Good news for bloggers who once sold text link ads but drop the idea because fearing that Google might de-rank or de-index your blog again. Linkworth, ad network with text advertising service similar to Text-Link-Ads is now allowing you to put an optional "nofollow" in text links you sell.
LinkWorth, however does not encourage you to put this option on, but if you want to make money from selling text links again and avoiding punishment from the big G, this looks your only option.
Where’s this option?
To turn nofollow on for every future text links you sell, go to my sites -> manage sites. Click on settings icon under Actions and look for "Additional Website Settings".
Follow or Nofollow. What’s the difference?
We really don’t have to go through this again. Those who previously been selling text links know the consequences when Google came smacking the site with either a PR0 or contents totally remove from Google index. That directly leads to tremendous traffic drop, the organic traffics of course.

As long as you dont have any obvious text above your links that you sell. ie sposored links etc you should be ok!
Google can’t prove that any link on your page was sold unless you have a link to the company buying selling links on your site, like linkworth.
Linkworth doesnt require you to link to them, so all should be fine.

is it ok to add a linkworth ads in my site with adsense ads?..
Replyhongkiat July 3rd, 2008
@ghing Yes, Linkworth ads are text ads, as long as you don’t try to make AdSense contextual and Linkworth look similar to each other or putting them side by side, you should be safe.

I’m with “Free bets” on this one – how can Google possibly know you’ve been paid for an ad if you don’t in some way link to a known ad broker?
ReplyIndiana November 25th, 2008
Rod, Google will know you sold links because all legitimate ads either have the “nofollow” attribute, or go through an intermediary site. This is the new law of the land, so be sure you know the law. Otherwise, you risk losing your Google traffic. Buying links might work, but that is expensive and somewhat unethical. Make a good site, with tons on “original” content, and you’ll get traffic.

Needed some advice from you guys. I am on the other end. I own Crazy Dog T-shirts. I use linkworth to buy up links. Could this negatively affect me in google?
