I have to agree with Wess Freeman about the paid links. I have never seen paid links that work very well at all. Especially since the majority are scams like what happened to Wess.

I wanted to comment about the paid links. Its unreal — Google has a banner that tells others to report these paid links, which I learned from my website optimization consultant.

Taking that a step further, someone approached me via email [spam] about buying quality pagerank links and I responded. I purchased $600 in paid links. 1 month goes by, and Google is finding me with these links — I checked the webmaster tool.

3 months later, half of my links are removed from the sites [because it was a scam] and the other links are no longer valued by Google — the webmaster tool no longer shows any of the links.

Just my 2 cents.
