In-depth tiered link discussion

Hey guys, I wanted to get some advice and discuss some strategies for tiered links (especially for e-commerce sites). Especially in regards to RankerX and GSA.

I've been building links for years manually usually through asset creation (building out long-form posts, infographics, etc.) or by purchasing guest posts and link inserts. I've used a few PBN services in the past to build some links to my guest posts, but not at a scale where I could really see any major returns.

The client I'm working for right now has an e-commerce site that is doing really well but it's mainly built off brand recognition. It ranks alright for its target keywords but it could be doing MUCH better. Through my competitive analysis, I can see that the other sites I'm trying to outrank are using a pretty aggressive link building strat, so it's been hard to keep up.

What I want to discuss is: how viable is RankerX for building links to Tier 2/Tier 3? And what are your opinions on my current setup for my new link campaign?

Also keen to note that the site gets 90% of its traffic from branded keywords. Would RankerX and GSA have the potential to kill the branded traffic as well?

Tier 1 - guest posts, links inserts, strong PBN links
^
Tier 2 - RankerX, GSA pushing Web 2.0, Directory, Press Release links
^
Tier 3 - Blog comments, forum comments, etc.

Indexification to index all links that are built

Now, I think this is a sound strategy. I would just like to pick some brains and see what potential landmines to avoid while I start this journey.

Thoughts? Any feedback greatly appreciated

At least, you know how to do it properly. Yes, it's quite a good strategy.
Hope you will succeed. But I would still add some improvements.
Tier 1 - fully agree
Tier 2 - web 2.0, press release, contextual and manual forum / crowd links. (web 2.0 have the lower index rate than forum links or so).
Tier 3 - GSA, RankerX.

I would not use automated tools for tier 1-2 at all. Just tier 3 for this kind of strategy..

My next question regarding this is product syndication. I've been told that you can use iFit integrations to syndicate your products across the web. One of my coworkers said we could use RankerX for this. Think it's a good idea? Lol. I told him it's probably gonna screw us long-term, but he kinda wants to run with it.
