      Hi users MOZ:
      I bought a couple of expired domains to create a private blog network but I can't create the sites yet. While i prepare the sites, it is good idea to do a 301 redirect with them?

        Hi Juan,

        Yes I would redirect them, not for the sake of SEO but mostly to make sure that if traffic arrives at these domain names that it will be send to an actual site instead of a placeholder.

            Hi Josh, I do not agree with you. The on page SEO factors are important but also the links, and create private networks of blogs well made, as natural as possible, can be a good option. I think to use a different A-Class IP hosting for the expired domains with real new and fresh content..

              Hi Josh.

              I do agree with you in the fact that SEO is no only about links. 
              BUUUTTT links still are pretty the most difficult part to do in the SEO stategy.

              Woking as a freelancer o ina big agency, I think that (only if you can afford it) having a really well done PBN on your back is great. Of course always, you cant abuse from the PBN.
