Re: Link Selling - Unethical or Just Unwise?
I doubt it's unethical to sell links as plenty of people sell links to drive traffic.....why I pay Google for this service.....
What is unethical is buying links to boost PageRank.
There is a big difference between the two noted above. But then you have to determine if Google is the arbiter of all things ethical.
There are Ethical Society's.... and I do not see Google as a member there... so I think it is hard for them to determine what the ethics of other companies are.
The puppetmeister has even gone to say that buying a listing in a Paid Directory such as Yahoo is fine, since paid directories weed out spam.
The link from the Yahoo Directory, would seem to pass Page Rank and ergo do exactly what Google the greatest propaganda machine ever run, has made something forbidden....or is it???
Overheard in Google Board Meeting
"Oh my... what a tangled web we weave.... when at first we try to deceive".
