    Hello..

    A Content Farm is a site that scrapes content from other sites and slaps ads against it.

    It scrapes it and usually has junk traffic. You will get penalized.

    Not sure if that is altogether true. Content farm is would be a web 2.0 property like hubpages, squidoo, ezinearticles etc. The reason why Google lowered the boom on them - supposedly a lot of people were leaving a lot of articles with minimum info w/ backlinks to their websites. I've noticed that articlebase has stepped up and not allowing any backlinks.

    Ehow was untouched because from what I know - I don't think they allow backlinks. I could be wrong on that - but I do know that EHow survived the latest algo rollout.

    Content farm means where you can submit duplicate and unrelated article in so-called sites. that creates bad effect on your keyword ranking and site's reputation.

    So ignore it and submit only on good site.
