There are tons of brokers out there selling PR5 text links for example. What does it mean and what ROI can I expect? Will it effect my SERPs or my PR?

If, however, a webmaster chooses to buy or sell links for the purpose of manipulating search engine rankings, we reserve the right to protect the quality of our index. Buying or selling links that pass PageRank violates our webmaster guidelines. Such links can hurt relevance by causing:
- Inaccuracies: False popularity and links that are not fundamentally based on merit, relevance, or authority
- Inequities: Unfair advantage in our organic search results to websites with the biggest pocketbooks
In order to stay within Google's quality guidelines, paid links should be disclosed through a rel="nofollow" or other techniques such as doing a redirect through a page which is robots.txt'ed out.

Good luck on your text-link-buying endeavor... Buying links is one way that you can try to increase your PageRank and your SERPs.
There are a number of things that I would consider before buying any links from a broker; where the links are placed, are they posted in such a manner that they look like paid ads (in a box, sidebar, footer), are all of the links related, how many links will there be, how long of a term are the other links there for, what's the history of the page where the link will be placed, how transient are the links on the page, etc.
Another thing to keep in mind is that is has been mentioned in the past that just because a page has PR, it doesn't necessarily mean that it will also pass PageRank.
There are usually too many negatives for me that I generally skip on the paid links and look for links from the better quality sites that you know will count in the search engines. It could affect both parties. A powerful link from a credible website can boost your ranking for a certain search terms. Just be careful with whom your going to buy your links. It must be related, do follow, and high PR. Anyway, best of luck! I agree it's not a very good idea to buy some links.Google doesn't like it at all. You can be banned for this. If you think that they are selling for increasing your ROI in direct reference then you are compltely wrong.
These links are sold to increase your link popularity only and not any traffic from their sites.
They can be effective but according to Google, these are illegal activities and you can be banned if found guilty in performing such deals.

Good luck on your text-link-buying endeavor... So not good to buy text link?? how about with blogroll?? tq a link is only ever as good as the site it's on, so its impossible to answer this without saying buying links where?
if you're willing to take the risks involved I would look to source your own links and communicate with them via (non-gmail) email or phone.
that way you can be sure of the quality of sites / links, as buying a link on a site Google has devalued for link sales wont help you at all. Quote: Originally Posted by W4nzz So not good to buy text link?? how about with blogroll?? tq Well, on the second thought, if buying text link is
