Notwithstanding Matt Cutts frequent warnings against buying/selling links on your site for SEO, if this isn't tacit approval I don't know what is:

Seriously, the search department and the adwords department need to get on the same page. :helpme:(

Pity the poor link ad network sellers/buyers caught in the middle of mixed messages

hehe :)

is that a dp screencap? lol

Google are greedy fucks :2 cents:

Google sucks!
They will say its ok for .10 per click today and then charge you $2 per click tomorrow!

Buying links is not the same as selling ads.

How does putting your button on my site give me more traffic?

Yeah, they do that.

they have to be pretty lenient on that, or I could just buy a bunch of links, point 'em to a competitor and laugh as they are delisted.

I haven't seen that happen. But I agree with you... selling the ads is a crock.

what a worthless post

Yeah it's fucked up considering what they did to payperpost.com/izea for the grave "sin" of selling links/facilitating link selling on blogs :helpme

Here's another nugget
