Does Tiered Link Building Still Work in 2022?

google doesn't index URLs easily anymore. just a few methods work, and it is impossible to use these methods without leaving footprints.
 
3 level thing is something I saw in a matt digitty video, here it is:


i watched all of the video, but it doesnt mention anything about 3 levels deep, or anything similar, tell me if im wrong
 
Yes, I agree and wanted to stick with it. But again when I see the link profile and traffic of my competitors, my mind just blows.


this is where your problem is. you are using a third party tool to see the link profile of your competitors. They show all the backlinks and even the shitty ones. Most likely google is ignoring all those shitty backlinks. Your competitors are getting ranked by links that you are not seeing in those third party tools. what you are seeing is just noise.
 
Hello @lolseo

Besides the fact that tiered link building as been always useful at some point to guarantee indexing the backlinks you created or adquired, link juice being transmited from page to page never stopped to be considered.

So it's quite obvious that if your backlinks are getting backlinks too, those will be worth more that backlinks on the same scenario that don't get mentioned anywhere nor social signals.

A secured way to build a tiered link building campaign will be to ensure quality at least on TIER 1 and 2, keeping shitty backlinks (GSA, Scrapebox, etc) away from your MS.
 
has anyone else got any insight into this "3 levels deep" as mentioned above, & where do the levels start ?


i.e. does it include money site ?

if its money site
tier 1 unique content
tier 2 unique content
tier 3 gsa

is that 3 or 4 levels & is the bottom level going to cause problems for the top levels / tiers ?

the links (on tier 1) are pointing towards localized pages, not the main url, or any main terms, so the competion is less,
some search terms are small, some are very small, some are very very small.

Tier 3 backlinks aren't necessary if your tier 2 links are good quality. That's the point. If they have quality link profiles, those will pass the authority to your tier 1 links. It's as simple as that.

ok, i missed a bit out, i saw the bit about where various people are not overly enthusiastic about web 2.o's , but the links i am building are for small, or very small search terms, (i.e. local terms) so i am still using web 2.0's for the links im building.
i am not targeting main terms or anywhere near that, just the local terms for local pages.

but i have never heard anything about the
"3 levels deep" as mentioned above"

it is probably true, but there was nothing about it in that video.


another thing as well.
the amount of competition & size of market / amount of searches affects the type of links you can use (or the other way around) so web 2.0s are ok in my book,

but without anything underneath them, web 2.0s are orphan pages, so i was asking about the

"3 levels deep" as mentioned above"

Well, I got your point. Obviously if someone is hiding their quality links (in this case they must be their PBNs) from third party tools using ..htacsess or WAF, then its impossible to see the links.
 
yes, Tiered link works. First Tier 1 links from
  • High domain authority
  • Strong backlink profiles
  • Lots of traffic
  • Niche relevancy
Build tier 2 links from
  • Social media platforms
  • content indexes
  • Low DR from guest posts
  • some degree of relevance to First tier links
  • High quality PBNs
And Always clear and concise about content that are linking too.
 
Build quality Tier1 links, for tier 2 don't use GSA.


if not gsa for tier 2, what are you using to boost tier 1 ?

& when you say not gsa on tier 2, do you mean ok to use gsa on tier 3, or not at all ?
 
It all depends on the quality of the tears of links that you are building.

Content, uniqueness, as well as keyword filtering and structuring, are crucial in this game.

I want to help somebody with their web 2.0 and it turns out that the page, the web 2.0 page that they set up using my materials, actually outranked their target page.

You have to think hard about the keywords that you're using for your tier one, tier two and tier three pages.

Otherwise the issue that I raised above, may crop up.

Yes, that's a crucial point. Nobody will want their tier-1 to outrank their moneysite.

In that case, I think content on the tier-1 web 2.0s plays a huge role.

- intentionally On-page SEO error.
- Giving just a glimpse of the overall topic regarding the kw (though quality content)
- use of more nacked url to link money sites.
These are my thoughts and I am doing this way.
