I think Matt Cutts actually answered this question a while back, the bad links just get ignored and don’t contribute to you increasing in the SERPs. Same as bad neighbourboods.. the links from them get ignored, and some of those sites disappear from the SERPs.
My thinking is.. with new links. It has to look like normal human behaviour.
If 50K links appeared to point to your site, I think Google checks each of those 50K site links, to see what their standing in the SERPs are, and gives them a link value.
And of those 50K links, Google probably expects
w% to be from similar sites
x% to be from social media
y% from news websites
z% from directories
b% rss feeds
a% other sites
I guess I am saying, if all your links cam from social media sites – it doesn’t look correct. You’d expect for normal link passing around on the internet, to come from different types of sites.
