In today’s video, you’re going to learn more about private blog networks and their ability to rank money websites in SEO.

Now to this day, people have been using PBN’s to rank their websites by sending links to one domain in an effort to power op their SEO rankings. But many may wonder, does building out a private blog network actually result in positive SEO rankings? Or does it damage SEO rankings in 2019?
