You are bascially advocating taking some of your Tier 2 pages and making them Tier 3 pages (or possible Tier 4 pages). This will limit the amount of spidering of your content by some search engines. Even if the search engine deep spiders, it still may be some time until it gets down to those Tier 3/4 pages. If some of your content doesn't get indexed it won't matter, as these may not be the keywords to drive the traffic towards your site anyways. Clearly there's critical content in some those Tier 2 pages that I wouldn't want at a Tier 3 page, especially if it would get a site a hit by someone searching some less used keywords. I'm not disagreeing with your suggestion; just saying proceed with caution on how doing so will affect your ranking in a search engine.

One compliment we get over and over is the simplicity of our website compared to others. But just like everyone else I want to tell the customer as much as I can. I will keep this in mind as I grow my site. BJ Thanks for the advice!!! One compliment we get over and over is the simplicity of our website compared to others.
