Cross-Domain Linking??

What is cross-domain linking??

Please xplain... :)

Cross domain linking means creating two similar (not identical)/ niche related websites and linking them with each other. Its two way linking. It being said that cross linking is not accepted by Google, but actually cross linking is ethical and accepted by Google, as long as linked websites are niche related and beneficial for the user.

I had read somewhere in the past that it comes under links farms and Google hates these ways to build links. plz provide link where you studied it.

Is this same as the cross site request forgery?

Here is the reference source,

I hope I was right with my point.

Cross linking is simply linking like normal except you control the links between sites and you want them to be relevant between each other, in other words: add value to the visitor of your website.
