When purchasing links, obviously you do not want to purchase too fast. Do you think that search engines look at entire domains or individual pages on a domain when looking to see if yo are buying links?
Thanks

They look at links; millions at a time.
And Google does not like paid links.

If you are going to purchase links do not do it for your main site, as Google will be filtering paid links in the near future according to all rumors and semi official statements

because if google decides that they REALLY dont like and bans the site you are buying paid links for, it wont be the main site. If you are going to use grey area SEO techniques save it for ancillary sites, always protect the main site with only best SEO practices.

Ah, well if that's your advice, don't you think you should warn people not to interlink?
If people go seeking a ban on their ancillary sites, they need to reduce the risk of 'bad neighborhood' problems.
No sense in committing SEO suicide on ALL your sites

Im not sure I follow you. Reciprocal linking with quality relevant sites will not hurt you.
What do you mean by "interlink"
I would warn against any questionable techniques for you MAIN business site.

I'd warn against stupid techniques for ALL sites.
But my point here is that while "Reciprocal linking with quality relevant sites will not hurt you", reciprocal linking with a sites that you've chosen to knacker, *will* hurt you. Possibly fatally.
Once you've played your "questionable techniques" game on the ancillary site, it ceases to be a quality site, and linking to it then becomes 'questionable'.
And you said "I would warn against any questionable techniques for you MAIN business site."

"chosen to knacker" ???
And I wouldn't consider all grey area SEO to be "Stupid" just a bit risky. Which is why I go back to my original statement of not doing it on the main site. You can enjoy SOME temporary gains from these technique, why not give it a go? As long as your main site is protected, again my original point, I think its fairly reasonable.

Maybe; we'll agree to differ on that.
But should you choose that road, interlinking a now 'risky' site with the bread winning site would not be wise.
Unless you do want to take risks with that, too?

i dont think google thinks bad of all paid links or just doesn't give scores to paid links as before, but for sure sites wont get banned fom getting paid links from for example some legit directories , google even encourages people to get listed there such as yahoo and business.com directory.

I think there's nothing wrong in purchasing links if it's done for the sake of traffic and not for ranking and PR manipulation.

So you'll buy 'nofollow' links?
You need to read up a little on google's paid link policy; but there's no need for panic; it's link sellers who have most to fear, at the moment.

why not buy a nofollow link if it generates targeted traffic?

Why not indeed; a perfectly acceptable, risk free advertisement.
