"Link farms" - What they are & Why You Need To Avoid Them At All Costs.
Word of caution: Do not get involved with "Link Farms."
Link Farms, according to Wikipedia, are "a collection of intentionally-
interlinked pages, designed to fool search engines that use Page Rank or
a similar algorithm, into believing that the pages are more important
than they really are. Google is known to employ a link farm detection
algorithm, which penalizes those pages determined to be a link farm."
There's lots of ways to virtually shoot yourself in the foot online without irritating Google, so why add it to the list?
Backlinks are great ways to get visitors to your website. That old chestnut, "Build it and they will come!" has no meaning in the virtual world of Internet Marketing.
If no one knows you're there and what you're doing, they will NEVER find you.
