I'm going to keep this simple. You will see an email I received from a long time collaborator of mine below. He and his partners have been building networks for a year and a half now and in fact put together a project for me this past year. The sites are all PR2 - PR5, multiple C class IP's and fresh (they have not been used for any links yet). I seem to open up a can of worms every time I discuss issues of this nature but I know there is a core group of readers that can benefit from such a network. If you understand link building and have a stable of sites in need of some help then this is for you. If you don't understand what this is all about don't sweat it - you're not ready for this yet. I am not being paid for promoting this nor is there an affiliate link - just an email you can contact the owners with. I am not publicizing the name of this network and ask any of you who join to keep it to yourselves. This has a ton of potential if we keep it under the radar and within our community. It is not being publicized anywhere else. And yes - I am the first and only member using it at the moment - so don't screw it up with spam and dumb ass linking strategies. (No I don't use any networks with this site - it's as white as snow in case you were going to check my links... lol)
Here is the email...

You can mention that people can email us at linknetwork@rocketship.com. Once we approve them we will let them in. The first 10 people to email us will get the service at $107 dollars for their first month and then $127 a month following. The system is based on good behavior, and releases 2-5 posts per day per website you want links for. Users that use the system the way it is intended according to the rules are rewarded with more posts pushed out to the network per day on each of their projects. The network has automation as well, so the more a user is trusted, the more automated their articles will be, which means pushing links out to the network faster rather than waiting for a review.
The reason this network is better than the others is that several of the more popular networks which I have researched have serious flaws which make it easy to uncover all the sites in their networks. This network has eliminated those types of trails. The network is also constantly stocked with fresh blogs. Another feature which we are looking at implementing in the future is posting articles to static websites. This means a whole new dimension to the way Google views those links. Other options COMING SOON include posting to blogs built for only one topic. This means more targeted links which makes them even more powerful. The limit on users allowed to join the network is 30, and once that is filled we will put others on a waiting list to join if/when we open back up.
And that is that - if you have questions fire away but I may dodge a few of them as I no longer like discussing this issue in public. It works. It is how the real money is made. And it is Taboo.
Update: The 30 positions have been filled. You can still sign up on the waiting list in the event of future openings.
Cheers

Private Network - 30 Positions
Project Payday - A Legit Method to Make Money at Home
I have included Project Payday on my blog for all of my readers who write in asking if there are any legit online programs that they can use to make some quick money. Project Payday is not a get rich quick scheme - it is more like a work at home job. You don't need a blog or website as it involves getting paid to try out trial offers from online advertisers. There is work to this but you can realistically earn a couple of hundred dollars a day if you want to put in the effort.
I have written several posts about this and suggest you start with this one. Project Payday
Unfortunately Project Payday is only available to American users at this time.
CashCrate is another program similar to Project Payday and they do accept people world wide - it's free to join.
For comparative purposes the stats below reflect my actual earnings with Cashcrate.

Don't want to make a comment on the link network - I understand it's value. But I did notice that this post was just made so I was hoping I'd get the gold position!
Tracey ;)
Lol... and the Gold goes to Tracey! Well done but you didn't leave your URL. I'm guessing that this is the right Tracey?

Grizz is the nicest brear I've ever seen. Much nicer than this bear: http://justkiddingbutseriously.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/46-grizzly-nut-shot.jpg
Ouch... Brawny you have too much time on your hands! Here is a link to the pic -

As for the "only ebook I have ever promoted", I would suggest that Janet invest in a better looking cover and a more professional looking sales page.
I know that ugly and simple gets Adsense clicks but it does not make sales of real products where people have to pull out a credit card.
I have read the book though, and it is excellent.
Sam,
Not sure I agree with you. I like the fact that it isn't a hyped up one page sales letter that drones on and on. Btw - it is converting at about 2% which ain't bad given I haven't posted about it - yet. (I will be doing a review shortly)
For those in the dark this is the book in question.
Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online
It outlines the formula I use to make money online and is written by Janet Smith - a long time reader of this blog.
Grizz, if I could get any one program that is less than $100 a month, which program would help my online ventures most? I have earned about $130 so far, and I would like to invest some of it into something that will help me make lots more money. So, should I go for a linkbuilding service like Connect Content(which is not working yet, and I have heard that the links are not the best), or maybe a article place like Article Marketing Automation, or what else would help me MOST?
I do not think I can cover the $127 cost of this network yet, I am up to only about $80 a month and only have 4 sites and not too much time to manage them-about an hour a day. What do you recommend I do?
*Can't wait for your posts on the serp updates. My best site is down to less than 20 uniques a day for some reason. Probably caus I have been lazy with link building lately and posting, so I wrote a nice 2000 word post for it and grabbed a couple links last night, hopefully the big G will take a liking to me again.

Send me a email - we'll discuss this privately. I'm heading out for a few hours but I will get back to you later.
too bad i just have one website and a server at the moment..
:(
Guess I should keep my opinions to myself but here we go. If you have the money and you have the sites then you pretty much should jump on this. Sadly it's just the way the big game is played. I probably won't be spending my money on this but then again I won't be making the money that those of you who try it potentially will. I'm not willing to commit to all the ridiculous hoops that you must jump through to be successful in this business. But then again I won't be spending my day playing golf like folks like Griz do either. To be successful you have to be very aggressive. I hate the game is played this way but if you want the money this is how it's gotten. At least for those that rely on free search engine traffic.
Dear Griz
I am trying to get into Content Connect but they seem to be closed. Any solutions?
I badly need high quality backlinks to my sites as they seem to be sliding down the SERPS. One site I have went from 50 uniques to 5 so it is really worrying.
Griz,
I didn't say a "hyped up" sales page but a better one - one that looks cleaner and a little more professional looking (type is too small).
Well, throw that out if you must but I guarantee a better ebook cover is needed. Ebook covers are relatively cheap and that one just doesn't cut it IMO.
Say what you will but appearances do count and they do count for beginners who have a choice of buying this ebook or another one that looks great on the outside and is crap on the inside. It is competing with all the other ebooks with great covers and newbies have to make decisions based on something and presentation is all they have to go by. That is Advertising 101.
I was given a free copy and want to promote it but I have to make decisions on what to promote and right now I just don't see people buying it with the current presentation.
All I can say that this is a truly great ebook but I would never buy it given the current sales page and book cover if I were a newbie. It is a diamond in the rough but how are people supposed to know that?
A good link network is what i need. right now i am up to creating my own farm house. :)
Janet's book is really informative for anyone starting in making money online.
Griz you should do an exclusive review of it.
Thanks for the heads up, Griz....makes me wonder a bit about the idea of building up such a network myself. I wonder how many separate sites it would take to make a network that can hold 30 members like this. The earnings are almost $4,000 per month from such a network, just in membership fees to the network. Not bad. Of course you could probably monetize them in other ways as well.
Interesting stuff....
Hey Grizzly
I sent you two emails with "niche support" in subject as you suggested in a comment last month but nothing happened so fare, I guess you have tons of emails first so I waited till now but I’m starting to believe that the emails got lost. Should I email you again?
I’m pretty much where Dino is at; I need resources to strengthen my sites but can’t cover the expenses of places like you mentioned in this post. Clickbank checks is a nightmare to exchanges with banks in Sweden so I collect when the amount reach 500 dollars witch is every 2-3 months. I’m a member of CC but nothing happens there at the moment. I’m posting articles to directories like a psychopath but changes in ranking come slow.
If I were to sign up with one of the resources you discussed at "make money online for beginners" over the years (at lest for a month,) witch one would you recommend?
Grizz,
This sounds like pure gold. Unfortunately with the price of gold these days this is way out of my league.
I on more of a PB&J budget.
Perhaps next time around!
Hey Grizz
Could you give me a rough idea of how big a stable of sites I should own and what kind of monthly income I should be generating before using something like this becomes worthwhile?
Skinny Ninja, I actually run this network that Griz posted on. It has taken months of planning and programming.
One thing I want those who do join to know is that these sites are not monetized with anything. The idea is to keep them as normal looking as possible. That means no blogroll links either.
This network has and is continuing to be built to last and benefit everyone using it. We do not build for the short term, and make efforts to make changes where needed to keep it strong.
Yep, right Tracey - there is only one of me :) (and you know who I am). Thanks for the extra link too - I was just in a hurry to get numero uno position. :)
I saw DailyBlogTips start up something like this and it filled up before I was able to respond at 7pm at night. 1stLink is a decent favorite exchange that I think is still accepting free members.
sounds like a good strategy. I am gonna look into this for my website. Whatever helps with my link building is a-ok in my book. I'll check into it see if its worth the time. Thanks for the post.
I am part of a Backlinking Program where I get pr2 to pr10 Sites to work my links with. Been doing it for 7 months now and it has worked wonders for my progress and my Rankings on the Serps. And btw, it is $5 a month. :)
So I will gladly past on this !!
Thanks but no thanks
To Griz or Anyone That Might Know,
I've read many times that links with your keyword in posts is the best link to get. I have to ask, will oneway PR4-PR5 links in a blogroll from a related site make a big difference in the serps? Or would those links have to age a certain number of months before you start to see a real change. I know it also depends on how many links those sites give out in the blogroll.
Griz, I'm always a bit worried about network backlink strategies that are this expensive in a blog for beginners. This can be perilous for those not knowing what they're doing.
My advice is that anyone making under roughly $500 a month in profits (not revenue) should avoid this for now and use traditional strategies to keep learning.
Just my 2 cents.
- Don
I agree totally , Don !!
Lonnie,
I'm guessing you are using Angela's backlinks if you paying $5 a month and while I do agree that they've been great in the past, I don't think that it's a good long term solution.
I have used them too (and Pauls) but lately I'm becoming more concerned about their use (or overuse). Thousands of people get these same links and many more get them illegally from bh forums. Do you think Google hasn't noticed this?
I've even seen that they don't have the same impact in the serps as they used to.
I'm not saying to give them up completely, but you need to be aware that this is a short term solution at best (if indeed they work as well anymore).
I'm finding that there are other much less time consuming ways that give me much more 'bang' for my buck that I'll be concentrating my efforts on in the future.
Just my opinion.
Tracey :)
Lonnie what is the program you use?
Too many networks to join and too little time to write articles. :(
I'm having a hard time just keeping up with the 50 sites on TKA.
But definitely a great opportunity at a reasonable price.

Hi all,
did anyone contact Griz? What was the outcome?
I just started a new blog ( http://www.tipsonconsulting.com ) and I was wondering were this service may help now.
Thanks,
Chris
Hi Sam,
Janet has a post in response to your concerns...

Hey Grizz, I see you're scaring off the competition on the greens too!
Grizzly Golfing Skills
Dencha,
Lol. I had that sent to me before but had forgot about it. I laughed pretty hard and wanted to use it but never asked for permission. Thanks.
This is for Janet who is probably already on a plane (I can't comment on her blog anonymously like I can here)
Have a good trip Janet. I had no idea you were only trying to sell to a certain type of person. Not my type of business model but to each his (or her) own. The book won't bomb (its too good for that), it just won't do as well as it should but if you are OK with that, then that's cool. Good luck with your nomadic adventure.
The Grizzly Ranch...
I did not know you already had your own golf course :O
Thanks for this post you are of great help every time I least expect it!
