At least.. given how this thread ended, I can only assume it failed.

Yikes... You really hate to see it.

Cant guarantee anything in internet marketing. Otherwise we’d all be rich. Looks like he went overboard with the blackhat/greyhat linking from the looks of it, Google gets smarter everyday

If you could rank a site with $5 links, I'd outrank pfizer for viagra.

A lot of failed journeys have the kind of spending this guy was doing.

Trying to jumpstart everything by purchasing whatever he thought looked cool or useful, but without the knowledge to understand he actually needed. The guy didn't even pick his own niche, he just paid for someone to find him one and build the site for it.

He also kept saying a lot of what he did was because some guru said to do it that way. Seemed like he really bought into the idea that if he just did everything he was told he'd succeed pretty much instantly. When that didn't happen after like 1.5 months, and instead he got screwed by the guru's bad advice, he just abandoned the journey entirely.

No motivation and too much start invstment which leads to depression and unwilling to dedicate more time to the site. This is why MOST not ALL fail

It is surprising to see that the journey has failed even though he used multiple PBNs.
