I would agree with Nick totally ;) - use a variety of link text, but focus on what you're targeting.
Loved this quote:
"but did you know that there is a special keyword density that Google absolutely loves, that you can't go wrong with? That is the magical density that nobody, and i mean NOBODY is teaching you. Not Aaron, not Sullivan, Not SEoMoz. I reveal the secrets of keyword density that nobody has told in public before. Just changing your density can have a great effect on your rankings."
hehe
Beautiful...actually it's more like 14 seperate posts all covering "what's going on" in the SEM industry. Gret reading!
So the stanford daily goes from a PR9 to a PR7....so what...the toolbar pagerank was never accurate anyways (the toolbar is fairy dust green)...and it doesn't look like the stanford daily dropped any in rankings.....dropping it from a PR9 to a PR7 does what google wants anyways....now the price drops for the ads...but again....the stanford daily ranks just as it always did.....so does every other link selling PR9....now they're 7's...and ranking just the same....fairy dust folks.....one last FUD before they make it go away.
[edited out long rant....voices in my head saying "must stay under the radar"..."must not piss off matt" ;)]
First Looksmart kills Zeal, now Wisenut.....wonder if they're imploding on themselves.
I actually liked wisenut...really.
I think you streatched what I was saying, and the point I was making, to cover something I wasn't saying, on a point I wasn't making.
I don't think anyone should cheat anyone. eneough said.

To quote Danny "there's more and more evidence that Google is starting to go beyond the historical paid links punishment of not allowing you to pass PageRank love to actually downgrading your site"
First I've heard of that....in fact, I don't believe it today.
All huge sites that I've seen selling links for years...and have had PR blocked from passing for years, all still rank killer....I've yet to see or hear of a site that's been punished for selling ads....only PR Blocking filters imposed.

If it's just stuff like this:

then I don't think there's any cause for concern.
but if it's stuff like
http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&rls=GGLB,GGLB:1969-53,GGLB:en&q=mesothelioma+more:condition_treatment&cx=disease_for_patients&sa=N&oi=cooptsr&resnum=0&ct=col1&cd=1
(note "Labeled by" under search results), then there appears to be more of a human impact on rankings.
Note: (beta testing and kicking tires...posting links...and long links...will ya take these? )
