I would like to create a link exchange with my clients' websites which is not reciprocal but A links to B, B links to C, and C links to A for higher SEO benefit.
If I add an article or a link page to each site obviously it would need to be crawled. Is there a way to discourage it popping up on SERP? Should this even be a concern, assuming it's optimized for completely different keywords than regular pages of the owner's site?
