    1st tier links are high quality and point straight to your main site e.g. Web 2.0, Ezine etc. The function of 2nd tier links is to strengthen your 1st tier links e.g. using social bookmarks, forum profile, blog comments etc.

    The overall idea is that it forms a pyramid structure with your main site at the top!

    First tier are the backlinks pointing to your site and 2nd tier are the backlinks to your backlinks. The purpose of the 2nd tier links is to pass link juice to your website through 1st tier backlinks. Moreover thay also play an important role in getting your 1st tier links indexed.

        1st tier links are high quality backlinks pointing to your money site and 2nd tier links are low quality links pointing to your 1st tier link.

    1st tier links are usually your high PR links example would be your google+ and your youtube video. second tier are the ones that links to your 1st tier. Money site <---- 1st tier <---- 2nd tier
