I would like to know whether the private network blog technique is available in SEO?

Short answer for : using a private blog network (PBN) specifically to manipulate rankings is a high-risk choice today. Google’s link‑spam work over the last few years has focused on detecting and nullifying manipulative link schemes, and manual actions still apply where human reviewers find guideline violations. (developers.google.com)

If a site already has links from a PBN, a practical, evidence‑based cleanup path is: export your link data (Search Console + a crawler), look for obvious patterns that signal manipulation, attempt polite removal with documented outreach, and only use Google’s Disavow tool as a last resort when removals fail. Keep a removal log and, if a manual action exists, follow the Manual Actions report steps and request review after fixes. (increv.co)

For long‑term, sustainable growth avoid networked link schemes and invest in tactics that earn editorial links: people‑first content, original research or data, digital PR/press outreach, resource pages and helpful guides, broken‑link or resource replacement outreach, and genuine partnerships. Those approaches align with Google’s “people‑first” guidance and scale without the same penalty risk. Also set up Search Console monitoring and run backlink audits periodically so issues are caught early. (developers.google.com)

A few practical cautions: document every removal request, don’t rush a disavow without evidence it’s needed, and expect recovery or algorithmic reprocessing to take weeks or months once fixes are submitted. If this is a business‑critical recovery, consider an experienced auditor to avoid accidental harm. ()

I guess this technique is against white hat SEO...
Google has been eliminating benefits to the sites that were practicing interlinking between Private Blog Networks. Typically only gray hat/black hat SEOs implement such techniques...
While many such blog networks are still alive, these sites don't really have any value unless they themselves have links from other sources.

I think Jolly She has been done a proper evaluation about it. I just want to include some other points to aware on PBN [If you want to use it]. 1. Whereas, PBN comes from expired domains, So find expired domains sincerely, Because it is difficult to find. 2. "Make sure the domains in your PBN have different IP addresses." It means host on separate C Block IP Addresses [4 “blocks” in IP Address AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD] . 3. Post Unique Content Regularly. 4. Don't make outbound links only for own site through atricle submission.

Absolutely I want to give a big credit to Doug Cunnington. Because he said much better about this.
