I agree 100%! It is frustrating seeing sites like that.

Thank you for stopping by!

I have noticed an explosuion of what are known as conduit sites. Basically sites with auto generated Amazon ads. These drive me nuts. There is a little more to SEO and good marketing than automated content.

Just my 2 cents.

Best of luck to you!

If you are sharing links with other websites that are in a different niche it is okay. You will be building more solid links by linking to sites that are in the same nich or sub-niche that you are in, but doing what you are saying is not going to hurt the reputation of your site. This is not going to be considered link farming.

Buying back links is not not an issue either, but I personally do back linking myself. You definitely need to check the page rank of the site that you would be buying links from. You do not want to buy back links from sites with little or no page rank (this will not do anything for your site).

I would suggest that you go out and start posting in blogs (like you are doing here), find forums that are specific to your niche and make yourself known in these forums. Most of them allows signatures where you can put a link to your site. The more you post, the more natural back links you will be building (free!!!). Make sure that you are not there to promote yourself. You need to make sure that you are actively participating in discussions and answering questions to help. Not only is this going to get you back links, but it will also help your reputation in your niche. If people see that you are willing to help and that you are giving good advise, they will be more likely to click on your signature links and see what you have going on.

I hope that this helps!

Thanks!

Also, what about buying back links from interested seller. Do you think it’s okay to buy these links?

Thanks.

I am glad that you found this post useful!

i) A Cookie-Cutter affiliate site are sites that are created with the same template, using nearly the same copy. People were pumping them out by the hundreds in an attempt to garner all the top spots in the SERPS (Search Engine Results Page). This has since been recognized and like I said, Google does not like them at all!

ii) a link farm is defined as a group of separate, highly interlinked websites for the purposes of inflating link popularity (or PR). Engaging in a link farm is a violation of the Terms Of Service of most search engines and could be grounds for banning.

I hope that this helps!
