PressWhizz Explains Tiered Link Building Strategy

Web service PressWhizz has released a detailed explanation of the "tiered link building" strategy. This approach aims to enhance a website's authority for search engines by building links to existing backlinks, rather than solely focusing on direct links to the site.

The method involves supporting primary, high-quality links (Tier 1) pointing to a website with secondary (Tier 2) and tertiary (Tier 3) links. These supporting links are designed to improve the credibility, indexing speed, and overall effectiveness of the Tier 1 links in search engine rankings. PressWhizz notes that while this strategy isn't new, many SEO professionals implement it incorrectly or neglect it entirely.

The core principle is the layered nature of search engine link graphs, such as Google's. Instead of building direct, high-value "money site" links, the tiered strategy first strengthens these primary links. An example configuration shows a high-authority guest post (Tier 1) being reinforced by multiple web 2.0 posts, social media comments, and links from other relevant sites (Tier 2).

PressWhizz emphasizes that careful execution is crucial to mitigate risks. Over-optimized anchor text in Tier 1 links or misdirected supporting links can lead to negative outcomes. The company also offers services to build Tier 2 links that target existing Tier 1 placements.
