I was checking on my Google Sitemap status and at the dashboard page notice a link titled : Report Paid Links

Going to that page I was presented with this form :

This certainly is a big deterrent to buying links - and provides another potential strategy :

You could always help Google and report your competition using Paid Links - therefore lowering their Page Rank as the BackLink would lose Page Rank too.

This is something I’ll explore more in the weeks to come.

  4. I was hoping that I could use some of your posts on my sites. Is that possible or a no-no? I’m new to blogging so thought I better ask here before I just copied stuff. Please let me know. Thanks!
