Default Google hates paid links for PR

Google hate webmasters selling or buying links for PR but still allow people to advertise such services through their sites.

This just goes to show the double standards they employ - it is all right when someone is using their advertising to promote paid links But when you do it - you get penalized!
Thanks for pointing it out GKD!

The webmaster selling the links will probably get penalised by Google at a later date but the funny thing is, the source from where visitors came from would be Googles ad network.

Double standards, but they are Google.

Can someone explain what is meant by 'double standards, what am I missing here?

is it because that image was an adswords advert? If yes, then like I said, report it and it will be pulled.

Google can't be blamed for a rogue advertiser

Why paid links..? because there are marketplace for webmaster. Why Google restricted us to paid links while Google cached our website for free.

Some say that Google is itself doing what it doesn`t want others to do.

If you buy a Google Mini from them, then you get to post your testimonial on that page which includes a solid PR 7 link pointing to your site without their forced tag “rel=nofollow”.

In other words, a backlink, which is paid for.

I checked back and here`s a story going back sometime about the outrage of some towards Google`s attitude to pad for links.

PR 8 Links from Google.com Only $1,995

And a link to the `Success Stories` which are the cause for concern among some.

Google universal search Superstar Awards - Success Stories
