Subverting Link Farms

    Hey All,

    I wanted to talk about the countless amount of link farms that use adwords + adsense to generate revenue from an individual's adwords advertising. I am not sure how everyone else feels about link farming but I personally think it's dishonest and misleading to the users visiting the sites. Also, it racks up a hefty bill for the adwords customers spending time and money to carefully put together a solid adwords campaign only for it to be misused by these link farms for nonquality clicks.

    What I propose if it is not already out there is we compile a list of all of the link farms based and can even classify based on category so that we can exclude these lists from where our sites are being advertised. I already have a list of about 10 sites I hand picked while tailing my access_logs but I want to have a gigantic list to filter through all the nonsense and spend my marketing dollars wisely so I can expand my business.

    If anyone else thinks this is a good idea then let me know... Otherwise I will begin compiling my own private list.

    Regards,
