Best Way To Use FCS Networker For Tier1 & Teir2
I'm trying to rank a local client for a landscaping company around a major city . So City+landscaping is the keyword that I'm ranking for. I'm not trying to rank in the 6 pack for google maps. I'm wanting to rank his site on the first page for his local city for landscaping.
I would say it's a medium competition keyword with a lot of the 1st page being angieslist, yellowpages, home advisor, bbb.org. Pretty strong authoritative sites but really not a whole lot of links going to these local inner page. It's seems like the on page seo and just the strength of the domain is ranking it.
I have some questions using FCS networker
1. Tier1- I built 10 Web 2.0's using FCS networker with all anchor text being my url to the page.
2. Tier2- I built 100 Web 2.0's to tier1 using FCS networker with 10% anchor text being the city+landscaping
3. Tier3- I'm building 10 links a day for each verified url from tier2 (only building links to do follow of Tier2) using GSA with Blog comments, trackbacks, url shortners, pingback, referrers. Keyword at about 50% anchor text for the city+keyword .
My questions are:
1. Do I have enough Web 2.0's for my Tier1 and Tier2?
2. How many GSA links should I be using on Tier3? I think 10 day to each url is not enough. I'm only building 1000 total per day. I guess I see people say blast the crap out of Tier2, but does that mean just build 50k or more links a day. Let it run to you rank? I mean I guess you can blast these more since FCS Web2.0's can take it right?
All answers are welcome and appreciated

If you're no where to be seen for your target keywords, build more tier 1 EM links (keep in mind to continue to build generics/branded and naked urls to keep your ratios safe), when you start to appear on page 2-3 for your keywords, pause your tier 1 keyword campaigns and focus on building your tiers.
All of your sites should have a constant stream of generic/branded/naked urls being built to your site, continuously, what I normally do is set up a simple tiered campaign in SER with only brands/generics/naked urls and I leave this running indefinitely.
I would then use FCS/PBN to focus on building your LT / MK terms links and use these sources to tier them also, you're managing your link sources, using all the garbage for naked/branded/generics and then using your high quality link sources for your money keywords.
Anchor texts I use goes a little like this; Tier 1 = keyword you want to rank for, Tier 2 = Mixture of associated keywords and generics, mostly generics 70/30 split and Tier 3 = generics/naked urls.
Your main question here is how many links is enough.. well, I work in quite a competitive niche and I aim to create 100 inbound tier 2 links foreach tier 1 link, This takes a while to do especially when only using good quality web 2.0s to do it, most of the time my keyword anchor tier 1 links are in the thousands, 30,000 - 50,000 tier 1 links that I play with, although I am experimenting with better quality tier 1 links to see if I can achieve the same results with with only a fraction of tier 1 links.
You could definitely rank for a keyword with only having 1 EM tier 1 link and pumping a shedload of juice through that link, but as always, don't put all your eggs in 1 basket, spread the load, so instead of creating 1 EM tier 1 link and tiering this link up until it becomes a powerhouse and you rank where you want to rank, I would build 10 EM links and then build authority to all 10 links, this way, if a couple links drop out of the index, you won't plummet -50 positions. This is only an example to try to explain the theory when it comes to the amount of links you would need.
You will definitely be safe building more than 10 links a day at the tier 3 level, instead of letting SER take control of the link building limits, why not simply build your tiers as quickly as you can and then control the drip feeding of the links via an indexing service or method? controlling when a link gets crawled is just as effective as controlling when a link gets built without the need of bottlenecking yourself with your campaigns, I see no reason as to why you would get hit with a penalty if your ratios are all in order and you dont go overboard with EM terms.
Not all links I build are built using SER.
I have some older projects of mine which consist of over 6 million urls, processing these urls using BLM can be a bit of a pain
Keyword variations help you rank for your main term as well as provides more variation within your backlink profile which means you're able to create more EM tier 1s too.
Yes, 1 campaign only, with tiers pointing to it with various re-verifying settings etc to weed out the dead links.
30,000 - 50,000 EM anchors & variation tier 1 links combined, this changes depending on how many keywords I'm targeting, the more keywords, would equate to more links obviously.
Yes, good link sources would be PBNs and FCS and yes, I tier everything, even PBN posts.
I normally get a brand new domains authority (DA) to around 20-30 DA within a matter of a month or two, simply by tiering, though this doesn't matter a lot DA isn't even a metric you can take 100% into consideration, considering it isn't a google metric at all and can be very easily manipulated using the tiered strategy.
I did not intend to suggest or promote any indexing service, it is simply a strategy that can be used, you do what you think's best ofcourse.
Some tier 1 links just will not get indexed, could be the content, could be a lack of quality, or media input, so trying to get lets say, 10 / 10 indexed, is probably way more resourceful than simply building another 5 more links to compensate.

So yes, ser would definitely be able to rank for those keywords but you would definitely need to point at least a 3 tier structure to your tier 1s for them to carry any seo weight in order to rank.
Whereas, a PBN would automatically have seo benefit as soon as it's indexed because it should have authority already and and is a trusted source, instead of being spammed to high heaven.
It is quite risky to do all three tiers using SER, you are correct, if you wish to do it like this, then it is a numbers game, you need to build a substantial amount more links to compensate for any link loss you may occur, your own link sources would also help here.
What I currently do is use PBN and FCS intertwined for tier 1/2 links, then pump these with your SER links on the tier 3/4.
I use contextual sources mostly as these links, once indexed, would provide the most benefit, plus they have a better chance of staying within the index due to content, so for longevity purposes, contextuals are king.
In regards to how I actually build or set up my campaigns, I would need to answer this question at a later date as I dont have alot of time on my hands right now, I apologise.
