link farms 

link farms are web pages that either have many links to crap or links to other links to other links. Link farms are a passive form of spam, and usually contain a search phrase that you've entered into a search engine but have no actual content.

I did a search for "free games" and generated a ton of page hits to link farms.

link farmer 

Someone who creates web pages that are either full of links to junk, or full of links to other links to other links. Link farmers harvest popular search engine terms from search engines such as "free games" or "free ebooks" and include these search terms in their link farm. However, the page never has any actual content relevant to the search term. A link farmer is a more passive form of email spammer, but uses junk web pages instead of junk email.

Link farmers are an Internet lifeform that are just as bad as email spammers.

... carrying out research on behalf of the New York Times, set out to discover when the retailer had managed to hold top spot in the rankings for almost every product-related search term going. He discovered that taking one product area alone, dresses, he was able to find more than 2,000 sites that include a reference to a dress, with that reference being a text link to {company name removed}. The majority of the sites had nothing to do with dresses, had little content, and frankly were blatantly nothing but link farms.
