + brand name
3%: exact + brandname
2% : exact match

Working good these days :)
 
The anchor rule depends on the niche you're in. Some niches allow you to be more aggressive than others.
