What can you teach us about Backlink Farms?
I'm new to Backlink Farms and thought backlinks was the gold standard for improving visibility. What is the definition of "backlink farm" and do you have lists of companies doing these things? Please provide some examples of backlinking techniques that people use that makes it a "farming" technique. What backlinks will be acceptable to Google's algorithms without causing a negative effect? What difference does it make if you personally backlink, use the share buttons, a friend links your HP, or you hire someone to help you create links to your Hubs?
I find its a bit better to leave comments on other sites and leave a link back to mine. I've heard a lot of bad things about backlink farms with the rankings in search engines.
Backlink farm is bad since it filled with spammy links and google consider this Black Hat SEO. This can possibly hurt you more than benefit you.
Google's algorithms is a guarded secret and change from time to time. Knowing what is good for google is every Internet marketeer dream.
I suggest just do a little of everything RSS, tweet, social bookmarking, forum posting, directories, blog, profile & etc.
nothing wrong to use backlinks to raise visibility but do not make use of farms!

I know that there is a lot of backlink advice out there.I know there are a lot of places to get backlinks.But when do you reach the stage where it's appropriate to start paying for backlinks - I know at least some of the pro hubbers do (while others don't backlink at all.)I have several accounts...
