K guys, trying my sorry ass at SEO and attempting building more long term properties instead of one page hit jobs. Been doing PPC for years but looking for a new challenge...

I bought an established site in the tune of $xx,xxx. It's a 4 year old domain, gets decent traffic, and the CPCs are high in Adsense. Giving it a complete redesign and adding new content as well as establishing a mailing list. I want to however improve traffic to this site via SEO. Doesn't have to be completely white hat, I don't mind shelling out some cash to blast it with links but I just want to be on the safe side since this site costs me a bit of quid to obtain (don't want to be in G's Shitbox the first month after purchasing this site).

I've been doing quite a bit of research on SEO and trying to wrap my head around sandboxing, Xrumer, Google Dances, linkbuilding in general, social bookmarking etc. Basically all the stuff I've ignored for years. I am hoping to obtain traffic in a more safe manner rather than blasting tens of thousands of links to my money site. I know people will say experiment and try it out, but as I already mentioned this is not a new (or cheap) site and therefore would like to prevent hitting the shitbox right away.

What I want to do is a link pyramid. I've read the thread http://www.wickedfire.com/traffic-content/113689-taking-new-site-top-30-day-case-study.html in detail and am thinking about loosely doing what Jbern did with some twists of my own.

Question for you SEO gurus. I am planning to buy the Red Virus SEO package and drip feed blasts. So the Red Virus points straight to the money site correct? And then afterwards, do I DFB the links detailed in the Red Virus report?

I'm also looking to purchase the Backlink Arena package as well. I assume once I receive the report for this I can DFB those links as well? I'm just trying to picture in my head how the "link pyramid" works and in Jbern's thread the image below is sort of the depiction of what I think needs to be done. Is this the direction I should be heading? Any help beforehand would be appreciated guys :)

Yea, thats kinda it, not much of a pyramid tho :p But you got the right idea.

Essentially, you use a random property, be it an article directory, blog post, parasite host, social bookmark to

1) Strengthen It

2) Filter high volume, spammy links (xrumer, scrapebox)

But overall, yah you got the right idea. Most people would probs consider this a link pyramid:

Its a terrible picture I drew in paint in five minutes. Its not a pyramid shape cause I'm too lazy to draw a good picture. But basically heres the hypothetical thing pyramid I'm showing, 1 squidoo point to MS (MoneySite), 1 hubpage pointing to MS. 1 wordpress/blogger each pointing to Squidoo, hubpage. Blogger, Wordpress each revieves say 25 bookmarks, each book mark recieves say Idk 2k xrumer links. And there we go, link pyramid. You can also blast other higher tier properties (ie, the squidoo with some xrumer, social bookmarks etc) except not hubpages theyre gay and will ban you. I don't bother with em anymore.

But I;ve used this quite recently on some peoples sites, and it works fairly good. Of course these are local, and easy niches. Haven't used them on my sites cause I'm lazy and shit.

If you want more examples, go to BST and look at a few vendors selling link pyramids, they should have diagrams that are better than mine

Tbh, xrumer links index so crappily, that those could just be pointed at your money site direct. Personally, I'd fill out the link profile with more blog comments rather than xrumer, and mix it so it's pointing both at the bookmarks and the money site.

You need links, Authority links to be precise... One way a Link becomes authority is when it has a lot of back links... Those back links also have back links, then the first property linking to you becomes more authority. That is the assumption behind Pyramids.
SO you are right about the Red virus Package. and then backlinking those.

Ask him if you can use more than 3 descriptions so that your links are more unique since these are descriptive links. Have the package customize for some extras. Goes a Long way.

When you do the back link arena, see if you can get more unique on all properties than being offered, for an additional fee. Back link those.

Create a few unique properties... Think a blog with 10 unique pages every page naturally linking to your money site. Backlink these blog with anything you have. Buy a "few" of the Manual Blog commenting services..

And that is a start,....

Btw, personally, if you're gonna go for a pyramid formation, I wouldn't point 12k profiles at all 1200 blog posts - with the way profiles are indexed, you'd be lucky if you have a single backlink showing in yahoo site explorer for each individual post. I don't know whether you have scrapebox, but if you do, use it to check which posts are indexed, and point the profiles at the ones that aren't.
 
You guys are awesome, thanks for sharing this info. I've given out too much rep already but I'll get around to reppin everyone that's posted so far. I think I understand the big picture here, so thanks for dumbing this down so much for me.

blogspotter summed it up quite well in his first paragraph. I have a few outsourced articles, so should I be creating a bunch of e.g. Squidoo lenses and posting these articles there linking it to my money site? Or is it better to buy something like the 200 unique blog package and have that one article spun 200 times and posted on 200 separate IPs?

If I create a Squidoo lens and blast it with 12K profiles for example, will that Squidoo lens "gain" PR? I always thought the 12K profiles are "shit links" and therefore wouldn't do much to boost a "shit article" site such as Squidoo? lol sorry for the retarded bunch of questions, but this thread has helped me out huge.
