I’ll wait and see if Google is really going to do paid reviews.

Google is getting into this ’sin’ business. If this is true, I won;t call them God anymore :p

BTW, which of the paid posting companies do not require permanent link?

Wonder if they’ll smack us for doing their paid reviews? :) As for Nuffnang, I think if your Malaysian/Asian traffic is high then it translates into ads. I don’t have many other options so I just leave them there and enjoy the thrill of getting an ad or two

It would be interesting to see how Google manages paid reviews by themselves (if indeed they choose that path). Would they be first to stipulate to their advertisers that links are nofollow? ;)

As for Nuffnang, I am at two minds about taking them off my blogs. Advertisers are few and rare to want to advertise at my blogs. Not that I don’t have any traffic to show. I am just wondering whether they can sustain their business pace. With the same amount of space, I am now making at least 10x more with another advertiser (you know which one). Should I weed them out? I am willing to support them but if the amount of exposure I give to them (through page impressions) is far more than what they could reciprocate, then I may have to seriously think about weeding them off.
