Do Google and Overture Rock?

[JeremySF]

I just found this about Google and Overture...

"Google and Overture rock!

The days of free traffic are not completely over, but certainly fading away at a rapid pace.

Sure, you can work hard to create pages that score high in the search engines and build sweat equity into a site.

But by paying for clicks and focusing on Google and Overture you will have the top three positions on all search engines that really count on the Internet. If you want to generate traffic from Yahoo, you need to be on top of Google, it's as simple as that.
Overture and especially Google are the best key drivers of qualified traffic on the Internet.


* Pay-per-click search engines let you quickly test different
affiliate offers and new landing pages on your site.

* When it works, you can scale.

* Stay away from top competitive keywords for $1 to $2 per click.
Niche marketing on Overture and Google works."

Or if you know how to work google and SE's, there will always be us seo's getting free traffic. Go ahead and pay for your listings. But the fact remains, in order to have a GOOD search engine, there will have to be relevant pages that aren't paid listings.
