    ink bait is any content or feature, within a website, designed specifically to gain attention or encourage others to link to the website. Matt Cutts defines link bait as anything "interesting enough to catch people's attention". Link bait can be an extremely powerful form of marketing as it is viral in nature.

    Link Pyramid means level of link building. There are 5 levels of link building and in every level you have to do different link building like in 1st level you have to directory submission after that in next level you try different link building technique.

    A link pyramid is a structured form of link scheme using several tiers of links.
    Link pyramids aim at creating link juice for intermediary and first tier links. It is also a way to prevent sanctions for the money site which is only directly connected with "good quality" first tier backlinks.
    Link bait is content on your website that other sites link to because they want to, not because you ask them to.
    Whether it’s an evergreen blog post, a helpful eBook, or a timely video tutorial, the linkable asset comes in many forms

      For the record, they are different from each other. Link bait is anything created for the purpose of attracting links such as controversial articles, infographics, etc. A link pyramid is basically tiers of links in which the last tier has more links of lesser quality than the higher tiers.

    They couldn't be more different. Link pyramids are a form of forced SEO by creating thousands of awful links, then pointing those links to a different webpage, then linking from those webpages etc etc until eventually they all flow up to your website.

    Link bait is just a word given to anything that encourages people to link to your website. Usually this just refers to creating good, link worthy content.
