That's hilarious :)
Funny - apparently Feedburner is buying links from me - gotta check my mailbox for that check!
Paid link detector software, what a load of crap. I do feal sorry for anyone who did spend $40 on it to see results like that. So with all those paid links it says you have, all that money you can take a long vacation now until next months checks roll in as well. :)
At the same time, kudos to them for trying - this is a Beta so if they keep with it, and have the resources to do so, it may well turn into something useful.
Well, we all knew that Google was evil, so this really isn't surprising at all!
(Hoping it didn't expose the links I was buying from Ralph!)
w3.org are also buying links
The tool is crap. I have no paid links on aimClearBlog and it flagged over 20 as paid. This made my day.
It appears that I should be expecting a check from everyone whose site I've linked to. Like the US Patent and Trademark Office is going to pay me to link to them. Right.
It looks like these folks need to have some serious second thoughts about the efficacy of their tool. It doesn't do what it says it does. There are no paid links on my site, but according to these guys, every link is a paid one.
Can you sue an item of software for slander?
Has anyone seen the results when you run Google itself through there? :P
Well after musing about how you might go about creating such a tool effectivly I wrote a brief article http://paymentblogger.com/2007/10/07/how-to-find-a-paid-link/
Interestingly the authors of the Tool from this article replied his comment on how their magical system works was
-----------Brandon from Text link Center -------------------

Anyway needless to say when asked for some basic methodolodgy he decided not to :) his tool is completely worthless as I said in the article I used a domain which I've been testing and linking directly to another domain to test some link weighting experiments so I know they have value ;) that test could be ran a 1000 times each time the result would be the same the "magic" test would fail.
Yeah, if anything they qualify for the "Baloney of the Year Award 2007".
"Agenda driven", sure. Show me one non-"agenda driven" link anywhere and I'll show you an entirely different Web. Or a version of homo sapiens sapiens not yet evolved, for that matter.
And claiming that linkage on your own sites doesn't serve you with the search engines reveals a degree of cluelessness (or satirical chuzpe...) that beggars all description.
Hell, even the publicized version of Google's PageRank tech says otherwise!
You mean it really wasn't a joke? That makes it all the more funny!
Ｉdoubt the software can do any good for checking real paid link. everyone is using paid link ini certain degree. for example, yahoo directories, business.com, some directoreis, they are paid link.
so what's the point of having a software that detect pay links. I think google try to fear someone by saying "penalize on sites that offer pay links". since it tries to modified the search engine result just like google boombing on george bush website. So what's the point of having the software???

Totally offtopic but and I don't wish to sound misery guys by my highly targetted link is nofollowed and the rather spammy link of SEOAsia is not don't mind which way they are but any chance of it being consistent?
Jill they actually have a business model but like their amazing tool and its methodolodgy I feel it may be equally as "magic" but will no doubt go, build crappy tool, tell everyone that buying links is not safe, then offer their own "magical" links which are safe. We all rejoice and the world is saved.
I do feel sorry for them but not enough to give them to much slack we have enough headless chickens running round the farm we don't need to be handing out free axes
"we don't need to be handing out free axes"
So you're seriously not into "SEO Bloodbath, Sq. 14" headlines? LOL
That's an interesting catch Tim... I was under the impression that ALL links in the comments were nofollowed.
