After a tight and goalless first half, Blackpool settled the nerves after the re start with a Marc Beattie headed goal from a corner after 51 minutes.
Two more followed - from team captain Martin Baird (75mins) and Ryan Stayte (83) as the game gradually slipped away from Silsden.
Squires Gate FC lost 3-2 away at Runcorn Linnets - also in the Premier Division - which leaves then in 19th place with just 5 points from their first 9 games.
Both teams are away in FA Vase action next Saturday, with Squires Gate away at Armthorpe Welfare and AFC Blackpool away at Nostell Miners Welfare.
Assuming they are not involved in FA Vase replays, AFC Blackpool will be at home on Tuesday 18th September in NWCFL Premier Division action against Wigan Robin Park while Squires Gate will play host to Bacup Borough.
