One in the real world, and the second is a digital tree with a link to your site...When it was posted to sphinn originally, it was desphunn to it's doom, but it sparked an interesting discussion that crosses over more than just the taboo of paid linking, to the question of morality in accepting money to become green.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[With new lists of &quot;Google Trusted Social Sites&quot; popping up now and again, I think that we need to take a good look at Social bookmarking as a marketing means. The question is this: If links continue to be a dominant factor in SEO, and Social Bookmarking sites offer effective inbound links with relevant anchor text that are fed to Google via RSS, is it bad practice to submit your own site to these social bookmarking websites? Another thing to consider is if you are being paid to do SEO for another person, you of course are going to be looking for the most effective means to get them to the top of the serps. If that is link building, is it ethical for your SEO expert to social bookmark your client? Or is that spamming?<br/><br/>2 Vote(s) ]]></description>
