[quote]General google page ranking is based on incoming links . Link farms exploit the algorithm, so google downgrade sites with over 100 links.[/quote]
You need to read http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=40349&ctx=related Google looks at 100 aspects of a page - and links and link anchor text are part of the algorithm. But stating that sites with over 100 inbound links are 'downgraded' - that's clearly just not true. Check how many links there are to MSN; Ebay; w3C.org; Adobe Acrobat reader download; Google itself etc. The rate at which you acquire links is important - but nowhere has Google ever said that sites with over 100 links are 'downgraded'... FWIW - I'm seeing some very well coded pages ranking really well in Google's accessible search.
