What are pyramidal backlink scheme?
A pyramidal backlink scheme, also known as a link pyramid, is a strategy used in search engine optimization (SEO) to build backlinks to a website in a hierarchical structure resembling a pyramid. The goal is to increase the authority and ranking of the target website by creating a tiered network of backlinks that pass link juice and authority from one layer to another. The backlink pyramid schemes are easy to understand and implement, but they require more time and efforts. The pyramidal strategy allows you to send high-quality backlinks to your money site, strengthens those high-quality links, and improves the index rate of those backlinks. In this article, we will explain what exactly are pyramid backlink and the best way to create them.The structure of a pyramidal backlink scheme is pretty self-explanatory. It is a tiered structure, which looks like a pyramid, with the most backlinks in the bottom tier and the least amount of backlinks in the highest tier. A typical backlink pyramid will have three tiers or more. Links from third and second category serve as donors for the first category of links. It's like a giant funnel delivering all the power to your website! The concept is quite simple: resources from third category promotes pages from the second category and the resources from second category lead traffic to sites of the first category (your website). This strategy not only concentrate the pagerank power to your website, but also gives you a wide control over keywords and achor texts that you want to promote.
Tier 1:
Tier 1 will be your highest quality links. These links should be manually created on high trusted and authority websites, social media, blogs, articles, etc… These links will be pointing directly to your website so you want to make sure they are not spammy and have good diversity. Don't forget to watch for dofollow/nofollow ratio and act as natural as possible!
Tier 2:
The second-tier of links will be medium quality links. We suggest you to use well spun content related to your subject's niche and avoid duplicate content. Article directories, wiki link and various low PR backlinks are no trouble for 2nd tier. Your second-tier links will be pointing towards your first tier backlinks only so they have low outbound links (OBL). The goal of the second-tier links is to strengthen the quality of your tier 1 backlinks and improve the index rate of them. You don't want to split all your work and efforts with a bunch of other websites you don't even know, right? Now that this is said, you will want to send multiple nice quality tier 2 links to each of your tier 1 backlink. This means you will be creating 10 to 20 times more tier 2 than tier 1 1inks.
Tier 3:
This is where you can reduce your rigor. Tier 3 can have a bunch of low-quality links like auto approved blog comments, Pligg bookmarks, Wiki links, etc. All of the third tier backlinks will be pointing directly to each of your second-tier backlinks, giving them power, but mostly getting the attention of search engine's crawlers. The goal of tier 3 backlinks is to improve the index rate of your tier 2 backlinks. The majority of your tier 3 backlinks will probably not be indexed by Google so you should create enough that you will have at least a few backlinks indexed per tier 2 backlinks. You can send another 10 to 20 times more backlinks pointing to your tier 2 links that you created previously.
The idea behind a link pyramid is that the combined effect of multiple tiers of backlinks passing authority to each other ultimately boosts the authority and ranking of the target website. However, it's essential to note that while this strategy might have been effective in the past, search engines like Google have become increasingly sophisticated in detecting manipulative link schemes. What you must keep in mind is that the more you are on a close layer to your website, the more your should act as natural as possible. Remember that success takes time, concentration and rigor.
