A link farm is any group of websites that all hyperlink to every other site in the group. ... Although some link farms can be created by hand, most are created through automated programs and services. A link farm is a form of spamming the index of a web search engine (sometimes called spamdexing).

Generally, a link farm is a website (or a group of websites) that is designed to increase the link popularity of any other site by increasing the number of incoming links. You can also say it "Black Hat SEO" becuase content on the website to each other is not related and these are easily detected by search engines.

Link farming is considered a "black hat" method of search engine optimization (SEO) because the content on the web sites linking to each other is often not related, not created by a human (it can be created using programs or services) and is often of a very low quality. Search engines can detect link farms easily and they shouldn't be seen as a legitimate long-term search optimization strategy.

Link farming is a questionable search engine optimization (SEO) tactic in which a website enters a relationship of reciprocal linking with another site or pays a provider for a large number of inbound links. Because many search engines use inbound links as a factor in determining a website's page rank, websites use link farming to boost their rankings in search engine results.

A link farm is a website or a group of websites created only for the purpose of increasing the link popularity of another site by increasing the number of incoming links. But this is not considered a good method in SEO (Black Hat  trick) because 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. So it's better not to use this method for business sites who are well established.
