Default Re: Sponsored Links v. Unpaid Search Results

One can understand your dilemma. I read a recent article by Scott Gardner ( The Battle of PPC vs. SEM at http://www.sitepronews.com/archives/2003/aug/1prt.html ,where what he says is in line with your experience, though contrary to Post's article.
