Anchor text distribution balance
Firstly, we need to get and gather up your keywords that you're targeting and proper used of anchot text ratio.
tier 1 Anchor text (tier 1 links are the backlinks that are pointing to your Google map URL)
Brand - [60%] you should use 60% of anchor text as your brand name or business name. If your site's brand/business name is hybridtraffic then you should used 60% as anchor text. Be sure to add variations such as space, using of capital letters, small letters, brand name + the full URL.
Example: HybridTraffic, hybrid traffic, Hybridtraffic, hybrid Traffic, hybridtraffic https://www.hybridtraffic.net
Generic - [20%] Generic keywords is very important these days. You will start using generic keywords and no word repeating. Meaning - once you used the word " click here" then you don't need to use that word again, but you can add more keyphrase such as "click here for more info" as long as they are not repeated words. There are lot's of generic keywords that you can use.
Example: visit site, official site, more info, check this, main site, check this out, info, etc.
Keywords Keyphrase - [20%] This tactics is where you will have inserted your primary keywords in a keyphrase. So, if you're ranking for the keywords "SEO strategy" then you should add a keyphrase not just " SEO strategy".
Example: the best seo strategy in 2018, how to build a good seo strategy, change your SEO strategy in 2018, 10 off-page SEO strategy that will boost your rankings etc.
So, you have your keywords ready for your tier 1 pointing to your map ( Not the embed, but the URL of the map)
Just a recap:
1.) 60% - Branding
2.) 20% - Generic Keywords
3.) 20% - Keyword Keyphrase
tier 2 Anchor text ( Tier 2 links are backlinks that are pointing to your Tier 1 links) This is optional but we will include it here as we used it for boost up or Tier 2 links if you want to gain more power in Tier 1 links. So these step will help you decide which anchor text should we used in Tier 2 links.
Naked links - [80%] most of the time you will have to spend naked links in boosting up your tier 1 properties. This tactics will gain more power of the page or link. If you target naked links it will gain 2x power than using any of the anchor text. Be sure to use naked links variation.
Example: http://www.hybridtraffic.net, hybridtraffic.net, www.hybridtraffic.net, https://hybridtraffic.
Primary keywords - [20%] Have you ever wonder that we did not used exact keywords in tier 1? It's because we are going to use it in tier 2 properties. In the old game primary keywords has been abused by SEO marketers and google is changing the game plan. Now, we can use and build stacks for primary keywords in tier 2 properties.
Example: SEO strategy, SEO strategy 2018.
Just a recap:
1.) 80% - Naked links
2.) 20% - Primary Keywords

4.) Super Web 2.0 - These are blogs or website minisites with custom sub-domain, try to create a highly quality accounts and good looking sites with these properties as they are already high established sites and good authority links. These properties are good in ranking low - medium keywords. You can find out more here 30 high active DA web 2.0 list and you can check web 2.0 tutorials.
5.) Domain Authority Stacking - The best and effective tier 1 backlinks for ranking GMB in google and map. It is where you will have to stack high DA blogs by combining PBN, Web 2.0 blogs, and some boost up. If you want to know more about DA's check it here.

Tier 2 links
1.) PBN - Still we are going to use PBN links as our tier 2 properties, there are services that offer this in fiverr or link linkauthority. But for me, it's good that you just have to order in bulk like in fiverr or konker. There are lot's of services that offers PBN bulk post and you can use it to your tier 1 properties. You can add your guest post, PBN and super web 2.0 you just need to ask the owner or the services if they can post 3 links. We also provide PBN services posting here in hybrid traffic.
2.) High PA web 2.0 - If you have an old web 2.0 or expired web 2.0, then you can create a post to fully gain more juices in your tier 1 backlinks. High PA web 2.0 are already given good authority which is a good value for tier 2 links. You can get this services still in fiverr or in Rankwyz ( they offer this but it's too expensive ). We also offer high PA posting for private clients.
3.) SEO - auto pilot - If you don't know SEO auto pilot, they are the new and future SEO link building software that is good for tier 2 links and contextual backlinks. We've been using this tool for almost 2 years. It's a good diversion tactics for anchor text distribution, good reports, good indexing links, good campaign. You just have to have a good integration tools to make them work such as good proxies, captcha, article spinner, article creator etc. They are like GSA mini version. But they are more focus on high authority links. We also do services for SEO auto pilot to make it work well.
4.) Syndwire - It's a social syndication tool, this will help all your tier 1 properties to be indexed and good backlinks for a starter. You will still need to add accounts and campaign in order to post. So far, it is a good tool for tier 2 boost up. You can check syndwire review here.
