Why do you say this? All our studies show the total opposite.
I obviously don't count (PAID) PPC Search Engine results. OK, for a nicely positioned site (read: first page) it is more, but in average I don't think I made a huge mistake.
Would you please provide more sources that point to other conclusions?

Here are some from my side:

etc.

Bear in mind that I am talking mainly about regular marketing ways , thus not some special linking or other tricks involved.
If someone have regular links with high PR (Google), I am still convinced that he will receive more visits through the links themself than from SE.
