Are web 2.0 properties, link wheels, link pyramids and article submission still relevant in modern day SEO.

Artificial link building like 'link wheels, link pyramids' are already considered as black hat techniques so I won't suggest to adopt such link building techniques. Article submission is still ok for me.

They are still relevant but avoid using your money keywords and focus more on your brand name. Also, don't use an obvious pattern for the link pyramids and link wheels.

The recent Google updates hit on over optimization on keywords, it didn't affect any type of link building strategies, so go ahead and use them.

Many traditional SEO strategies are still relevant, what you ought to change is how you used to do them, instead of posting one article to a hundred article directories, you need now to only post one unique article per article directories.

I have noticed much about Modern SEO nowadays involve on keyword diversity, unique content, social media marketing, guest posts, as well as theme links. So it is wise to stay away from link wheels and link pyramids for a while.

Any form of bulk, mass SEO, promotion, linking is in my oppinion dangerous for your site. Google is getting "clever" and constantly improved to recognise tries to infuence page ranking.

In this days the relevant is only web2.0 which is currently working for creating backlinks
