The link wheel is one such idea where several similar themed websites get together and create a circle of links. So website A links to website B which links to website C which then links back to website A. Link wheels can contain any number of websites from the three in this example upwards.

The idea is not new and originally existed in the 1990s as 'rings' for banner swapping. So you might have a 'health ring' where health related sites would swap banners and hence links but the focus then was simply to attract more traffic rather than to improve the ranking of the site.

Essentially link wheels attempt to try and fool the search engines by hiding reciprocal links via third party websites and the method has had some success.

However, as with all systems that are not 'genuine' search engine algorithms are already changing to spot these so in the long term spending money on link wheel programmes is not recommended.

Link wheels are one of many manipulative strategies used in internet marketing and search engine optimization to attempt to drive visitors to a websites. The target website resembles a hub of a wheel while the other websites form the wheel around it. Each of the outer websites is linked to one another in a circular pattern and each website offers a link to the target website resembling spokes in a wheel.

In another discussion thread about link wheel, I got it clearly that it is a sharing of links. As an example is a group of 5 sites that share their links with each other in a circular direction so the link swapping is not obvious. If Site A’s link is placed on Site B then Site B should not post on Site A so that it will not constitute link swapping. I think employing a link wheel is a nice way of getting backlinks.
