I would assume that Matt Cutts receives enough email every day to occupy the entire 24 hours of the day.

Unless it was an easily answerable question, then I wouldn't really expect a reply either.

Matt has been speaking around the world on "paid links are evil!" and then he concludes with "paid links are still evil!" but I have yet to see Google actually lay down the law on every single site that sells links.

They have been very selective on which sites they penalize. Some sites do get penalized, others don't.

What's the deal with that. Seriuosly.

I think paid links with no human editting is the "evil" - selling links in of itself is not a bad thing. Atleast that is what I understood from Matts blog.

Jesus christ, I wish people would just stop whining. Buying links is better use of your time than whining about Google which leads ... where exactly? Tell me what good its going do to whine about something that clearly is never going to change?

When do I get to read a blog post that actually teaches me something new? Matt Cutts is evil. So what? How does that revelation going to make you rich? You blame Google, then you sit on your ass and waste time writing a meaningless email posing a question that's been asked a gazillion times already, and do nothing to change your sites you own, and feel alright about it because you got someone besides yourself to blame for your failure.

When are SEOs going to take the bull by the horns and pwn rankings instead of bitching about getting penalized, banned, and outranked by Wikipedia? Are there any SEO professionals out there who Google can't lift a finger on because they know what they're doing and are damn good at their jobs?

Yes there are. But you're not going to catch them whining about Matt Cutts not answering their emails.

"There are thousands upon thousands of sponsored links out there. Why is
Google trying to fight the battle that is useless?"

Thousands and thousands of people get killed every day. So I guess we should just let it happen, since we obviously can't stop every criminal out there.

If a girl says "I won't kiss you unless you freshen your breath" what are you gonna do? Argue with her that she should kiss you no matter what because that's what true love should be about or bitch that she is telling you what to do? If you were smart you'd just buy a breath mint.

This whole paid link thing sounds to me like 10,000 babies throwing a temper tantrum because someone took their candy away. There are still plenty of ways you can monetize your sites. There are still plenty of ways to gain rank. The only thing that is limiting you and holding you back from success is you. And the only person that's going to get you to where you wanna go is you. Not Google. And certainly not Matt Cutts.

"So what am I to conclude of this? Matt doesn’t care about responding to e-mails"

Come on man, you think Matt doesn't want to answer your emails? He doesn't have the time.

Google is not the government.

Webmasters need to stop allowing Google to control what they do. I'm just sick of Google trying to be the "bully" in the search industry by going out and penalizing sites. It's stupid.

The fact that I even wrote the article is stupid. There's no reason paid links should be an issue.
