I'll say props to Golan for offering a service like this. People don' realize how much works goes into creating and maintaining a private blog network. Running your own small network has huge benefits in term of link juice; especially when you go niche related pumper sites. I don't run a network anymore as I had a fallout with a partner. I'm actually in the process of writing out a HUGE guide on everything involved in building your own private blog network that I plan on posting here on WF. For all the work involved I can say Golan isn't making bank by doing this, prices are pretty fair!
My thoughts exactly, just without the god part.i give up...
Lord, give me strength to accept the things i cannot change,
the courage to change the things i can,
and forgiveness for when i finally snap!!
...AMEN
apologies to golan for crashing his thread!!
You guys know perfectly what I mean and I repeated it several times in this thread... no need in explaining it any further or triggering some kind of stupid flame war with sarcastic troll pictures.
I hope the OP will answer my question. I am sure this service has its place and will perform quite well since there aren't too many providers for this kind of stuff
And here goes the question most sellers will claim is not possible to answer, still it's quite an important one:
How is the price / ranking power ratio compared to just buying links from blog networks? How much power do links from 100 domains you own have in comparison to, say, 2000 links from cheap spam networks? Is it really worth it in terms of cost versus efficiency?
Of course I can see all the benefits of having your own network and thus being in full control and everything, but let's face it: For a guy like me the question is not if I can appear 20% cooler because I have my "own network" but if I will be better off using this in comparison to other services.
"For ballers only", acknowledged, but not everyone has the money to just invest up to 16k without knowing if he'll make that money back. Having balls doesn't mean going to Las Vegas and just betting everything on red, see... that's called being stupid
tl;dr: How much power do these links have?
This is a BST thread, you either buy, review or ask a specific question about a service.
If you don't like what's being offered here, it's not for you. Move on.
@ planetplanet: Fair enough... 
Blog networks "perform" extremely well at ranking websites quickly, that's why i like them so much and that's why i'm constantly on the look-out for new ones... i'm sure many others on this forum are too!
To answer your question, for most of us, our own personal networks do infact "perform" a lot better than most of the other blog networks that are available online. The main reason for this being that we've hand-picked the strongest domains that we could possibly purchase and then nurtured them and developed them with great care and attention. The reasons for doing so should be obvious...
IMO, the only flaw i can see with golan's approach is that he's pitching this at "ballers"... who if they're anything like me (and i'm not saying i'm a baller), will be total control freaks and not leave anything to chance... meaning... anyone who has that kind of money to spend on building out a network, will most likely also have the knowledge and resources to do this themselves.
For those that can't build their own networks, this is a great service and as vinnypolston has already stated...
^^ i'd have to agree with that!!

- your competition cannot get those links... ever!
- you can utilise your network for various campaigns with minimal additional cost
- you have full control of the network, so there are no limitations on how and when you use it
- if you pick the right domains, and do not abuse them, chances are they will pass a manual review and provide you will stable, long-term rankings

Wow, thank you all guys for keeping this tide off shore while I had my first day off in months ))
I can't add much to what our colleagues said above.
The main thing you should know: This is BST thread, you either buy or move on. If you know that generally a certain service fits your SEO strategy and/or tactics but want to clarify some details, you can ask in the thread. If you ordered and the provider didn't deliver, you inform everyone in the thread. Bud if you don't know what is this service about and for and just want to spill some irrelevant critique without ordering the service or even (as in your case) understanding what is it about, you should go starting your thread in a relevant forum section and people will explain you there.
Or just use forum search: there were many threads by our enlightened members recently about benefits of having own pumper networks. I don't provide any links for those threads so that it won't seem I use these people wisdom for self advertisement. After all those threads, all your questions here are mere thread crashing.
No, I don't build any additional links. I want to stress it out once again: these domains already have huge natural backlinks and you can't buy such links in BST. Or they will cost you hundreds which is not reasonable for pumper sites. So any artificial link building here would only dilute the greatness of these link profiles. You understand what I mean?
What I usually do when build such sites for myself, I scrape all these backlinks and spam them deathly to Twitter, to remind SE's of those pages and our links in them. Now, I use Twitter because this is my previous main business and I send thousands tweets with just a hit of a button and this doesn't cost me a dime; but if you don't have this advantage you can perform any social spam like in the best case Red Virus, in the budget case fiverr. Or you bundle these scraped urls to RSS feed and spam them to all RSS aggregators. Or you bundle them into sitemap and spam this sitemap to every hole in the Web. Or whatever you know and can. All these backlinking pages are your Tier-2, you see? Here you have a perfect and fun case to refresh all your SEO-2010 skills :xmas-smiley-016:
And for these our Tier-1 sites, I think Red Virus blast won't hurt. But that's all.
Anyway, this Twitter bump is definitely what I can do for you if you order.

Came here to post this but ddasilva (sup bro?) beat me to it. I'll just add that sometimes, my pumper stuff he builds out ranks along with my target sites after I give it some link love. Dat multiple spots on page 1 feeling...
He didn't mention this, and I probably shouldn't, but someone with some drive and hustle could leverage these into some high ROI ORM gigs.
I can not fully agree with this... One can have knowledge - yes, but what about resources? To build this network is a huuuge time resource spent. "Anyone who has that kind of money" - how low should he value his working time to build these sites himself? He may better spend this time for something more meaningful. And spend his money resources for building this network.
Let me quote our enlightened friend:
That's what I'm talking about. Let me build your network for you. You will spend much less money resource for it than you would spend your priceless time resource doing this yourself.
Ordered 20 Microsites from Golan about a month ago. Very thorough work. Impressed and will order again.
Answering here for one very common question:
Q. Are you able to find National TLD like .co.uk and others?
A. Sure, I always find a lot of .co.uk in my searches. Also .ca, .us and some others. If you have a possibility to register .co.au you are a lucky bastard because I have real gold - free domains with DA 50+ and even 70+. Not many of other nTLD though.
