		<description>And one  thing I forgot to mention to all those smart asses that are mentioning that paying $10 000 for a PR7 link is to much... A PR7 link with good link juice might just be more valuable than any PR 8 link with  less link juice.... 

If paying $10 000 for a links gets your page on position 1 and in effect helps you get an increase in sales of several $100 000 then how can the value of the link be questioned ? 

Don't all you smart guys think that someone that pays so much does not know what u guys think u know ???? 

So much ignorance hurts..... Half of you guys are probably Indian search engine optimizers right ???</description>

		<description>I must agree with the author of this blog. And everyone with a little common sense will. Is it not simple for a company to start some program or develop some software to cover up link sales by selling memberships that include a link ? I have seen exactly the same thing happen with W3C. I did a post http://blog.thai-web.net/is-the-world-wide-web-consortium-w3c-selling-links/
on my findings, I did some seo on a clients website and when I analyzed the competitors links I noticed that W3C was giving this specific website a link of such strength that it was close to impossible for any competitor to beat unless also prepared to invest in a similar "membership". The membership with W3C costs roughly $6000 per year (depending on company income lol), and as a member this page was mentioned as a so called GOOD example of how to create a page that complies with the W3C web standards. This is nothing more than a hidden link selling technique. Small blogs get punished for removing the nofollow attribute of blog comments and the big companies can do as they please making huge sums of money selling their links !  These so called web authorities are loosing face and in my eyes they are not web authorities as they engage in practices where others get punished for much less. Once someone notices what they are doing they simply correct their doings and all is fine. If I start selling links I will get punished or will it be fine just to remove the links I have sold ? 

And when Matt agrees that EVERYONE sees links from an seo point of view then I must frankly ask you Matt from what other point of view can this be seen ????</description>

		<description>Interesting then that Microsoft appear to be selling PR6 links to their new free website customers for only the cost of signing up to their PPC scheme? :) 

&lt;a href="http://seoibiza.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;Microsoft selling PR6 links to free website customers?&lt;/a&gt; ??
