I just link for the purposes of getting people to my site and advertising it's resources. Overall the linking pans out and you get rankings in the search engines anyway... do what makes you money and be customer focused is the best bet. When you logically think about how a search engine is set up, there's no way all the good sites can get the rankings and traffic they deserve so that's why it's best to diversify your advertising and not soley rely on the SE's.

Google suggests that one way to promote your site is to get inbound links. Then they penalize you for buying paid links. Of course I know that paid links shouldn't have the same value as natural links, but they shouldn't get you penalized either. I like Google, but when a company becomes a monopoly they become dangerous. Microsoft did great things for the PC and helped create the technology and Internet boom we are living in now, but they also hurt other companies that might have done even more (we will never know). Now Google is dominating and is on the edge of becoming the next Microsoft. The paid links issue really gets me boiling. Google suggests that one way to promote your site is to get inbound links.
