Accidentally built a 500-site SEO mesh network and got 3k visits in 14 days

Major red flags - avoid this service.

"Accidentally" - nobody accidentally builds a 500 site private network. This is a lie.

The "1M AI citations" figure comes from Bing Webmaster Tools, whose citation counting is loose and unverified, and citations are not traffic, leads or revenue. Lie.

"Google trusts .dev and .app more" overstates reality – Google has said repeatedly that generic TLDs (top-level domains) carry no ranking advantage, the HTTPS-by-default point is real but marginal. Lie.

"Exact-match domains rank 30–60% faster" has no source and reads as invented, Google's 2012 EMD (exact-match domain) update specifically reduced that effect. Lie.

The audit scores (95–100/100) come from their own tools auditing their own sites, so it is self-graded marking. Lie.

Calling it "a mesh, not a PBN" is a semantic defence. From Google's side, 1,500 templated sites mass-generated by AI and PowerShell scripts is close to the definition of scaled content abuse and site reputation abuse, the exact behaviour the March 2024 spam update was built to catch.

One of your screenshots shows 2.8k users, wonderful, but then in the corner this is shown to be 1.2 sessions from direct, and very little from anywhere else, including only 19 sessions from Organic search. So the SEO power of the domain is negligible, and the Direct traffic is likely unfiltered AI crawler bots.

This is outdated blackhat SEO that will get any legitimate site into manual action trouble with Google. The only thing you've done is engineer a mass network quicker than previously possible because of AI slop website generators.

You are everything that people hate about the internet.
