A short update and practical guidance for this thread: ’s post correctly identifies the historical “wheel/circle” idea, and several replies here (for example and ) reflect the old-school thinking that those networks were a fast way to rank. That thinking is now risky: Google treats networks built to manipulate links as link spam / link schemes and can algorithmically devalue or manually penalize sites that use them. Google: Link spam policy. ()

Technically the terms overlap but differ in scale: a “link wheel” (or circle) is usually a small, structured set of properties that interlink and point to a target; a “link farm” is a broader clique of sites created solely to trade links. Both are forms of manipulative linking and both carry risk today. See concise glossaries and the link-farm definition for background. (seo-theory.com)

If this thread reflects work you’ve already done, these steps are the practical next moves:

  • Stop expanding the network immediately.
  • In Google Search Console check the Manual Actions report and the Links report (export your inbound links).
  • Try to remove suspicious links by contacting webmasters.
  • If removal fails, prepare a disavow list and upload it in Search Console.
  • If you have a manual action, fix everything, document your removals, then request review.

See Google’s guidance on how to disavow links and how manual actions / removals work. ()

Long-term: stop building fabricated networks and invest the same time in content that earns editorial links, outreach/PR, and honest partnerships. Also mark paid or sponsored placements with rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow" where appropriate — Google has reinforced link-qualification and anti‑spam measures in recent updates. Google: link spam update & qualifying links. (developers.google.com)

For : link farming is related but generally larger and cruder; both approaches are considered “link schemes” by search engines today and should be avoided.

Firstly,It is not link while.It is called Link wheel.I have first time heard the term link cirlce but the name suggest it might be another name of link-wheel.

link wheel and link circle is one of the most powerful and most advanced methods for achieving a higher ranking. It is process in which you build a dozen or so new blogs/web pages using web 2.0 properties such as squidoo, blogger, hubpages and etc, all on the same topic as your main blog or website.

A link circle (or link wheel) is where site A links to site B and site B links to site C and site C links to site D and site D links back to site A. There can be an infinite number of links in the wheel. The idea is to have enough sites in the wheel as to trick Google into never figuring out that it is just a big link swap, since Google devalues links that are part of link exchanges or link swaps.

hi,
Yes link circle means that the back links which are made in circle. The websites are connected to each other in a circle way.

Link Wheel & Link Circle is same thing. In both process we make backlinks for your website.

I think Link wheel and link circle both are similar terms but yet there is minor different. As in link circle we link to only some definite site and this linking process is going on to each other site circularly.

Member Avatar for Dani

Huh??? I think they are the same thing.

Member Avatar for tech.biztech

Hmm, Both thing are same but I have shared it in easy words so every person know it in simple way.

Yes link circle means that the back links which are made in cirlce.. Like on website is linking to next one and next one is linking to next one... and then last back link will link to first one.. This is what make the circle.. and this method is called circle back links.

I think Link circle and link wheel are same. We can get more and more link in a circle way.

If link wheel or link circle are the same things then what is Link farming? isn't it the same?
