As an extension of positive or almost positive diagrams and links, we introduce a notion of successively almost positive diagrams and links, and good successively almost positive diagrams and links. We review various properties of positive links or almost positive links, and explain how they can be extended to (good) successively almost positive links. Our investigation also leads to an improvement of known results of positive or almost positive links.
