As you are probably well aware we run AR and LA so we run tests all the time on what works best
Now most of the people that are either complaining or moaning are doing things totally incorrect
Do not get me wrong spinning still works great, but it can very easily be overcooked and look unnatural which is easily detectable
Tons of people are still directly just linking everything back to their money sites, creating a couple of spun articles and then submitting them to every network possible AR, ALN, AMA, FBL, SEOLV etc etc
Even worse if they have 3 money sites that are promoting ALL 3 sites in one piece of content - Doing this again and again causing citation issues and leave footprints
I still do not understand why people are not being a little more clever with their link building
Look we know Google even today with their latest updates are targeting link building like this and they will continue to keep hitting and hitting it
What we have been doing more and more lately and which works similar if not better then always directly linking is just doing a lot more tiered linking
But instead of having loads of unnatural links pointing back to our site we instead have maybe 5-10 links pointing back to our site which pass the same amount of power. The steps we have followed are as follows
1) Create one good piece of content on a high authority site which links back to your money site - You can do this with Guest Blogging, myblogguest.com is not bad or just approaching people manually (Alot more work involved with that) - You can use BMR or LA or you can buy yourself a high PR site which contains only a few posts and make it look proper genuine.
2) Once you have created that piece of content, you then need to start passing PR to it so it effectively flows from the post to your money site. Now this can be done with spinning networks coming into play ALN, AR, FBL, SEOLV, etc etc etc there are literally tons. Also chuck some of the low end links in there as well. profiles, blog comments etc
3) Once you have done this you then start again and keep on expanding it
Just think about how much cleaner your link profile will look after 6-12 months - With only clean, high authority sites linking back to you
By all means I think using spun networks to directly link back to your money site is still good but maybe not at the effectiveness it was a couple of years ago, as Google spot unnatural patterns a little better now - I would recommend still link directly to your money site with spinning networks but not 100% maybe 30-50%
The aim of the game is to get all the juice from the spinning networks but indirectly to create a so called blog network wheel
I know a lot of people are probably already doing this or something similar but this is for the 80% of webmasters that are still not
As an example a local dentist should not seriously have 20,000 direct links but instead a few hundred power links which work the same

The above (although a bit of a crap graph) shows how the flow works - Keep in mind this is just one level deep
You could make tier after tier for example linking spun articles to a authority site which then links to another authority site which in turn links back to your own site
