Buying unrelated link is also can affect your PR on google but not as related links

Have you read the New Google Linking Scheme? Here is the link

. This is in violation of Google's webmaster guidelines and can negatively impact your site's ranking in search results. Examples of link schemes can include:

* Links intended to manipulate PageRank
* Links to web spammers or bad neighborhoods on the web
* Excessive reciprocal links or excessive link exchanging ("Link to me and
I'll link to you.")
* Buying or selling links that pass PageRank

The best way to get other sites to create relevant links to yours is to create unique, relevant content that can quickly gain popularity in the Internet community. The more useful content you have, the greater the chances someone else will find that content valuable to their readers and link to it. Before making any single decision, you should ask yourself the question: Is this going to be beneficial for my pageâ€™s visitors?

I've just had the same discussion on another forum, and i'll post what i've put there.

I've read this on a couple of forums , people complaining all of a sudden their site has dropped for certain keywords.

What I don't understand is how on earth the Google Bot can tell which links have been paid for and which haven't.

Let alone what links are adverts and which are not.

And at the end of the day, isn't ANY link an 'ADVERT' . your are advertising another webpage/resourse by having a link to the URL, that's what an anchor is.

You want a visitor to know about and have access to another page / resource, the mechanism for doing this with HTML is called an anchor.

If google has decided to devalue all adverts / paid links, then it would have to devalue every anchor it knows about, an anchor by its nature is an advert for something, and has either cost someone time or money for it being there, not just in placing it on the page, but the upkeep of the page, the webhosting for the page, etc.. etc..

Or does Google think webpages grow on trees ?

EVERY link is paid for, by someone , some how.

I'm thinking of buying links and i found some good deal in buy-sell section. But my concern is those website are not related to mine. I like to know, is it ok to have links from website with different theme and content? Will it do any good for my SERP?

For SERPs it is much more beneficial to have links from related websites and related pages. But links from unrelated websites can still have some benefit - although I wouldnt bother buying any
