Exelinca, I reckon you’ve been lucky and that Google hasn’t found out yet because if they did your page rank would be a big fat 0!

You’re right. My blog is full of paid post. Yesterday Google slap my pagerank from 3 to 2. Yeah, I know the risk.

I was Google Slapped on two of my blogs and I still make money from them doing paid ads. The PR to me isn’t all that important, its the SERP that counts.

They don’t care about your future page rank as long as they can feed off your current one. A no follow link is of no use to them as all they are looking for is to prop up their own PR. Personally I would prefer to pay for a no follow link on a high traffic site than to have a do follow on a low traffic site that disappears into the archives.

why would they request a dofollow link when they know for a fact that by giving them a dofollow link its hurting your pagerank with google and it can give you a zero page rank as a result

its great to get paid for blogging but not when google penalizes you and decides to drop your page rank, google isn't very precise about what there looking for when they do take action and hurt your efforts by dropping your page rank especially when you work so hard to achieve such a feat almir´s Last blog post..Vital Tips That Can Aid Any Blogger

I suppose the main difference Nathan is exposure as when you pay for paid posts it’s so that many bloggers can take the task thereby giving you more presence on the net.

I honestly can’t see the difference between paying for posts and having a writer on your company staff. Either way, it’s someone promoting something. It may seem more genuine if it comes from without, but idea of employing a writer is still there. From the consumer side, I guess I do appreciate knowing if it’s sponsored though.

I’m sure Google would prefer it but I don’t think the advertiser would appreciate it.
