-
More and more, I’ve been seeing people wondering if they’ve lost traffic on Google because they were detected to be selling paid links. However, Google’s generally never penalized sites for link selling.
-
A federal judge this week granted Google’s motion to dismiss a suit that alleged the company manipulated search results in its powerful Web index.

Googlers like to think of their company as the Web’s library. But as Web sites come up with more ways to wring profit from online advertising and sales–often using methods that Google opposes–a better analogy might be the Web’s watchdog.
