Report paid linking

    I have been in touch with a lot of directory owners, free and paid.

    Also blog network owners and many have lost PR and SERPs ranking.

    I think it is simply from Googles new 'Report Paid Listings'

    For those who report paid listings, DP is a gold mine for these rats.

    Killing a persons business because Google says so is slimy.

    I think the whole directories situation and blog network problems is as simple as that.

    If you own a network hide the urls somehow or they will be next.

    Interlinking paid directories have felt Googles 'big stick'

    Free directories seem ok as they are mostly individual and not networked.

    I think 3 in your network may get away with it and yes if they are free.

    But some big paid directories have dozens all interlinked and owned by the same individuals.

    I know some blog networks also got hit.

    I have tried a lot of directories some paid as well. So far there is no help in getting more traffic.
