Link Pyramid Explained


The Link Pyramid strategy is one of the most popular and known link development strategies. The link development method is part of the search engine optimization of a website, more exactly, part of the Off-Site optimization. Search engine optimization is an online marketing technique to promote and rank your website higher. The off-page direction of it is based on link development techniques, social media marketing and others. Basically, it is about every step outside the website.

How the Link Pyramid strategy works?
This strategy is a level based one. There are three layers of the pyramid. At the top of the pyramid is placed the website which needs to be promoted. It is also known as money site.
The first level consists of several (not a lot) of websites where is anchored a link to the money site. These websites usually have a pretty high PR. This is the main reason here need to be employed only a couple of websites instead of numerous of them. Most often, at the second level of the pyramid are used and done high PR blogs, such as Wordpress, Jcow, Elgg and others.

The second level consists of more links than the second one. The links here are pointing to the websites from the second level and not directly to the money site. This is why the PR of the websites used here doesn’t need to be as high as in the case of the previous layer. All the links created here are meant to strengthen the work done in the second step. Most often here are used the social directories in order to build links.

The third level is about fortifying the third one. A lot more links are built here. These ones are created, pointing to all the links from the third level. Since this is the last step, it consists of numerous websites with an average PR. The fourth layer is about quantity, unlike the second level, which is all about quality. The links done here are designed to strengthen the links from the third level. Usually, at this layer, are employed and used various blog comments for posting links. All the links from the second and third step are meant for the search engines bots in order to push the money site.

What results can be seen?
Since this is a pyramid scheme, the money site is always protected. Therefore, the Link Pyramid strategy can bring only good results when done properly. The level strategy such as this one is among the most suitable SEO strategies, especially because it cannot harm the money site; only get it in higher rankings and winning more visibility for it. The Link Pyramid method is definitely one of the most safe and lucrative link development strategies.

Between: A tight networking app designed for couples

 

 

If ever in doubt about your guy’s commitment to a relationship, ask him if he would commit to an app. A growing number of young couples in Asia are sharing special moments in the privacy of Between, a tight networking app that links only two people.

In an age of social media overload where tweets, Instagram and Facebook postings can invite unwanted attention from parents and employers, Between feels like a digital safe haven that blocks outside noise and keeps memories just for two.

Created by Seoul-based startup Value Creators & Company, Between hit 5 million downloads in two years. About two thirds of the users are in South Korea with their average age in the mid-20s. Between has attracted more than half a million users in Japan and is expanding in Thailand and Singapore. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese and American couples have also joined.

Value Creators CEO Park Jaeuk said social media fatigue is the main driver behind Between. As more people join Facebook, Twitter, and chat-based services such as Line and Kakao Talk, Between sees a bigger chance to grow its user numbers.

How it works
You install Between on your Apple or Android device and provide the mobile number of the person you want to use the app with. Most use the app, which is free, with someone they are romantically involved with, though that’s not required. Once the request is accepted, the two can use instant messaging, keep journals, exchange voice messages, post pictures and leave comments. Between also offers a blog-like space where the two users can create photo albums and long notes.

 Pictures can be tagged to a “Memory Box,” which arranges them in a stream of tiles. Reminders for anniversaries, birthdays or any special days such as the day the couple first met can be set in the app’s calendar. The content created is private to the two users and the app can be password protected.
