Link building through link wheel (also known as Link Pyramid or Link Prism) is an upgraded version of interlinking between a network of website pages. It's proven to be one of the best and most efficient link building strategy

While these types of schemes were used commonly years ago, PBNs are now considered a pure black hat tactic and should be avoided at all costs, as they can lead to a loss in rankings, or even a manual penalty. PBNs usually provide little to no long-term value to the websites they are linking to.

Hi,

Link Wheel or Link Pyramid is an effective link building technique. It does not come under black hat technique.

Both link wheel and link pyramid techniques can be considered black hat SEO techniques. These tactics involve creating a network of interconnected links to manipulate search engine rankings artificially. They are designed to deceive search engines and inflate the perceived popularity of a website. It's important to note that search engines typically penalize websites that engage in such practices, so it is generally recommended to focus on white hat techniques that prioritize quality content and organic growth.

Here's some more information on link wheel and link pyramid techniques:

1. Link Wheel: In a link wheel, multiple websites or webpages are interconnected in a circular pattern, with each website linking to another within the network. The purpose is to create a flow of link authority and manipulate search engine rankings. This technique involves creating several low-quality or spammy websites solely for the purpose of building links. Search engines like Google consider this an artificial manipulation of their algorithms.

2. Link Pyramid: A link pyramid is similar to a link wheel, but it has multiple tiers or levels of interconnected links. The idea is to create a pyramid-like structure, where the top tier consists of high-quality websites that link to the second tier, which then links to the third tier, and so on. The bottom tier often contains low-quality or spammy websites. Like the link wheel, this technique aims to manipulate search engine rankings by creating artificial link popularity.

Both of these techniques violate search engine guidelines, as they are focused on manipulating search engine algorithms rather than providing valuable content and building natural links. Search engines strive to deliver relevant and trustworthy results to users, so engaging in black hat techniques can lead to penalties or even a complete removal from search engine results pages (SERPs).
