For someone to think they know SEO, they certainly messed themselves up on this one. That's just ridiculous. Well, I'm glad I'm not doing some sort of link exchange with anyone then. Almost did.

Lots of paid links - am I perhaps misinterpreting your representation of paid links? If you can look into that, I'll appreciate it - I'll go ahead and submit the report again Hi Matt,

When you said you were happy it was down – it was down at #26 but now back up to page 1 again. Lots of paid links – am I perhaps misinterpreting your representation of paid links?

It's just one of them things I guess, karma normally sorts things out. @Asia I totally feel the same, I keep trying to justify it to them all of the time saying things like Google will catch up to them, it is starting to get old though now.

But the big question is the one asked above - how to get quality links when an increasing number of authority sites now make their links nofollow or redirect links. This tends to push sites like wikipedia up the results at the expense of smaller equally relevant sites, often when they are not the best result. Lots of sites (including my own sometimes) now add nofollow even to relevant in-content links just in case they might be seen as 'paid links'. Ultimately, surely that will cause as much damage to the search results as people doing link exchanges?
