The results are in from our poll asking whether you report paid links or not.
After Google’s propaganda and the publicity behind the issue I was expecting more people to have reported paid links. The full results are below:
- No – 72%
- Yes – 17%
- Not yet but I probably will – 11%

I’ll leave the detection to the algorithm.
Hello!
We added your blog to our site: http://www.recentnews.co.uk
We develop a portal, collect the news and blog posts.
Kind regards
All the publicity & propaganda has only highlighted one thing…. its them against us! Like Marketing hub said… let the algorithm detect it!
i’m with Marketing Hub. it’s not my business.
Agreed! Google makes enough money to hire and program the necessary tools to detect these links themselves. Don’t do their job for them.
Wasn’t a NARC in the 80’s, not going to be one now.
my goodness, i love pie graphs
I think the question, that still remains somewhat ambiguous, is… what constitutes a paid link?
Si
I agree with Simon – the definition of “paid” is still confusing to me.
Dare i say that almost all websites have paid for some listings in one form or another…
Google should make it to find the paid links throught their own technology to solve the problem. otherwise, it may cause more problems. What if someone intensionally trapped his competitors by reporting the paid links, which are created by himself, not his competitors.
Only if site is competing with me
