		<description>All the controversy aside mate, sounds like you're making a real impact with your blogging profession.  Wish I was still part of the game, life in London simply wouldn't allow it though unless I was making enough to pay the bills ;)

PEACE!</description>

		<description>Woa really?  Do you have some URLs for me?  This is interesting, I never really thought about it in that perspective because I still believe that money can't buy everything.  Most sites won't sell links anyway so this wouldn't work as a whole even if a lot of people are doing it.  For example, despite what you may think from what I wrote, I've turned down companies wanting to buy links from me, and all you see from by blog(s) are free links so far, exclusive to friends and real affiliates.  So I guess I'm just luring for controversy!  ;)</description>

		<description>Oh yeah I forgot. More to the point of your article. If everybody sold links, wouldn't that just screw up ranking by relevance and make your search results only show you the sites with the most money? I'd rather see what people link to without being paid for it.</description>

		<description>Actually, you stole this idea from the likes of W3C and WordPress. Google has a name for it actually, its called &lt;i&gt;link fraud&lt;/i&gt;. It can get all sites involved banned from the Google index. Although W3C and WordPress are still in there because they paid Google a ton of money and promised not to do it again. But most sites just get banned without the option of paying.</description>
