The same group (i believe) responsible for a previous network (or two or three) -- Think.. SEO Link Monster- will be interesting to see how it all plays out. " build an incredible blog network into iWriter, allowing you to submit EVERY single article written on iWriter, to this massive blog network of websites! All websites are indexed by Google. All range anywhere from Page Rank 0 to Page Rank 3 websites. If a website becomes de-indexed for one reason or another, we replace your submission by placing you on another website." I've been here for 5 years but don't post frequently enough to have the trust to link it for you, but.. it's located on a blog on the site, so not at all difficult to find..What's your take on it?
I would stay away from public link networks. Even if they start well with plenty of promises - yeah, we keep quality guidelines, strict editorial controls, no footprints - in the end their standards slip, they get greedy, and google penalizes them. If you are into building links from blog networks, better build your own private blog network.
Right there with you. As I said, I will be interested in how it plays out, but I think we all know where it's going.
