A lot of people underestimate the true power of a private blog network, however they are the easiest and most cost efficient way to rank any site.
I have used them to rank sites across a number of my own sites and client sites in various niches, here are just a handful of the results.
Case Study #1 - T-Shirt Ecommerce Store
This site sells T-Shirts online but organic traffic had been degrading for the past year steadily. A private blog network was deployed at the start of Februrary to drive authority back into the site.
Within 6 months of the campaign starting, organic traffic & business revenue levels grew to the best they have been in over 2 years. This was achieved by securing 92 keywords in the top 5 positions, 221 in positions 6-10 & 213 in positions 11-20.
Case Study #2 - E-Commerce Pet Store
Selling products online in the pet niche, this e-commerce store was struggling to gain any real traction in the search results.
A niche relevant private blog network was deployed which had an immediate impact on rankings-
Not only did traffic double, but the site secured 155 keywords on the top 2 pages with 43 product line keywords that have high commercial intent placed in the top 5.
Case Study #3 - Diet & Weight Loss
This site sells digital products in the diet & weight loss niche & got hit with the Penguin 2.1 penalty at the end of 2013. We started to rebuild authority to the penalised site with private blog networks at the start of February 2014.
Within 2 months organic traffic exploded and continued to grow.
The site is currently ranking for 9,120 keywords within the top 20 positions. 4,051 of which are on the 1st page and 2,158 of those terms in the top 5.
This previously Penguin penalised site now enjoys over 500,000 organic visitors per month which has seen other channels like social media explode at the same time.
Wrapping It Up
As you can see I have used private blog networks to great effect across a number of niches. Not only that but they have been a fundamental part in recovering from backlink penalties.
So now I hope you are starting to understand the true power of private blog networks when they are done right.
I've said it before and I will say it again, once built your private blog network is a true business asset that takes the control out of Google's hands and puts it in yours.
