    "Kontera DynamiContext Plugin helps you to easily add Kontera ads to wordpress posts, but this plugin may be unknowingly stealing google juice from your websites.
    The plugin adds some unwanted hidden links to blog footer that are invisible to website visitors but are visible to search engines..."

    • Kontera is (IMO) ugly, and I avoid clicking on the links...
    • ...One Wordpress plugin author now adds five hidden links in the footer.
    • This can really hurt your SEO.

    Your welcome.
    I'm surprised the plugin author would expect to get many happy users (once the word gets out)
