Is PBN is black hat method for SEO?

[PrimeItSolution]

Yes, PBN is black hat, the blackest. Google absolutely hates these and will immediately penalize your site if they catch you using them. This can be devastating, as they tend to be pretty expensive to buy pre-made.

They are not safe, but they are highly effective and can jettison your rank up in the SERPs until you’re caught.

If you have confidence in the network of PBNs you’ve chosen, they will rank your site. But, if Google catches you, you’re sites going to take a hit.

Each PBN site links to the site they want to boost in the search results but do not link to each other. Black Hat SEOs wanting to build a private network will normally buy expired domains that have already built up authority.

It depends. Usually sites in PBN dont have value and building PBN to funnel link juice to money-making site is unethical.
