Link farming is an unfair practice which involves linking to unrelated websites for the purpose of ranking high in search engines.
Search engines such as Google consider link farming as a form of spam and have been implementing procedures to banish sites that participate in link farming.
For example- People link their websites with junk directories for the purpose of gaining more backlinks. These links are of no value because they are unrelated to each other.
