Nullsec Exploration and Anomaly Spawns

I'm considering doing exploration of nullsec via WHs. My only issue with this is that WHs that lead to nullsec are few and far between. Has anyone tried doing this? And often can one find the 7/10s-10/10 in nullsec relative to the 4/10-6/10s found in lowsec? Is it about the same or less?

And second, what are the spawning mechanics for new sigs? How often do they spawn?I know that before Odysey, Russian explorers use to have a huge advantage due to the DT spawning mechanics. How about now?

You could try to live in a wormhole that has a nullsec static and cycle this until you find a nice area to plex in. Trying to find the odd kspace hole that leads you to a nice null area is ... hard.

On the spawning question: i think it is generally accepted now that sites dont spawn at downtime (unless it involves natural despawn triggers). The current thinking is that when a site gets completed it will spawn 'somewhere' else.

I am not much of a null explorer, but my ventures there lead me to think that mostly the 10/10s (and 6/10s maybe) are trawled after, whereas i would say in lowsec it is both 5 and 6/10 with 4/10 being the odd one now after t3s can't enter anymore. Many people also hate 7 and 8/10s. So apart from having luck finding sites, you will probably also have to be quite vigilant to find that 10/10 and compete with the teams that specialize on those.

you could find 7/8 or maybe even 6,9,10/10, but the real problem is, if you would try to find something in sov systems, you'll be on intel channels and from that moment someone will be after you. You won't have time to do a plex even if you find it. in npc null the situation looks a bit better, but there is also competition, and npc null is not that big
