True, SEO is 99% smoke and mirrors. When it works it's fantastic. Otherwise... yeah. Meh.
I've been working with a client who had one of his sites in a network of 17 properties that got the google smackdown. He'd interlinked it so much that 97% of his links came from his own network. One site in the network got great rankings, one got banned, the rest have all fallen way down. With that experience under my hat I'd say sexywebteacher is pretty close to the money.
"Diversify your links" is a bit of jargon that simply means make sure you spread yourself around and don't put all your eggs in one basket. Get links from everywhere, anywhere, just don't take them all from one place. Networks that only link within the network? Not so hot.
